Philadelphia: One Wid Controversy at Geno's
Menupages Philadelphia is live, and full of cheesesteak-y goodness (yes, there's a separate section for them, but, alas, not for those gross soft pretzels). You'll be able to live out your wildest fantasies of clogging your arteries and being buried in a piano box without ever having to leave your desk.
Of course, if you do make it to Philly, you must remember when ordering at famed cheesesteakery Geno's Steaks to request "wid" or "widdout" (onions) and please specify Cheese Whiz or Provolone in re your cheese choice.
Geno's currently has the dubious honor of fighting the city over a sign posted there which reads "This Is America. When Ordering Please Speak English." Of course. When we think of perfect English, we think "One wid whiz".
