Thus began heated debates on every aspect of proper cheesesteak production—from roll sourcing to the merits of mild provolone. After all, with nothing more than tangled mounds of grease-soaked beef ideally cooked to a dull gray , so-called cheese fake is always best , fried onions, and just enough spongy bread to hold the thing together, how bad can any cheesesteak be?
Here, a brief history and current ranking of the New York Philly-style cheesesteak. Wonderful product, lousy location.
Seriously one of the best philly subs around. The extra-frustrating thing is that I have been to the Monrovia and Burbank locations as well, and neither are as good as Pasadena was. But you said it: horrible location. I loved their Italian hoagie Burger thing for ze blog. Due diligence and all, but I'm hemming and hawing at this juncture. Post a Comment. Philly Cheesesteak Burger. I'm taking a brief break from my New York culinary adventures to say goodbye to an old friend today: Philly's Best, the sandwich shop and shrine to all things Philadelphia crammed into a corner of the Del Mar train station.
No, they weren't the best cheesesteaks I have ever had, and it was certainly annoying when I would try to get a sandwich twenty minutes before the advertised closing time only to find that they had already locked up for the night, but they were consistently very good, sometimes great, and they featured in no fewer than ten posts on this blog over the years. And, as of Friday the 13th, they are no more.
Craig Reilly, 28, said that buying a cheese steak was the first thing he did when he attended a game, so he did not think twice.
Matt Reilly, however, changed his mind once he saw the sign. The only Phillies fan who bought a cheese steak in a minute spell before the game was Kevin Ingram, a social worker from Atlantic City. But to him, the beef slathered with cheese and onions on a hero was not about making a point. The Philadelphia pride was on the four layers of Phillies gear he was wearing, not in his pregame snack.
And a Philly Cheesesteak is not a rival baseball team. The liquid seemed to be a combination of condensation from the hot steak, the hot sauce we ordered which also accounts for the reddish color and a little grease. It was so juicy, the bottom of the bread was soaked, and broke about halfway through the length of the roll. This was not the neatest lunch to eat. But with thinly-shaved grilled beef, provolone, onions and hot sauce, it was a tasty lunch. There are always going to be some people who are purists.
We can vouch for a good, hearty, filling lunch that was perfect for a cold winter day.
