Philly

Never having been to Philadelphia, Laura and I decided to make a quick stop on our way from Rehoboth Beach to NYC. I had a hankering for one of those steaks. I went with Pat's, the original.

I believe it was around 4 in the afternoon so I was not expecting much of a crowd, but it was quite busy. Apparently you have to order correctly there which involves saying "wit" instead of with. I said with and got a look.

The cheese steak was pretty darn good as were the fries and soda.

It's not hard to tell which place came second. BTW - can you find Sadam?

Laura was unable to eat the cheese steaks so we had to find a spot for her to grab a bite. Fortunately we walked by a cool little Mexican joint on the way back to the car. It was just past this interesting mural. On a side note, I am not sure if it was just the neighbor hood, but I noticed quite a spike in mustaches and swearing in Philadelphia. It made me nervous, but I bet after a few days it would seem normal.
