Presenting the famous, delectable Philly cheesesteak up close - the sandwich made from thinly sliced pieces of steak and melted cheese in a long roll. It has its roots in the city of Philadelphia, Pennsylvania .Of course, if one is a healthy food buff , this is not a healthy eat indeed but this is just so darn good - this is a Philly Cheesesteak that one can't resist to take a bite. My only dismay: the food outlet doesn't serve COKE ! |
