All the famous food in New York is better: New York Pizza, New York Hot Dogs, New York Cheesecake, New York Delis: Big Pastaimi and Cornedbeef Sandwhiches, New York Steak Houses: New York Strip Steak, Brooklyn Red Vellvet Cake etc.

I take all these New York foods over a philly cheesesteak. Cheesewiz on a cheesesteak is nasty. New York style with Provolone on a cheesesteak is the best or just American cheese. Oh yeah some of us put mayo on them like me.

All Philly is known for is cheesesteaks and there very overated.

New York pizza blows a philly chessesteak out of the ball park. And a New York chessesteak with provolone blows a philly nasty cheezwiz steak mess whatever away to.

I can’t have a cheese steak without cheese whiz. It’s just not the same.

Ha! Funny Gary! I do prefer Coke, though!

You know what.. I have had a Claymont cheesesteak and I adore it. Truly.

Here in Westchester I had to trim Patricia’s story to fit in our print edition, and maybe she had to do that to mine, but in my original, I did mention that I’m a big fan of cheesesteaks with a side of Ranch dressing. That’s how I had mine at Claymont. It was so good. Can you send one up right now?

How do you do yours?

“Here’s my try: a soft, buttery, Parker-House style roll with thinly sliced rib-eye with caramelized shallots, gorgonzola and delicate chanterelle mushrooms. Mmmm.”
Thanks Liz, I had Pepsi coming out my nose when I read your recipe. Cheesesteaks are not cuisine. Gorgonzola is definitely out. Bite into a Claymont Steak and you’ll agree the classic Philly Steak is perfect as-is.
