cheesesteak rankings

WIPs Glenn Macnow sampled 45 cheesesteaks for his Philadelphia area rankings. Once again John's Pork Roast came in first. Pat's and Geno's while the most famous cheeseteak purveyors didn't make the cut. Slack's Hoagie Shack is on the list, worth mentioning cause I still love their old promotion with Mike Quick wondering if that Hugh Douglas sack would be the "Slack's Hoagie Shack Sack of the Game."

West Chester's own cheesesteak Nirvana (though astronomically priced), the Pepper Mill was ranked #16 - one of the highest rated cheesesteaks among among the suburban locations.

the rankings, like all rankings, are rife with controversy. For instance, Garrett's in Villanova, a favorite of mine back in the day, that was a top choice in Philadelphia Magazine last year wasn't tried by Macnow.

And the radio personality made it to the Pepper Mill but doesn't appear to have actually gone into the borough to try Riggtown's offering.
