Never a big fan. You have to prefer a cheesesteak, maybe from Jim’s?

I like a good cheesesteak too, Jim’s being a good example. I’m not sure if they’ve reopened yet after the fire.

Mother’s in New Orleans on Poydras serves the Famous Ferdi Special, a po’boy featuring baked ham (Mother’s is touted as having some of the world’s best baked ham), roast beef, debris and gravy, and is dressed with shredded cabbage, sliced pickle, mayo, Creole mustard and yellow mustard.
Mother’s Debris sandwich is off the charts !

Wrights Gourmet S. Dale Mabry Tampa serves another of my favorites that I’ve ordered there since the mid 1980’s, the Beef Martini.
Thin sliced rare roast beef with warm sautéed mushrooms marinated in white wine, crisp bacon slices and a garlic herb spread on butter crust white bread.

A good mate of mine wrote a book on this, (or at least sandwiches from around the world, not just the US). Worth a look if you can find because she is a spectacularly good food writer:

Blow the sandwich, that shrimp slop looks delish
I’ve had this one! Very good!
Churrasco italiano from Tip y Tap en Santiago
Not the ''best looking presentation'' ..... if that advacado, i'm not eating it, but if it that fancy pants stuff guacamole I'm sure it woulda tasted real good
About 45 years ago, Jim's on South Street probably made about the best cheesesteak in the City. The crown has been passed around since. And since I don't eat them or get down there much anymore, I can't tell you where the best one is today. But in the very early 80s, Jim's was the best ... and I would know.
Now if you're talking about Philly sandwiches, then you must also include the Hoagie. You haven't had one until you've had one out of the heart of the City. A superior one is all about the bread, and South Philly at one time was one of the best Italian baking spots in America.
It's a very different town today. But that was the skinny on it then.
Since we're talking about Philadelphia foods, don't forget some scrapple and eggs the next morning.
LOL! More like North and South Korea. Entirely different worlds, in one little state.
And the 38th Parallel is somewhere between Trenton and Princeton.
Darrell's Special Po'Boy. with gravy and spicy mayo.
Darrell's of Lake Charles Louisiana. It will change your life.

Damn tasty though. It's kind of like a South American version of my favourite Mexican torta (the Crispin from the Tres Lagunas area).Not the ''best looking presentation'' ..... if that advacado, i'm not eating it, but if it that fancy pants stuff guacamole I'm sure it woulda tasted real good
Crispin from Bermejillo, Durango is tasty too:

mmmm roasted Guinea Pigs [not] [saw them traded in the streets, and on platters cooked, but never tried them just not eating a pet]
The locals reserved them for either Special Occasions [think weddings etc] or for dumb Two Wrists
[tourists]
