input needed: best center city cheesesteak

BDx13 - 5-16-2008 at 09:02 PM

here's the deal...

i'm not in the city much, but when i am, i'm either up by the art museum (friend's place) or old city (khyber).

if i want a steak, i go to geno's. parking is easy, it's open 24/7 and i know what i'm gonna get.

now, i know there are places that people like better, but they're usually small neighborhood joints nowhere near where i am and hard for me to find. (i'm retarded, see.)

so i ask, what would you recommend the the most delicious, centrally located steak.

and I just read that myself for the first time. Surprised that Steve's won the best cheesesteak in 2007.

The Northeast has the best:

1. Chinks
2. Fruscos
3. Steves Prince

I live within 10 blocks of all of these places. I love my life.

The Frusco special is the shit. Cheesesteak, fries, and a can of soda for what like $5.50?

I ate at Tacconelli’s in Port Richmond last friay.
the pizza was great

See there's a problem with this thread. You (BD) ask for the best places downtown, but it CAN'T work like that. Stick with the list from WIP.

BDx13 - 5-18-2008 at 07:18 AM

nice coverage, dog, thanks.

interesting to see that west chester's 'the pepper mill' made the list. i've been enjoying their sandwiches since i was a kid.

i've been meaning to try tony luke's, since it's not far from 9th & passyunk, but i don't think it's open late.

sounds like between campo's and sonny's we got two strok ontions around the corner from the khyber.

one of these weekends I'm hitting up John's Roast Pork for one. That just sounds delicious.
Theres a few on there I need to check out.
So many sammiches, so little time.

I'ma keep bumping this thread for you suburbanites to read. Fuck Pat's an Geno's. If you want greasy nasty quick shit go ahead. If you want a REAL cheesesteak hit up that list to the first 10. Chinks is probabaly at the top.
