Yeah, probably not there, but I had a Willy Philly burito, a kind of Mexican take on a Philly cheesesteak.  I liked it.

Better than anything I ate in Austin, where I was fortunate to get home with both kidneys attached.

I'm a Cheese Steak lover, but never been to Philly

There's a pizza place here in town that makes a cheesesteak stromboli.  It's the bees knees.

I've always liked the Philly cheesesteak things.  I've even tried the grocery store varieties with minimal success.

A Philly Cheesesteak falls into the category of "even if it's bad, it's usually still good". I mean, it's basic. Thin sliced steak, cheese, onions/peppers and maybe mushroom, on a roll. Your average short-order cook on his first day can cook it. You have to really try to make it terrible.

I enjoy having four seasons, I just don't want Cincy seasons (winter).  I remember spending most of Jan-Feb-Mar huddled inside barely going out for anything.

We might have 2-3 days in winter, aside from rain, where it is unpleasant to be outside for an hour or more.  Maybe.  But it gets cold of course.  The worst is those few days where it is 35°F and raining.  And the summers here to me are more tolerable than they were in Cincy as well, less humidity.

The worst in Atlanta is the ice storms. Not because the weather itself is particularly bad, but because of the havoc they can cause.

I had a Navajo Taco version of the Philly Cheesesteak a few times over the summer. To say that I was apprehensive going in would be an understatement. A Navajo Taco is a little strange to begin with. Then on top of that, what in the Hell would the Navajo know about East Coast delicacies? But I tell ya, this was a match made in culinary Heaven.

The "authentic" Philly (as in the way that they sell it in Philadelphia) is actually kind of gross, because they use a heavy helping of Cheez Whiz. 

The midwestern take on the Philly, where they substitute provolone for the Cheez Whiz, is far superior imo.

I'm 36 years old, and I just recently ate Cheez Whiz for the first time in  my life... | ResetEra
