Hey @Kachina624, I'm curious too about the schools you attended!

Isn't a traditional Philly Cheese Steak Sandwich made with Cheez Whiz?

Hi @Kachina624! I'm familiar with Drexel, of course, since I live in Philadelphia, but not so much with Havertown or Upper Darby. I'm near Bucks County, but still in the city.

Hey @NJgirl 1205! Ah, Pat's and Geno's -- the great debate that never ends. LOL I like them both but haven't had one from either place in ages. Don't get to that part of the city much. I'm not familiar with Abner's.

@Citrine1 Have you seen the DIY show Stone Wall Revival? It's about a company in Bucks Co. that rehabs the Revolutionary era stone buildings in that area. I think it's on the DIY channel Wednesday night I find it very interesting.
My sister lives in Chester County and there are many old houses there too. Years ago she used to go to this bar with a friend to meet men. I was reading a book about the history there and it mentioned that this very place was frequented by George Washington. I almost came unglued. Here she's hanging out, picking up guys practically right in front of GW. Do you suppose he picked up girls?

I think Pat's does, but not sure.
I always toast the rolls, instead of steaming. Just pop on a cookie sheet, cut-side down, into a 325-degree oven for about 6-7 minutes.
Philadelpia is my old stomping grounds, but I never taste-tested all the area cheesesteaks. The best I ever had was made by my aunt, who used to own a restaurant & catering business.
TY @IamMrsG!
I make cheesesteaks every Kentucky Derby Day!
