As a native of the Philly burbs, I say that your favorite cheesesteak is the one at the restaurant you grew up nearest! For me it's Provolone and hot peppers, nothing else necessary! Glad you enjoyed it!
Yes Sir Provolone, onions, and sweet & hot peppers. Never Whiz. I'm from Newark but I have family all over Philly. Hell, my cousin and her kids come up for church every Sunday.
The guys from JOLLY consulted a local chef who clued them in. The first two places are for tourists. But Angelo's is hands down the local FAVORITE. Ketchup, mustard and relish. Oh, no !! That's practically sinful !!
I was about ready to say that JOLLY went there and was told that Pat’s and Geno’s are a touristy spot I hope someday, I can try a genuine Philly cheesesteak.
I don't really like the flavor of cheesesteaks I have tried so I would probably be using hot sauce.😆I am an Angeleno by birth and alot of my young life so Mexican Spices is what I grew up with.
@@patricialavery8270 If the place has it as an option, I'd suggest getting long hots on it if you're craving some spice with your cheesesteak. They're a type of pepper which I believe is grown in Italy and are very popular amongst the Philly Italian American population
Bc I’m a fan of Beef on Weck I understand the ketchup thing with the cheese whiz but not with the last sandwich, my favorite, that needs to be eaten as it comes, minus the green peppers (PTSD from my childhood). ❤❤❤
@@MJKeenan30I don't know who gave that bad info, but I'm from Philly & we always put ketchup on cheese steaks. I don't know anybody that puts hot sauce on their cheese steak s, but ketchup is almost always put on.
@@keitht24 These people that are acting like no one puts ketchup on cheesesteaks are so clearly not from the philly area, bunch of pretenders. I bet they don't even know what like cooper cheese is.
As a native Philadelphian, I suggest going to a real cheesesteak place, Pat's and Gino's are only TV famous, not because they're good, they do get busy because the good places are already closed when the bars close. If you're in Philly basically prior to midnight, go to Jim's or Angelo's, they're soooooo much better!
I've gotta try Dalessandros again because when I had it it was meh. I did order it at like 9:30 pm for delivery. The woman who took my order was LOVELY, tho.
I live near both Gino's and Pat's but my all time favorite is Jim's Steaks on S. St. Oh my goodness, they never disappoint and have a smooth operating system so even waiting is kept to a minimum as best they can.
Philly suburbs gal here. First, you both are delightful. So entertaining and genuine. Second, like others from the Philly area, I was screaming at my screen with the condiments. Ketchup is acceptable but definitely no hot sauce, relish, or mustard!!! I prefer provolone, American, or cooper sharp over whiz. I’m so glad you went to Angelo’s because you were able to verify what all the locals know… Geno’s and Pat’s are for the tourists. There are hundreds of places better than them. Great reaction!!!
@@AllisonFields-s7m Literally anywhere else. Geno's and Pat's are tourist traps. They make and serve the cheapest, grossest possible product, akin to food you would get at Six Flags. They're there for the visual spectacle, not for good food.
Okay: I’ll take a break from getting ready to be hammered by Hurricane Milton here in Florida and watch you guys eat cheesesteaks instead. Life is good.
Those are Biscotti cookies or biscuits, you're suppose to dip them into your hot coffee & that's why they're so crunchy so they don't disintegrate in your hot drink. We have many different varieties but my favorite is probably the pistachio or macadamia nuts & chocolate. Really good & you should try a stroopwaffle which is like a flat waffle cone that has got usually carmel in between two stroopwaffles & then you lay one on top of your hot coffee or tea or hot chocolate & it warms up & melts the Carmel a little & u can dip it in the hot drink & it's very good also.
Nowadays, cheese whiz is plastic crap, back in the day the original cheese whiz was real cheese and it was delicious. Kind of the way Philadelphia cream cheese went from delicious authentic cream cheese to waxy artificial poop. Greed destroys everything.
@@gregkeener911 Provolone OK on a cheesesteak, but American is definitely the best. If you have Cooper American, that is the best of all choices. If you want to talk provolone, put that on some good Italian bread with pistachio infused mortadella, roasted red peppers, balsamic and oil and I’m a happy man.
Seriously! A bunch of places started using it over the past few years, and its like cheese steak leveled up a few levels. I've also noticed that a lot of places aren't chopping their meat up as much for the sandwiches..which makes for a more solid and taster steak on your sandwich.
Ohh yeah, Cooper Sharp is fantastic on a cheesesteak. I had a really terrific breakfast sandwich; organic over hard egg, Taylor pork roll, and Cooper sharp cheese, best breakfast sandwich in years, I forgot on a poppy seed Kaiser ! From a place called Haddon Culinary, see my review on Google maps.
That was so satisfying for me, seeing you two finally getting the Philly cheesesteak experience. I was impressed with your San Diego trip as well, -as I also lived there a few years(and I think you said you do now? Awesome!).
P.S. You should go to an Italian deli and get an Italian sub sandwich..and an order of Italian sausage and peppers either bas a sub or as a side. and definitely some freshly made cannoli's and a slice of ricotta cheesecake. Yum!!
Thanks for the advice! we have just uploaded another video from Philadelphia! where we tried Hoagies and more!!! let us know what you think. th-cam.com/video/gUYgi59eph0/w-d-xo.html
Yes, the roll is important to get it right. Other parts of the country try to make them but they can't get the bread right. The rolls typically come from Amoroso's bakery, right across the river in NJ.
If you’re feeling brave try scrapple. It’s basically the trimmings of pork and beef which is mulched (put through the chopper) then mixed with gelatin then cooked and chilled into a loaf shape. It’s a breakfast thing. It’s kinda like modern headcheese but better. Oddly only available in Pennsylvania. Also the Amish buffet is a tourist trap and not really truly Amish. I know a few cafes that do Amish food but it’s deep in Amish territory near Punxsutawney. Just be sure not to run into the breaking Amish cast. They all were shunned from the Amish community for participating in the show. I know most of them still live around that area still but they keep to themselves.
No philadelphian eats at either genos or pats nor do they put cheese whiz. Usually we eat it with provolone, onions, chopped NOT sliced and ketchup if you want. Who puts hot sauce on a cheesesteak? I prefer Jims on South St or Delsandros in Roxborough.
My nonna, ( grandmom ) came over from Italy, used to cook us cheesesteaks as kids on Sundays. Such a tradition here-happy to see you tried it and found a good one to enjoy!
Ugh. I’m from NE Pennsylvania and no one went to Pat’s or Geno’s. The best place are mom and pop pizzerias. No ketchup or mustard. And Cheez Whiz is recent. Authentic cheesesteaks had provolone or American cheese.
If you want a cheesesteak with a lot of meat try Dalassandro's. Nick's Roast Beef has good cheesesteaks too. Provolone cheese is good too. It gives it a little bite to it
@@brandonneumann5294 How does ketchup ruin the flavor? What are you even talking about? Everybody in Philly puts ketchup on their cheese steak. It's as normal as putting ketchup on a cheeseburger. They're aren't any cultural taboos about putting ketchup on a cheese steak in Philly.
@@keitht24 of all the videos I’ve seen of Philly cheesesteaks I’ve never seen someone put ketchup on it. Ketchup is a kids condiment. For it water down the great flavor of a cheesesteak is sad
@@brandonneumann5294 I don't care about whatever random Internet videos you've watched. I'm a Philly native, born & raised. I don't even know anyone who doesn't put ketchup on their cheese steak. "Ketchup is a kids condiment". Huh? I don't even know what you mean. You're a tourist, trying to tell a Philly native about his own city. Stock to what you know.
I almost died when you put ketchup and other condiments on. But it was at the 2 worst places, along with cheez whiz 🤢! Angelo’s does it RIGHT ! Glad you enjoyed !
LOL...I was screaming "sacrilege" when I watched that too. I couldn't believe she was actually told to put ketchup on the cheesesteak. An awesome Philly Cheesesteak WIT doesn't require condiments at all. The meat, salt, pepper, cheese, onions, roll, and meat fat do it all. Sometimes a little garlic is also nice.
@@thebritstry we had a spot in va beach that was amazing. But the family that owned it sold it when he was ready to retire. The guy that reopened it even though he had worked with the family for years. Changed the who they ordered the food from. It was a much cheaper vendor. The food was never the same again. I really miss that place. I’ve never had as good cheese steak again in my home town.
@@jeffhampton2767 Totally agree. Went to visit family and every time I visit it honestly makes me proud to be American as weird as that may sound. For context, I'm from Texas so of course our architecture is different.
@@m-jay356 Yes I was wondering where you were from. I grew up in the 1960s and 70s on the edge of Philadelphia. I'm still in Pennsylvania. On the north and west side of Philadelphia there is beautiful countryside and towns many from the late 1600s and 1700s you will find architecture built by the Brits before the revolution. Places like Washington's crossing, New Hope, Yardley, you will feel like you're in England and colonial America, also a lot of Victorian homes. Colonial Williamsburg Virginia is very stunning. AMERICA started in Philadelphia Pennsylvania.
@@m-jay356 Hopefully you got to see Philadelphia City Hall and the Art museum. Gettysburg civil war sites are nice so is Lancaster Amish Pennsylvania Dutch country. Pennsylvania has 300 miles of lush mountains with wilderness and wildlife, hundreds of waterfalls and the Pennsylvania grand canyon.
Shame you went to the 2 tourist trap locations. You can get a better sandwich at any neighborhood pizza shop. And instead of putting ketchup on it, you can order it with sauce. The meat is usually a rib-eye meat, cooked in a seasoned oil. Updated: Never been to Angelo's but it looks a lot like what you'd find in any neighborhood shop. Glad you enjoyed it! Either way, Philadelphia welcomes you, and we appreciate your visit!
I'm from Philly born and raised... Always try a cheesteak plain that's with onions sometimes mayo... You want to see how well that sandwich stands up by itself ... Next go around you get a cheese steak with wiz and onions the next with cooper cheese and the other with the works ... If your bold enough you get a cheese steak hoagie style tomato and peppers on the side that's one you get when you go off to neighborhood spots or sections ... Good luck and good eating... 😋😜🤪...👍😁💯...
I’m not from the area but I attended Drexel. If we were sober enough to drive, we’d go to Pat’s (Provolone wit). Jim’s on South before Sunday Phillies games.
I have had Pat's, Geno's, Max's, Ishkabibbles and the steak place in Reading Market so far. Max's was the best. Wanna try Angelos and Dalessandros next. Pat's and Geno's are tourist traps to me. I don't like either and the cheez wiz, I just can't. I always drive to Philly from NYC to hang out. Next road trip I will try the other two.
Any exit from Exit 8 down to the Maryland State line you can get off and get a good cheesesteak from NYC to Philly. Save time and get one in South Jersey.
First, I really like the pure honesty of your reactions and reviews. When it comes to a Philly Cheesesteak I always thought they are ok but just not nearly as good as a Chicago Italian Beef. I'm sure folks from the east side of the US probably feel the other way around. How about you guys?
Thank you for your kind words! It's always interesting to hear the different perspectives on regional foods. Both the Philly Cheesesteak and Chicago Italian Beef have their unique flavors.
This is the second video I'm watching since I just subscribed. Good thing I held off on mentioning these two cheesesteak joints on the other video, Yes, Pat's and Geno's ARE tourist traps. The high majority of locals do not go to them. They are not bad cheesesteaks and do the job, but many here go to other spots around the city and the suburbs depending on where you live. Most of those are family owned and unique, not where they are a chain restaurant. I know I mentioned Angelo's on your hoagie video, but it is great to see that you went there. Yeah, you have to order in person or by phone. No online orders. And yes, you have to wait for a little bit longer than most places because of how busy it is and that they make great food. Worth waiting for. Another thing... just call it a cheesesteak. My fellow residents will give you the stink eye if you say "Philly cheesesteak" while ordering one IN PHILADELPHIA. As I said in the hoagie video, Philadelphians traditionally get their cheesesteaks with just 3 ingredients... the steak, cheese and onions. That's it. Usually it is plenty flavorful without anything else on it. Oh, I'm originally from New York, but it is a big no no to tell the locals any comparison between the two cities that are less than 90 miles apart. There is no big decision to make. Out of these 3 joints you went to, it is Angelo's. Hands down. Glad you two loved it.
Thanks for sharing your thoughts! It's always great to hear from someone who knows the local scene. Angelo's is definitely a gem, and I appreciate the tips on ordering!
You're welcome! Angelo's is the only spot that can get rated ahead of John's Roast Pork, but those two set the standard. Jim's Steaks... the South Street location. It re-opened on May 1st after a fire gutted their place July 2022. See the Magic Garden space. Dalessandro's Steaks and Hoagies... it is in the Roxborough neighborhood of Philadelphia, roughly 15 minutes from downtown Joe's Steaks & Soda Shop... if you like a diner kind of setting. Be sure to get a milkshake with it. Woodrow's Sandwich Shop... they put a bit of a twist on a cheesesteak with truffle cheese In Philadelphia's inner western suburbs, try DELCO Steaks. Their original location is on West Chester Pike in Broomall.
People get so worked up and condescending about doing things a certain way even though it's not their tastebuds experiencing it! Don't worry about a thing, you guys are golden. Now I wish you would've put even more condiments on to see everyone's heads explode more 😂
@ 6:55 I love cherry peppers!! I always keep a gallon jar of Cosmo's cherry peppers here at home. They're so great sliced up on sandwiches or just by themselves!! Out of those 3 places, Angelo's is the true Philly Cheese-Steak. The other two were just cheap tourist sandwiches.
Hello my favorite Brits. I experienced my first cheesesteak in Baltimore and thought I had died and gone to heaven. Being originally from San Diego and now Seattle they just aren't a thing over here. You can find them but they are far from authentic. Fortunately they are pretty easy to replicate at home and I have made a few cheesesteak masterpieces in my own kitchen. I am definitely a beef lover so anything with beef is sure to rank high on my list. Its always so much fun watching you experience these uniquely American foods. I honestly didn't realize the great variety of regional foods spread across the country. Happy travels guys. ♥ Mila and Rich in Seattle. ♥
Yes! I'm a Baltimore native. I've been in Philly area for decades but the best Philly cheesesteak I've ever had was in Bmore. All of my Philly friends hated on that until they tried it. None would concede that it was better but they said it came "very close" to their favorite cheesesteak.
@@deejacks1 Got a parking ticket in from of that cheesesteak restaurant in my rental car. lol... Couldn't tell you the name of that place but as soon as I saw cheesesteak on the menu I had to have one. Yeah, your city is underrated. ♥
Philly girl here! Those are NOT the cheesesteaks that the locals eat, those are the cheesecakes that TOURISTS eat! We definitely do not put that orange glue like stuff on cheesesteak. YUCK!
My favorite version of a cheesesteak is with the beef, cheese and onions. Glad you found the best cheesesteak. They all looked good but Angelos looked the best.
1 - Your first sin - Cheese Whiz 2 - Your second sin - Ketchup Cheesesteak is with provolone, onions and bell peppers. That's it! Even all the way down here, we know that much.
You make a great point! A classic cheesesteak deserves to shine with the right ingredients. Provolone, onions, and bell peppers sounds like a delicious choice. We have just upload another video, let us know what you think?
Cooper Sharp cheese for the win with Angelos. Ix-nay on the etchup-kay, lovelies. Never ketchup. Steak, cheese, and onions are permissible. Fin. My husband grew up eating cheesesteaks with grilled green peppers added, so I grill them on the side and let him add his own. I never have almond biscotti without coffee- coffee is the main and biscotti is the side. And you guys are still so adorable- what an evolution from those 'beignet' car videos in California!
Thanks for sharing your thoughts on cheesesteaks! It sounds like a delicious combination with the grilled green peppers. And you're right, coffee and biscotti would be a match made in heaven!
Not sure how i feel about the cheez wiz. Not sure if thats a traditional philly way to make it but something about the overly processed nature of the product turns me off. I think I'd prefer a white cheddar or something along those lines. Anyway going to keep going with the video. Hope you guys had fun.
I grew up in NE Pennsylvania in the 70’s and 80’s and no one put Cheez Whiz crap on cheesesteaks. It was originally provolone, but in my time American cheese was also available. And no one put ketchup or mustard on it. 🤢
Just finished video and yes Angelo's is exactly what I think of when I think ideal cheese steak. Looked amazing. Heck I'd eat that BREAD all by itself.
Ketchup on a cheese steak has been around since it's inception. The cheesesteak was a poor man's sandwich. I've been putting ketchup on my cheesesteak for over 50 years. Absolutely acceptable.
I'm 63 and have never seen anyone put ketchup on a cheese steak...lol Granted, I don't live in Philly, but I'm close enough to go there when I want a great cheese steak
Hey there y'all, I'm originally from Delco Pa, with South Philly roots, thanks another great video! Pat's has always been a go to when in South Philly, and Pat's and Geno's are considered Tourist destinations. and yes there are so many great Mom n Pop Cheesesteaks throughout Philly, my other two go to spits are John's Roast Pork, there Cheesesteaks are great, but just outside Philly a little bit South in Delaware County (Delco) there is a multi generational family owned Leo's Cheese Steak's! Throughout Philly, Delco, Southern New Jersey all have great Mom and Pop Cheesesteaks Shops, I wish y'all would have tried some Italian Hoagies and Pizzas!! And for Cheese and Condiment choices, it's up to the individual, I myself like Cheese Whiz, with Cooper Sharp, Ketchup and Pickle's! And sometimes I'll add bacon n Russian dressing, kinda a Big Mac style Cheesesteak. Take care y'all, and safe travel's always.)
The best cheesesteak I ever had was in New Jersey off the turnpike, at a service plaza. I had the cheesesteak beef and cheese over fries with marinara sauce, was awesome.
Everyone saying ketchup doesn’t belong on a cheesesteak isn’t from Philly or the county . My whole life people have put it on their cheesesteak, it’s 100% normal for locals.
@@Jc-pu3cx I didn't give an opinion on whether it's good or not, I'm just saying all the people acting like it's unusual don't know what they are talking about because it's super common in philly.
@@thebritstry We live and we learn. 😄 Cheese whiz isn't real cheese 🤢However, light mayo, provolone, mushrooms, and onions on cheesesteak are absolutely delish. 😋😋😋 Looks like Angelo’s got it right. I’m so glad you enjoyed it. Be blessed!
I like loaded meat, toasted bread with olive oil. Provolone cheese, onions, a little mayo with extra Hotts chops finely. That’s it. Best cheese steak ever.
Phil here again...While I agree Angelo's is one of the best, you are entitled to pit any condiments you enjoy on top! Just make sure it's a good roll which is hard to find outside of the Tri-State area (PA, NJ & DE) and good meat. Also, if using American cheese, than a hood white American like Cooper Or Clearfield and some others. Enjoy!! You guys are great!
You need to go to Groton, CT, (the home of the Grinder), and try those out. I spent 18 months in Groton eating some of the best of these Sandwiches. You may very well love them too!!!
Hello, lovely people. Glad you've tried one of our national treasures. A little history -- I live in the Great Lakes region, so I'm guaranteed to be left out of the best comfort foods. Arby's used to sell the "Philly Beef n Swiss", a very good sandwich. But I had to move to the South to get even a half-good cheese steak. I made up my mind to make my own. Steak buns, Steak-Umm shaved sirloin, coarse-chopped onion/red bell/green bell peppers. Liberal mayo on the buns, break the Steak-Umms lengthwise, season, stack, top withh chopped veggies for cooking. (I use the oven.) 2minutes before they're done (about 13min), topmwith your choice of cheese. I use any of about 5 white cheeses. My grandson loves them.
My friends, having just watched both your Philly videos, Just wanted to say the chesesteak from Angelos and the Roast Pork from Johns are two of the best sandwiches in America. If you ever make another trip in this city, you must stop at Reading Terminal Market and back to Johns Roast Pork for their award winning cheesesteak. Cheers! You two a are a lovely couple.
We had an amazing time around Philadelphia and will definitely be back in the future! We have another Video uploading this afternoon from Philadelphia, let us know what you think!
@@thebritstry some are half dipped in chocolate also and there are the crispy ones and soft ones. I grew up on them in my house but the ones here don't nearly compare to the ones in Italy.
BEST CHEESESTEAKS IN PHILLY YOU HAVE TO GO TO ANGELO'S PIZZERIA. THEY ARE #1 AND DONT FORGET TO TRY THERE PIAZZA TOO, YUMMY. PATS AND GENOS ARE TOURIST TRAPS DONT GO THERE LOL. ALSO, THE READING TERMINAL MARKET IS GREAT TOO. PHILLY 500 RECOMMENDS THE PORK SANDWICH THERE WITH THE BROCOLI ROB AND PROVOLONE CHEESE.
Out here in the central states, Kansas and Oklahoma, the restaurants will put green bell peppers mixed in with the onions on their cheesesteaks. I learned to love cheesesteaks growing up on the central east coast and there it was onions only. So I don't like the peppers on my sandwiches. I always have to request they leave out the bell peppers now that I live in Kansas. And if they can't, I get a burger. My cheese choice is provolone, swiss, or white American...never wiz. Now, the sauce of choice for me is something that is just a personal choice of my own and that's thousand island dressing.
I always do Whiz and Provolone with grilled onions. The Cheez Whiz permeates all the meat, the provolone is the flavor cheese, onions add sweetness and moisture. I've already seen everyone else address the condiments being a faux pas, so I won't chastise you any further. I have to make my own Philly bread since I left the area and Cheez Whiz is hard to come by nowadays.
As a native of the Philly burbs, I say that your favorite cheesesteak is the one at the restaurant you grew up nearest! For me it's Provolone and hot peppers, nothing else necessary! Glad you enjoyed it!
Yep, provolone a must. But I also go for grilled onions too.
Onions, mushrooms and provolone. They are all good within 50 miles of William Penn.
Yes Sir Provolone, onions, and sweet & hot peppers. Never Whiz. I'm from Newark but I have family all over Philly. Hell, my cousin and her kids come up for church every Sunday.
As a kid in the 80s, we would get our’s by the acme off of Oregon Ave in South
Philly. My favorite is Angelos now though, I am in love with it lol
From Texas, always wanted to go to Philadelphia and have a proper cheese steak sandwich.

Yeah, DiNic's roast pork is legend.
Get the hot roast pork with long hots and broccoli rabe.

Angelo's is king of the cheesesteak in Philly right now. Dalessandros is personally my favorite, though.
Angelo’s was delicious! We would love to try dalesdandros next time
Dalessandro's is great but I don't get near them often.
I just commented about Dalessandro's. They blow those touristy spots out of the water.

Those are Biscotti cookies or biscuits, you're suppose to dip them into your hot coffee & that's why they're so crunchy so they don't disintegrate in your hot drink. We have many different varieties but my favorite is probably the pistachio or macadamia nuts & chocolate. Really good & you should try a stroopwaffle which is like a flat waffle cone that has got usually carmel in between two stroopwaffles & then you lay one on top of your hot coffee or tea or hot chocolate & it warms up & melts the Carmel a little & u can dip it in the hot drink & it's very good also.
Thanks for the suggestions !
Biscotti are called "twice baked" because they're for dunking into coffee, tea or cocoa
You guys are have such great rapport on the videos and great choice of Angelo’s which is legend for Philly cheesesteaks
Thank you so much for your kind words! It has made us both smile! 😊
I believe cheese wiz is an abomination. American White is acceptable,but provolone makes it truly best.
Yes you are right.
Nowadays, cheese whiz is plastic crap, back in the day the original cheese whiz was real cheese and it was delicious. Kind of the way Philadelphia cream cheese went from delicious authentic cream cheese to waxy artificial poop. Greed destroys everything.
I prefer the American, I’m just not a fan of provolone in general
@@gregkeener911 Provolone OK on a cheesesteak, but American is definitely the best. If you have Cooper American, that is the best of all choices. If you want to talk provolone, put that on some good Italian bread with pistachio infused mortadella, roasted red peppers, balsamic and oil and I’m a happy man.
Cheese Whiz is basically the nectar of the gods.
Nuke it and then drink it. Well, dip stuff in it anyway. 😅
Cooper Sharp for the choice of cheese. if you know, then you know 😏
Seriously! A bunch of places started using it over the past few years, and its like cheese steak leveled up a few levels. I've also noticed that a lot of places aren't chopping their meat up as much for the sandwiches..which makes for a more solid and taster steak on your sandwich.
Whoa someone who actually knows what is up in the comments, my man.
Ohh yeah, Cooper Sharp is fantastic on a cheesesteak.
I had a really terrific breakfast sandwich; organic over hard egg, Taylor pork roll, and Cooper sharp cheese, best breakfast sandwich in years, I forgot on a poppy seed Kaiser ! From a place called Haddon Culinary, see my review on Google maps.
P.S. you guys are adorable. Eating your way across America is top tier awesomeness. ❤️❤️❤️
Thanks so much!! We appreciate you taking the time to watch
Great Review. As a Philadelphian, Pat's & Geno's are tourist destinations(trap), Angelo's is one of the places locals get their sandwich from.
Thanks for the insight! It's always great to hear from a local. Angelo's was a hidden gem that we loved! we had a great time in Philadelphia😊
According to a local, they are tourist traps and I think I know what the local favorite is and who your winner will be.
Love the sunglasses, Nicola!!
Thank you! Andrew is not convinced by my sunglasses 😂
@@thebritstry girl, all I was thinking was YAS QUEEN!!! They are snazzy so Andrew can just deal with it, lol!
you two are funny in your bloopers.
Thank you for watching
My mouth is watering! Hope you guys have a great weekend! 🥰
We did and loved Philadelphia! We have more videos from Philly to come
That was so satisfying for me, seeing you two finally getting the Philly cheesesteak experience. I was impressed with your San Diego trip as well, -as I also lived there a few years(and I think you said you do now? Awesome!).
I have eaten hundreds of cheesesteaks. I pay $8.99 for my cheesesteaks. My local food store at the deli sells a half of cheesesteak for $4 😊
Wow! That’s a great deal! Thanks for watching
P.S. You should go to an Italian deli and get an Italian sub sandwich..and an order of Italian sausage and peppers
either bas a sub or as a side. and definitely some freshly made cannoli's and a slice of ricotta cheesecake. Yum!!
Thanks for the advice! we have just uploaded another video from Philadelphia! where we tried Hoagies and more!!! let us know what you think. th-cam.com/video/gUYgi59eph0/w-d-xo.html
Angelo's is at least a 30-45 min wait unless you're there when they open. They also bake their own bread fresh.
Yes, the roll is important to get it right. Other parts of the country try to make them but they can't get the bread right. The rolls typically come from Amoroso's bakery, right across the river in NJ.
If you’re feeling brave try scrapple. It’s basically the trimmings of pork and beef which is mulched (put through the chopper) then mixed with gelatin then cooked and chilled into a loaf shape. It’s a breakfast thing. It’s kinda like modern headcheese but better. Oddly only available in Pennsylvania. Also the Amish buffet is a tourist trap and not really truly Amish. I know a few cafes that do Amish food but it’s deep in Amish territory near Punxsutawney. Just be sure not to run into the breaking Amish cast. They all were shunned from the Amish community for participating in the show. I know most of them still live around that area still but they keep to themselves.
@@yugioht42 no its available in Maryland as well im 60 yrs old and I grew up on scrapple and eggs!
Scrapple is available everywhere if you look for it. I've been eating it in Florida for 50 years.
They had the scrapple in Reading Terminal 😊
So happy with your decision of who’s was the best! ❤
Thank you! it was so tasty...
No philadelphian eats at either genos or pats nor do they put cheese whiz.
Usually we eat it with provolone, onions, chopped NOT sliced and ketchup if you want. Who puts hot sauce on a cheesesteak?
I prefer Jims on South St or Delsandros in Roxborough.
Thanks for the advice! We loved Angelos
Angelo's is a solid pick.
How is John's Roast Pork?
@@bobbolondz2701it's fine I'm not a huge fan of that sandwich because I don't like broccoli rabe.
Facts. Genos is so trash. Lol
My nonna, ( grandmom ) came over from Italy, used to cook us cheesesteaks as kids on Sundays. Such a tradition here-happy to see you tried it and found a good one to enjoy!
Thanks for sharing the special meaning of cheesesteak to you ! We really enjoyed them! Thanks for watching
Ugh. I’m from NE Pennsylvania and no one went to Pat’s or Geno’s. The best place are mom and pop pizzerias. No ketchup or mustard. And Cheez Whiz is recent. Authentic cheesesteaks had provolone or American cheese.
That’s why we’re tried Angelos pizzeria! To see what else is available! Thank for sharing your thoughts
Oooh, provolone ,onions and mushrooms 😅
I so look forward to your videos, another great job well done.
Thank you very much! This comment means a lot and has made us smile
Here in Delco (Delaware County) we eat American cheese, not wiz, and NO ONE would ever put mustard on it
Thanks for sharing
I like mine with onions, green bell peppers, provolone cheese and MUSTARD. American cheese and cheese wiz are abominations!
Or relish!! Fail
If you want a cheesesteak with a lot of meat try Dalassandro's. Nick's Roast Beef has good cheesesteaks too. Provolone cheese is good too. It gives it a little bite to it
No ketchup on any type of streak sandwich
You're not from Philly. Everybody puts ketchup on their cheese steak.
@@keitht24 why? Just eat the sandwich. Why would you ruin the flavors?
@@brandonneumann5294 How does ketchup ruin the flavor? What are you even talking about? Everybody in Philly puts ketchup on their cheese steak. It's as normal as putting ketchup on a cheeseburger. They're aren't any cultural taboos about putting ketchup on a cheese steak in Philly.
@@keitht24 of all the videos I’ve seen of Philly cheesesteaks I’ve never seen someone put ketchup on it. Ketchup is a kids condiment. For it water down the great flavor of a cheesesteak is sad
@@brandonneumann5294 I don't care about whatever random Internet videos you've watched. I'm a Philly native, born & raised. I don't even know anyone who doesn't put ketchup on their cheese steak. "Ketchup is a kids condiment". Huh? I don't even know what you mean. You're a tourist, trying to tell a Philly native about his own city. Stock to what you know.
Good job guys enjoyed the video.
Thank you for taking the time to watch
I almost died when you put ketchup and other condiments on. But it was at the 2 worst places, along with cheez whiz 🤢!
Angelo’s does it RIGHT ! Glad you enjoyed !
Thanks for your input! We did ask if we should add ketchup
@@thebritstry Yes you did …but he said YES !
Bleah! Whiz and peppers? No thanks. Ketchup? Never!
Philadelphia is known for being assholes...they told you to do it to screw with you lol
LOL...I was screaming "sacrilege" when I watched that too. I couldn't believe she was actually told to put ketchup on the cheesesteak. An awesome Philly Cheesesteak WIT doesn't require condiments at all. The meat, salt, pepper, cheese, onions, roll, and meat fat do it all. Sometimes a little garlic is also nice.
Ok that last one was the right one. Omg!! That made me hungry
Yes! It was delicious! We could eat another right now
@@thebritstry we had a spot in va beach that was amazing. But the family that owned it sold it when he was ready to retire. The guy that reopened it even though he had worked with the family for years. Changed the who they ordered the food from. It was a much cheaper vendor. The food was never the same again. I really miss that place. I’ve never had as good cheese steak again in my home town.
I seriously would fly to Philly just to get that cheesesteak. That looked so good.
We would definitely recommend it if you have chance!
i love that you share the history of food. 😍 fun to see you try stuff.
Thanks for watching!
Thank you for your kind words!
Love biscotti cookies! Goes great with tea or hot chocolate or coffee if you drink coffee
So good! They would have been great with a coffee
Ketchup and relish on a cheesesteak? Condiments are meant for certain items. Ketchup for the fries, reliesh for the hot dogs.
love the architecture in Philly. Stayed at the W just 2 months ago
Philadelphia is considered to have some of the most beautiful architecture in the country. A lot from the 1600s and 1700s colonial AMERICA 😊
@@jeffhampton2767 Totally agree. Went to visit family and every time I visit it honestly makes me proud to be American as weird as that may sound. For context, I'm from Texas so of course our architecture is different.
@@m-jay356 Yes I was wondering where you were from. I grew up in the 1960s and 70s on the edge of Philadelphia. I'm still in Pennsylvania. On the north and west side of Philadelphia there is beautiful countryside and towns many from the late 1600s and 1700s you will find architecture built by the Brits before the revolution. Places like Washington's crossing, New Hope, Yardley, you will feel like you're in England and colonial America, also a lot of Victorian homes. Colonial Williamsburg Virginia is very stunning. AMERICA started in Philadelphia Pennsylvania.
@@m-jay356 Hopefully you got to see Philadelphia City Hall and the Art museum. Gettysburg civil war sites are nice so is Lancaster Amish Pennsylvania Dutch country. Pennsylvania has 300 miles of lush mountains with wilderness and wildlife, hundreds of waterfalls and the Pennsylvania grand canyon.
I don't care about the food in all your videos. You two adorable kids, you are so sweet, I just love watching you together.
You are so kind!! Your comment has really cheered us up!
Shame you went to the 2 tourist trap locations. You can get a better sandwich at any neighborhood pizza shop. And instead of putting ketchup on it, you can order it with sauce. The meat is usually a rib-eye meat, cooked in a seasoned oil.
Updated: Never been to Angelo's but it looks a lot like what you'd find in any neighborhood shop. Glad you enjoyed it!
Either way, Philadelphia welcomes you, and we appreciate your visit!
I'm from Philly born and raised... Always try a cheesteak plain that's with onions sometimes mayo... You want to see how well that sandwich stands up by itself ... Next go around you get a cheese steak with wiz and onions the next with cooper cheese and the other with the works ... If your bold enough you get a cheese steak hoagie style tomato and peppers on the side that's one you get when you go off to neighborhood spots or sections ... Good luck and good eating... 😋😜🤪...👍😁💯...
Thanks for your advice!! we have just uploaded another video from Philadelphia! let us know what you think. th-cam.com/video/gUYgi59eph0/w-d-xo.html
I’ve never never never heard or seen anyone putting ketchup on their cheesesteak.
Ketchup is EXTREMELY common.
A typical/standard order in Philly (not south Philly) is salt, pepper, ketchup, fried onions, American cheese.
Thanks for the advice!
@@Eggalitowhy would you ruin the flavor of a cheesesteak with ketchup? Such a waste
The biscotti are best dipped into hot tea or coffee, that's why they are so firm and crispy. Yes, most proper biscotti has anise to spice them up.
Oh yeah! a coffee would have been amazing with the biscotti. Thanks for the advice
Ketchup???? On Philly Cheesesteak????
You are not from the area.
I’m not from the area but I attended Drexel. If we were sober enough to drive, we’d go to Pat’s (Provolone wit). Jim’s on South before Sunday Phillies games.
@willenholly you've never had a real steak.
@@katyas-mom Sure I have. I worked for PECo for my Drexel co-ops. I was everywhere.
I Love Your Video That's Awesome ❤😂 Good Job
Thank you for watching!
I have had Pat's, Geno's, Max's, Ishkabibbles and the steak place in Reading Market so far. Max's was the best. Wanna try Angelos and Dalessandros next. Pat's and Geno's are tourist traps to me. I don't like either and the cheez wiz, I just can't. I always drive to Philly from NYC to hang out. Next road trip I will try the other two.
Any exit from Exit 8 down to the Maryland State line you can get off and get a good cheesesteak from NYC to Philly. Save time and get one in South Jersey.
First, I really like the pure honesty of your reactions and reviews. When it comes to a Philly Cheesesteak I always thought they are ok but just not nearly as good as a Chicago Italian Beef. I'm sure folks from the east side of the US probably feel the other way around. How about you guys?
Thank you for your kind words! It's always interesting to hear the different perspectives on regional foods. Both the Philly Cheesesteak and Chicago Italian Beef have their unique flavors.
tbh, Cheeze Whiz is not my favorite flavor . I prefer provolone, sauted spinach and onions , and mayo on a garlic bread roll.
Thanks for sharing! That sounds delicious 🤤
This is the second video I'm watching since I just subscribed. Good thing I held off on mentioning these two cheesesteak joints on the other video,
Yes, Pat's and Geno's ARE tourist traps. The high majority of locals do not go to them. They are not bad cheesesteaks and do the job, but many here go to other spots around the city and the suburbs depending on where you live. Most of those are family owned and unique, not where they are a chain restaurant.
I know I mentioned Angelo's on your hoagie video, but it is great to see that you went there. Yeah, you have to order in person or by phone. No online orders. And yes, you have to wait for a little bit longer than most places because of how busy it is and that they make great food. Worth waiting for.
Another thing... just call it a cheesesteak. My fellow residents will give you the stink eye if you say "Philly cheesesteak" while ordering one IN PHILADELPHIA. As I said in the hoagie video, Philadelphians traditionally get their cheesesteaks with just 3 ingredients... the steak, cheese and onions. That's it. Usually it is plenty flavorful without anything else on it.
Oh, I'm originally from New York, but it is a big no no to tell the locals any comparison between the two cities that are less than 90 miles apart.
There is no big decision to make. Out of these 3 joints you went to, it is Angelo's. Hands down. Glad you two loved it.
Thanks for sharing your thoughts! It's always great to hear from someone who knows the local scene. Angelo's is definitely a gem, and I appreciate the tips on ordering!
You're welcome! Angelo's is the only spot that can get rated ahead of John's Roast Pork, but those two set the standard.
Jim's Steaks... the South Street location. It re-opened on May 1st after a fire gutted their place July 2022. See the Magic Garden space.
Dalessandro's Steaks and Hoagies... it is in the Roxborough neighborhood of Philadelphia, roughly 15 minutes from downtown
Joe's Steaks & Soda Shop... if you like a diner kind of setting. Be sure to get a milkshake with it.
Woodrow's Sandwich Shop... they put a bit of a twist on a cheesesteak with truffle cheese
In Philadelphia's inner western suburbs, try DELCO Steaks. Their original location is on West Chester Pike in Broomall.
People get so worked up and condescending about doing things a certain way even though it's not their tastebuds experiencing it! Don't worry about a thing, you guys are golden. Now I wish you would've put even more condiments on to see everyone's heads explode more 😂
😂 thank you!
@ 6:55 I love cherry peppers!! I always keep a gallon jar of Cosmo's cherry peppers here at home. They're so great sliced up on sandwiches or just by themselves!!
Out of those 3 places, Angelo's is the true Philly Cheese-Steak. The other two were just cheap tourist sandwiches.
Thank you so much for your detailed response! We loved the Philly experience we had on our trip!
Hello my favorite Brits. I experienced my first cheesesteak in Baltimore and thought I had died and gone to heaven. Being originally from San Diego and now Seattle they just aren't a thing over here. You can find them but they are far from authentic. Fortunately they are pretty easy to replicate at home and I have made a few cheesesteak masterpieces in my own kitchen. I am definitely a beef lover so anything with beef is sure to rank high on my list.
Its always so much fun watching you experience these uniquely American foods. I honestly didn't realize the great variety of regional foods spread across the country. Happy travels guys. ♥ Mila and Rich in Seattle. ♥
Thank you Mika and Rich! Philadelphia is a great city and cheesesteaks are so good
Yes! I'm a Baltimore native. I've been in Philly area for decades but the best Philly cheesesteak I've ever had was in Bmore. All of my Philly friends hated on that until they tried it. None would concede that it was better but they said it came "very close" to their favorite cheesesteak.
@@deejacks1 Got a parking ticket in from of that cheesesteak restaurant in my rental car. lol... Couldn't tell you the name of that place but as soon as I saw cheesesteak on the menu I had to have one. Yeah, your city is underrated. ♥
I just love you guys! Good choice with zero condiments!😂😂❤❤
Thank you for taking the time to watch
I'd eat a cheese steak made by a Kensington ave zombie before I ate at Pat's or Geno's
Philly girl here! Those are NOT the cheesesteaks that the locals eat, those are the cheesecakes that TOURISTS eat! We definitely do not put that orange glue like stuff on cheesesteak. YUCK!
Ketchup on a cheesesteak?? IMO It's steak, provolone or American cheese, possibly with fried onions and/or tomato sauce.
NO!! Don't let us go!! I wanna see all the Angelo's filling drooling out on Andrew's beard! 😁
lol! Andrew definitely enjoyed that one
@@thebritstry 😁
no ketchup on a cheesesteak ahhhhhh
Thanks for the advice! we have just uploaded another video from Philadelphia, let us know what you think? th-cam.com/video/gUYgi59eph0/w-d-xo.html
My favorite version of a cheesesteak is with the beef, cheese and onions. Glad you found the best cheesesteak. They all looked good but Angelos looked the best.
Angelo's was delicious!! If you thought that looked good We have just uploaded another video from Philadelphia with Italian Hoagies!!!
Should dropped Andrew off to get in line while you parked
Why didn’t we think of that?!?! Great idea
@@thebritstryNope. She shouldn't walk around Philly alone. It's different when you from here and know to keep your head on a swivel.
1 - Your first sin - Cheese Whiz
2 - Your second sin - Ketchup
Cheesesteak is with provolone, onions and bell peppers. That's it!
Even all the way down here, we know that much.
You make a great point! A classic cheesesteak deserves to shine with the right ingredients. Provolone, onions, and bell peppers sounds like a delicious choice. We have just upload another video, let us know what you think?
NEVER ketchup or anything else on a cheesesteak.
Cooper Sharp cheese for the win with Angelos. Ix-nay on the etchup-kay, lovelies. Never ketchup. Steak, cheese, and onions are permissible. Fin. My husband grew up eating cheesesteaks with grilled green peppers added, so I grill them on the side and let him add his own. I never have almond biscotti without coffee- coffee is the main and biscotti is the side.
And you guys are still so adorable- what an evolution from those 'beignet' car videos in California!
Thanks for sharing your thoughts on cheesesteaks! It sounds like a delicious combination with the grilled green peppers. And you're right, coffee and biscotti would be a match made in heaven!
Not sure how i feel about the cheez wiz. Not sure if thats a traditional philly way to make it but something about the overly processed nature of the product turns me off. I think I'd prefer a white cheddar or something along those lines. Anyway going to keep going with the video. Hope you guys had fun.
I grew up in NE Pennsylvania in the 70’s and 80’s and no one put Cheez Whiz crap on cheesesteaks. It was originally provolone, but in my time American cheese was also available. And no one put ketchup or mustard on it. 🤢
Just finished video and yes Angelo's is exactly what I think of when I think ideal cheese steak. Looked amazing. Heck I'd eat that BREAD all by itself.
We really did have fun ! Philadelphia is a really nice city!
The condiments on the cheesesteak broke my soul. 😂😂
We did ask if we should add ketchup
Ketchup on a cheese steak has been around since it's inception. The cheesesteak was a poor man's sandwich. I've been putting ketchup on my cheesesteak for over 50 years. Absolutely acceptable.
I'm 63 and have never seen anyone put ketchup on a cheese steak...lol Granted, I don't live in Philly, but I'm close enough to go there when I want a great cheese steak
Ketchup on a cheesesteak is normal these ppl in comments are Karens
I'm in my 60's, grew up in NE PA from the 70's-80's and NO ONE ever put ketchup on a cheesesteak. Must be a new thing. Awful. Ruins the taste.
Hey there y'all, I'm originally from Delco Pa, with South Philly roots, thanks another great video! Pat's has always been a go to when in South Philly, and Pat's and Geno's are considered Tourist destinations. and yes there are so many great Mom n Pop Cheesesteaks throughout Philly, my other two go to spits are John's Roast Pork, there Cheesesteaks are great, but just outside Philly a little bit South in Delaware County (Delco) there is a multi generational family owned Leo's Cheese Steak's! Throughout Philly, Delco, Southern New Jersey all have great Mom and Pop Cheesesteaks Shops, I wish y'all would have tried some Italian Hoagies and Pizzas!! And for Cheese and Condiment choices, it's up to the individual, I myself like Cheese Whiz, with Cooper Sharp, Ketchup and Pickle's! And sometimes I'll add bacon n Russian dressing, kinda a Big Mac style Cheesesteak.
Take care y'all, and safe travel's always.)
Thanks for the advice and watching! we did try some of the other items you mentioned and we will upload the video on Saturday!
NEVER trust anyone who tells you to put ketchup on steak!!!
I cringed when I heard that guy recommend that.
The best cheesesteak I ever had was in New Jersey off the turnpike, at a service plaza. I had the cheesesteak beef and cheese over fries with marinara sauce, was awesome.
Sounds great! We want one😋
Everyone saying ketchup doesn’t belong on a cheesesteak isn’t from Philly or the county . My whole life people have put it on their cheesesteak, it’s 100% normal for locals.
Exactly! I don't know where these people got the idea that you don't put ketchup on cheese steak.
I'm from Philadelphia, you can n people do put everything free on there.
Half of these people are so clearly talking out of their ass to anyone actually from the area. Bunch of larpers lmao.
@@__JimmyNeutron__ bro ketchup overpowers the flavors of the cheesesteak. Why would you ruin it it by putting high fructose corn syrup ketchup on it?
@@Jc-pu3cx I didn't give an opinion on whether it's good or not, I'm just saying all the people acting like it's unusual don't know what they are talking about because it's super common in philly.
We had Philly Cheesesteaks for dinner tonight!!!
Such a simple sandwich but they taste So GOOD!!!!
Definitely my all time favorite sandwich!!!
So good! We really enjoyed them. Thanks for watching
No, my darlings. It's not a hot dog. No relish, ketchup, or mustard on a Philly Cheesesteak. 💖💙💖
😂 we did ask if we should add them. Thanks for sharing
@@thebritstry We live and we learn. 😄 Cheese whiz isn't real cheese 🤢However, light mayo, provolone, mushrooms, and onions on cheesesteak are absolutely delish. 😋😋😋
Looks like Angelo’s got it right. I’m so glad you enjoyed it. Be blessed!
Looks so good know your going to love it.❤❤❤❤❤❤❤😊
Never put ketchup always get american cheese with onion try johns roast pork it has the best philly cheese steak
Don't ask for a "Philly" cheesesteak at John's or they will throw you out.
I like loaded meat, toasted bread with olive oil. Provolone cheese, onions, a little mayo with extra Hotts chops finely. That’s it. Best cheese steak ever.
Sounds great! We will have to try that next time!! Thanks for the advice..
If you want a good cheezesteak, avoid Pats or Genos. They are tourist traps. Also no wiz. American cheeze is best.
Phil here again...While I agree Angelo's is one of the best, you are entitled to pit any condiments you enjoy on top!
Just make sure it's a good roll which is hard to find outside of the Tri-State area (PA, NJ & DE) and good meat. Also, if using American cheese, than a hood white American like Cooper Or Clearfield and some others. Enjoy!! You guys are great!
Thanks for the tips
$15.50 for a Philly I’d bet tourist traps
Thanks for watching
I'd bet Bidenomics...😮😊
You need to go to Groton, CT, (the home of the Grinder), and try those out. I spent 18 months in Groton eating some of the best of these Sandwiches. You may very well love them too!!!
Thanks for the tips! We will definitely look into it
They are both tourist traps
What do you think of Angelo’s?
Love guys. Keep going
@@thebritstry Angelo’s is number one
Hello, lovely people. Glad you've tried one of our national treasures.
A little history -- I live in the Great Lakes region, so I'm guaranteed to be left out of the best comfort foods. Arby's used to sell the "Philly Beef n Swiss", a very good sandwich. But I had to move to the South to get even a half-good cheese steak.
I made up my mind to make my own.
Steak buns, Steak-Umm shaved sirloin, coarse-chopped onion/red bell/green bell peppers. Liberal mayo on the buns, break the Steak-Umms lengthwise, season, stack, top withh chopped veggies for cooking. (I use the oven.)
2minutes before they're done (about 13min), topmwith your choice of cheese. I use any of about 5 white cheeses.
My grandson loves them.
Thank you for the information and recipe advice
I NEVER saw anyone put hot sauce on a cheesesteak. 🤯
Um, you were in Philly, so you could have just said cheesesteak.😉
My friends, having just watched both your Philly videos, Just wanted to say the chesesteak from Angelos and the Roast Pork from Johns are two of the best sandwiches in America. If you ever make another trip in this city, you must stop at Reading Terminal Market and back to Johns Roast Pork for their award winning cheesesteak. Cheers! You two a are a lovely couple.
Thank you for the recommendations and very kind words! We did visit the read terminal and will hopefully upload the video soon.
This Local is cringing at all that ketchup!!! 🫣
Happy with your Food Tour ❤❤❤
Yes! We had lots of fun! Thanks for checking out the video
not sure about cheeze whiz, doesn't seem right, should be real cheese.
Thanks for the advice
I am so glad you visited my home town! Welcome!
We had an amazing time around Philadelphia and will definitely be back in the future! We have another Video uploading this afternoon from Philadelphia, let us know what you think!
Biscotti, Italian cookies usually Almond and Anise, or just anise, best dunked in coffee.
We could see they would be great with a coffee! Thanks
@@thebritstry some are half dipped in chocolate also and there are the crispy ones and soft ones. I grew up on them in my house but the ones here don't nearly compare to the ones in Italy.
I hope you saw Beautiful Philadelphia city hall and the art museum, Independence Hall, Besty Ross house, Liberty Bell 😊
We did! We loved Philadelphia town Center and would revisit in a heartbeat!
BEST CHEESESTEAKS IN PHILLY YOU HAVE TO GO TO ANGELO'S PIZZERIA. THEY ARE #1 AND DONT FORGET TO TRY THERE PIAZZA TOO, YUMMY. PATS AND GENOS ARE TOURIST TRAPS DONT GO THERE LOL. ALSO, THE READING TERMINAL MARKET IS GREAT TOO. PHILLY 500 RECOMMENDS THE PORK SANDWICH THERE WITH THE BROCOLI ROB AND PROVOLONE CHEESE.
We went to Angelo’s Pizzeria it was our last stop, but unfortunately we didn’t try the pizza. We also did a video at Reading Terminal Market!🤗
Out here in the central states, Kansas and Oklahoma, the restaurants will put green bell peppers mixed in with the onions on their cheesesteaks. I learned to love cheesesteaks growing up on the central east coast and there it was onions only. So I don't like the peppers on my sandwiches. I always have to request they leave out the bell peppers now that I live in Kansas. And if they can't, I get a burger. My cheese choice is provolone, swiss, or white American...never wiz. Now, the sauce of choice for me is something that is just a personal choice of my own and that's thousand island dressing.
Thanks for the suggestion of thousand island sauce. We will have to try that in the future
I always do Whiz and Provolone with grilled onions. The Cheez Whiz permeates all the meat, the provolone is the flavor cheese, onions add sweetness and moisture. I've already seen everyone else address the condiments being a faux pas, so I won't chastise you any further. I have to make my own Philly bread since I left the area and Cheez Whiz is hard to come by nowadays.
Thanks for sharing!
Hi my friends i’m glad you experienced a good Philly! Be safe ✌🏻❤️
Thanks so much!🤗
I really liked Sonny’s myself. I always go back there if in Philly. Delicious
Great job gang of 2 brits!
Thank you
