Although most people outside of Philadelphia are familiar with the Philadelphia cheese steak, locals think in terms of steak sandwiches with or without cheese. Without cheese, the sandwich is referred to as a "steak" (not a "steak sandwich"). With cheese, it's a "cheese steak" (or "cheesesteak" - both spellings are in use). Beware of any restaurant, even in Philadelphia, that offers a "Philly Cheese Steak". Most likely, you will be disappointed. If they have to say "Philly", then it's not authentic!
A Philly steak is not really a steak at all - it's a sandwich made with shredded beef, cooked on a grill top. The story is often told of the Philadelphian who ventures to a restaurant in Chicago. He orders his favorite, a "steak". After some discussion, the waiter determines that what the customer really wants is a steak sandwich. He returns with a beautiful thick Chicago steak on a piece of white bread. The customer is appalled!
Philly Steak Variations:
* "With Onions" - add fried onions
* "With Raw Onions"
* "With Sauce" - top with tomato sauce
* "Pizza Steak" - a cheese steak with tomato sauce
* "With Hot Peppers" - add sliced hot cherry peppers (medium hot flavor)
* "With Sweet Peppers" - add jarred sweet peppers
* "With Cooked Peppers" - as above, but grill the peppers first
* "Steak Hoagie" - a steak sandwich with fresh tomatoes, raw onion, cheese, and herbs - can also be ordered "without cheese"
* "Chicken Steak" and "Chicken Cheese Steak" - substitute grilled shredded chicken for the beef - a new concept that is seeking a market among tradition bound Philadelphians - worth a try, but not as good as the original.
The "Philly Lean" It seems that a well dressed visitor was in town. Desiring to partake of a real local food offer. He was taken to South Philly by his friend, a native Philadelphian. Knowing how much Mr. Clinton likes to eat (and no slouch himself), Rendell offered the President a steak from Pat's. As Mr. Clinton was about to take his first bite, our Mayor (Now Gov) asked him if he was familiar with the Philly "lean," a necessary adjunct to a steak sandwich from Pat's. Mr. Clinton ignored the remark, opting , instead, to take a big bite. No dummy, however, as the juice dripped onto his suit front and sleeve, Mr. Clinton smiled, said, "Oh, I get it!" and bent forward before he took his second bite!
Where to Get a Philadelphia Sandwich
There are a few famous spots particularly noted for their steaks, including:
* Pat's in South Philadelphia
* Jim's Steaks on South Street (which, surprisingly, isn't in South Philly)
* Geno's In South Philadelphia
CheeseStakes are why I level so slow sometimes :P
Good Luck In Game!
Sorry I have not posted in some time. I have a very hard work schedule right now. Shifts are long and unknown. I wanted to try and get some luck over the event time, noticed that it was a light event and didn’t even bother. I just want to get passed level 49 asap. Out of all the levels in the game, 49 is the most headache producing level there is. I have been above 56 on other servers, and I think once you break past that 49-50, things go smooth if you know what your doing. So right now I don’t have any screen pics or anything from the game, because I live in TOI, so there is no point.
Getting back to the event, I didn’t see much from it. I wish NC would put some work in on getting rid of the bots or bringing in the next EP. I hope you all did well during event, but to me it was to small, and to light, I would have rather seen them fix some bugs or ban some bots.
Don't Goto Sleep on an Airliner o.O Click this <--
Until next time ^^
Why are there over 56 pharmaceuticals in my drinking water? How can they tell me that it’s such a small amount that I/we don’t have to worry about it???
What the hell is going on this country anymore? Water has drugs, people in charge of the country are going to jail every other day for different things.
Beef is bad, it’s treated wrong and sent to our schools to be feed mostly to kids who go to school. Veggies end up bad that go to places like Taco Bell, people get sick the scare goes away and people go back and it happens all over again, almost like it’s timed.
I wonder if all these young kids that are in these schools and collages, if there drinking the water????!?!? And then going off the handle and killing people.
Well that’s that for now, follow the link to read about all the drugs in the water in my area.
As for the game… I’m seeing more and more bots in higher end places, and nothing is being done at all. It’s getting sick..
Not really looking to forward to this weekend event. No big deal possible x2 drops.
Well, that as always will only help the bots and the places they farm the best.
That’s why it’s always better for NC to set a char that the “bots” don’t have in there data base so they can’t even see the damn thing…..
Take care
MY LIST OF DRUGS IN MY WATER >.<
Well trying to get level 49 out of the way, I have never died so many times at this level. I have been hit with d/c due to bad weather and port blockers from work , and of course NC Logixxx.
Been tied up, getting water away from my house, and in my house. My time I guess is/will be limited until I get done. Im half way to level 50, and still level 45 quest is not done. I hate that quest now... I just hope that by the time I hit level 50, that I have finished the quest. Looking forward to using the manaball. I have the eye in storage. Oh well, tis is life, in and out of game.
Till next time stay cool, and think before you talk ^^, well if you can :P
Nothing much to post right now. I hope there will be some kind of event this month. Ken’s numbers seem to be getting lower and lower, with more bots in the mix then I have ever seen before.
I was supposed to be in AZ right now, but my orders were changed. Oh well, this happens all the time. It be nice to know were I was going, and actually go there.
Good luck in game!
