Another hard day of eating there Jon? As someone who lives in England but has never visited Philadelphia before it was good to see your take on this classic Philly dish. Not really something we have over here. A meatball sub would be the closet. I just could not eat that Cheese that is used. It looks so cheap and fake to me but I am sure taste's nice. Good bread is a must to I would imagine. First place would be my favourite. Like your description of the last place. Classic Hangover food. Definitely want to visit Philadelphia some time. Great work again. Let's hope you get to 10,000 likes. Come on people.

You guys did it right! Unfortunately you went on a Monday and John's Roast Pork (THE BEST cheesesteak in the city) and Angelo's was closed. You gotta go back for a part 2! I like Ketchup (converted also), but only to dip it in. I own a second condo in Philly and go there once a month just to eat Philly food haha. I wouldn't be good on camera, but would love to take you places! Top 5 Cheesesteaks: 1. John's Roast Pork: Def try the Cheesesteak there. Also get a Roast Pork too. 2. Woodrows: Love the Cheesesteak too. You guys missed out not getting cheese fries from there. 3. Jim's: Really like it as well, sometimes get the double meat haha. 4. Angelo's: Awesome bread, love their Chicken Parm sandwich also. 5. Dalessandro's Steaks: Well worth the drive there. Huge steaks! Top 5 Other Philly Foods: 1. Tommy DiNick's (Terminal Marketplace): Def get the Roast Pork, cheese and broccoli rob. Also try the Brisket w/ cheese. You'll thank me later. 2. Ma Lessie's Chicken & Waffles (Terminal): The best fried chicken and sides. Strawberry lemonade is awesome as well. 3. Hershel's East Side Deli (Terminal): Awesome Rueben Sandwich! Be sure to get that. My brother loves their Rachel. Love their Matzah Ball soup also. 4. Food Cart (8th and Spruce): Sausage egg and cheese on a long roll with ketchup (this I do put it on haha) and salt and pepper. Get one every time I go! 5. Hunger Burger (Terminal): Always get the Philbert Burger, do a double (no tomato, it makes it way too messy) is my go to burger there. They got a great breakfast burger too. Great cheese fries, mac & cheese too. Honorable Mentions: 1. Famous 4th Street Cookie Company (Termainal): Always get their Chocolate Chipped Dipped cookie for desert after eating at the Terminal Marketplace. Their regular chocolate chip, M&M cookies are great too. Hope's also in the Terminal makes great cookies. 2. Ralph's Italian Restaurant: Oldest Italian restaurant in the city. Great spaghetti and meatballs. 3. m2o Burgers & Salads: Great burgers there too, cheese fries and shakes. 4. Wawa: You gotta try getting some stuff from Wawa. Great cold hoagies, hot subs, burgers (yes I said burgers), fries, mac & cheese and more. If you need a place to stay, hit me up! You're gonna gain 5 pounds at least next time you go haha. I always do.

Great review, guys. We went to Philly for the first time last year. Day 1 was the obligatory Pat's and Geno's. Day 2, we tried a place called Cleaver's in Rittenhouse square that was surprisingly incredible. So good that one day we decided to order lunch to go and bring it back to our hotel. Lots of other food to explore in that general vicinity too.

It's not like eating a steak since the texture is completely different as is the fat composition once you grind or thinly shave the steak. A wagyu steak is heavily marbled and hence a lot of fat which is why it's actually not recommended to grind it down and use it for burgers since most of it cooks away. Look in the video, the cheesesteak doesn't look that far off from a cheeseburger which is why it's not ridiculously to think that ketchup could work

Grew up eating at Jim’s amd Ishkabibbles in the 80’s early 90’s…Ish used to be on South st and was more of a secret spot…cheese fries and the chicken cheese steak was always killer…Jim’s was always a good deal for us starving broke kids…I think a sandwich at Jim’s in the 80’s cost like 8 bucks…miss South st back when it was all punk rock amd skaters

There are definitely more spots in Philly. I’m from California and every time I visit New York City and make sure I go down to Philly for the day and Gorge on cheesesteaks. I will not eat a cheesesteak anywhere else except for Philly. And so far out of all the places I’ve had D’Alessandro‘s is the best, no ketchup tho 🤮

@@HereBeBarr I’ve been to Philly a bunch of times and never able to get into Johns. My suggestion is go to Johns for the pork sando, then go to Denic’s in Reading Market Terminal which are supposed to be the best and compare… Delasandros are bigger, more meat and better tasting in all of Philly.. hands down!!

@@PhillyTomcat2 I think my issue is the wrong day. For some reason, I go when they are closed. What do you think about Denic's? We had the same issues there... we always went when they were closed. lol We finally had it and thought it was ok, but I'll take a cheesesteak over a pork sando.

I'm from Reading PA, about an hour or so north west of Philly. We have a place called Tack's sandwich shop. They use a catchup and tabasco sauce concoction. Personally, I'm not a fan of it. I'll eat it cold tho. Other then that place Reading does pizza cheesesteaks, with American cheese, marinara, and topped with slices of dill pickles. I call it the Reading Cheesesteak. We don't call it a pizza cheesesteak in Reading, and you have to ask to hold the marinara sauce. I personally like a cheesesteak on a hard roll, light onion and marinara sauce, with provolone cheese.

Unfortunately I TRULY HATE the taste and consistency of Cheez Whiz! So I am definitely a provolone person on my cheesesteaks, plus you really need green pepper/jalapeño and chopped tomato (probably the Southern Cali variations on cheesesteaks)
