Name your best paces!!!!!!! ------------- opps, places.

Actually, I was in Westchester, around the indoor soccer complex and the food was outstanding. They seem to be good around that area.

I have no clue where I was. Just had a great time and great food for me and my soccer team.

I do have to ask a queastion, is it an insult if you ask for provolone cheese instead of Cheeze Wizz?

Ha, never an insult. I prefer provolone to cheez wiz. And when we make them here at home, we always use provolone :)

Best places? Hmm. I like Tony Luke’s better than Geno or Pat’s but like all of them. Even have a shop here in south jersey that makes a mouth watering cheese steak. There was a place on 11th, maybe 10th (?) and Oregon that made a great cheesesteak but not sure if it’s still there. Last time I ordered from there was in the late 80’s.

I personally think Cheese Whiz (or whatever it is) is insulting. But it is certainly better than asking for swiss cheese like this idiot tried doing:

Provolone? That might be interesting.... but would likely be an insult....

Didn’t John F’ing Kerry (he was in Vietnam don’tcha know?) ask for swiss when he did his photo-op @ Pat’s?

As a former short order cook in a Philly area cheesesteak/hoagie shop, (and former 10 year resident of Philthydelphia - in the ‘yunk) I still think yellow american tastes much better on a steak than “wizz”.

Nope, I don't think I've ever been in a place anywhere in Philly / Jersey / PA that didn't have provolone as a choice. Another universal choice is American cheese.

In fact I think you'd have trouble finding Cheez Wiz outside the Philly city limits.

Cheese steaks with American cheese...the only ones I’ve ever had and I’m Philly-born and raised.
