Pat's & Geno's, probably two of the worst cheese steaks shops in the city, is doubling down.

 

Budweiser-infused cheese steaks.

That said, I do go to Pat's from time to time. It has to be after midnight and drinking heavily has to be involved. Then I go for the show and the **** steak sops up some alcohol.

IT'S time to rise up and burn those two down. i don't correct locals anymore when they ask where to get a good philly or philly cheesesteak and if  pats or genos is better. 

there's only one geno's for me...

I remember Gino's.  I must be old.  Think there was one less than 10 minutes from my grandmother's house back in the late 70s/early 80s.

they also 'came back' after being in franchise limbo about 8(?) years ago. if i recall, they had KFC chicken before KFC became a franchise. It was still called KFC but you could only get it at Gino's.

I remember that where I grew up as well.

There was a huge controversy in Newark, DE when they put the Gino's in on Main St. back in the 70's. They didn't want to ruin the look.

Only one or two good cheesesteaks here in LA that i know of and have no idea if you guys would agree but here goes  

Great Western Hoagie in Venice, Ca

and 

Big Mikes in El Segundo, Ca

 

 

The Gino’s I went to growing up was on Rt 23 in Phoenixville.  Right next to the hospital.  Then it became a Roy Rogers and eventually Boston Market.  Not sure what’s there now.

Not sure.  I didn’t grow up there, but my Mom used to volunteer at a place in town.

If I’m not mistaken, that was Tony Luke’s.

I hate Budweiser. I get a banging headache if I walk too close to the cooler that contains them.

... The most famous is never get involved in a land war in Asia, but only slightly less well-known is this: never go in against an *EPH when food is on the line!

I used to like to go to Pat's as a kid, but I've generally moved on from them. I still have some nostalgia for the place, and it is kind of a historic landmark. The sandwhich is ok but small and way overpriced.


Geno's sucks donkey balls.
