📖 The Story Behind This Dish

The Philly cheesesteak is said to have begun in the 1930s when a Philadelphia hot dog vendor griddled thin-sliced beef and put it in a roll. The classic style is generously stuffed with thin-sliced beef, sautéed onions, and melted Cheez Whiz (processed cheese sauce). Locals have their own ordering lingo, like 'wit Whiz' (with cheese and onions), for this beloved sandwich.

🌆 Where it's eaten: At a long-standing Philadelphia shop late at night, customers line up drawn by the sizzle and smell of beef on the griddle.
