As messed as Philly is, Strombolis, Hoagies, and Pat's Steaks with an order of cheese fries trump anything Phoenix can put up against it. A stone's throw from 9th and Passyunk, you'll find some outstanding Italian eats.

FYI, they still stack the pretzels on the street and pepper them with diesel exhaust near the Zoo. Only the locals know where to get the fresh ones. Let the tourista eat the thawed ones (and give them Gouldens Spicy brown so they can BROADCAST that they're outa-towners).

Philadelphia has a red-headed stepchild complex but it's issues are with New York and not Phoenix....Camden is in Jersey, anyway - not Philly's fault (on the other hand, WEST Philadelphia is no paradise). At least if you keep driving , you end up down the shore.....sheesh!

Know your audience. People from Arizona have never heard of Gulden's, and they think "Wonder" is about the right consistency for bread. I'm serious. They eat their hoagies/wedges on hot dog rolls. They just don't know any better. It's sad, really.
