    What makes it authentic.....it's a bun, crap meat, onions, cheese.

    Tried all the joints in Philly when I visit........very good, but nothing spectacular.

    I like the silver rv like joint on Broad Street near the stadium.

              Dude just because you spend your whole life typing messages on the internet does not make you a guru of any sort

              I've lived 20 years in Downtown Chicago and the pizza here sucks...I've tried them all...Uno, Due, Giordano's, Eduardo's, Gino's East, My Pie, Home Run Inn, Nancy's, Carmen's, Malnatti's, Connie's, Supparossa

              Chicago hot dogs are the bomb though

              You want pizza, go to Connecticut

                        Oh man I LOVE me some cheesesteaks and I love Philly too

                        Best people in the US are from Cleveland, Philly, Buffalo, & Detroit

                        Pretty much impossible to get a quality cheesesteak out here in the midwest

                        Closest I've come, and this was WAY back, was the Hot Buttered Cheesesteak w/ mushrooms, side of waffle fries, from MR HERO...a Cleveland original

                        Oh man I miss me some MR HERO

                          Oh man memories

                          Just looked up oven-grinders and can't believe I've never been

                          Is it a yuppie hellhole? Lincoln Park I usually avoid at all costs

                          Had a girlfriend used to live at 21xx N. Sedgewick and we used to go to Via Emilia (21xx) N. Clark all the time...

                          Now Via Emilia is Riccardo Trattoria and I've heard nothing but the best

                          Oven Grinders just a few steps away

                          Those not familiar w / Chicago...the St. Valentine's Massacre took place directly across the street from what is now Riccardo Trattoria...2119 N. Clark

                                Mmm. Just thinking about Iowa pizza is making me hungry. Fishy, why'd you have to go and bring up IOWA pizza.

                                Everybody knows it's the best.

                                  New York pizza is delicious. I have never been to Philly so I cannot compare cheesesteaks to pizza.

                                  I have yet to find one single place with decent cheesesteaks in California. Not fukking one.

                                  We got great Mexican food though.

                                    Dad, check out "Phillys finest" They are all over CA( I know cuz I live in Hollywood) They have the closest to a authentic Philly cheesesteak your gonna get out here. Oh and I agree the Mexican food here is excellent. Gonna go get some Tamales for dinner tonight.

                                          Yeah check them out. They aren't the real deal but you'll get the idea of what the hype about the Philly cheesesteak is all about.

                                              I have been to Philly Franks, they say they import their meet directly from Philly. Their cheesesteaks SUCK!

                                                  yeah I think it's the bread that makes it and not the meat.

                                                    I've lived 20 years in Downtown Chicago and the pizza here sucks...I've tried them all...Uno, Due, Giordano's, Eduardo's, Gino's East, My Pie, Home Run Inn, Nancy's, Carmen's, Malnatti's, Connie's, Supparossa

                                                    Chicago hot dogs are the bomb though

                                                    You want pizza, go to Connecticut

                                                    And are you a self-appointed guru on the subject?

                                                              Impossible debate. New Haven, CT has the best pizza anywhere. NY is a close 2nd (similar style).
                                                              Love me a cheesesteak, though. 'Wit' of course.
