With most of the major cities in this country there are certain aspects that are specifically associated with them. New York is known for having great theatre, Chicago is not only the windy city but also known for its incredible jazz scene. One of the things Philadelphia, Pennsylvania is most known for is also one of its citizen’s favorites. It is home of the best cheese steak sandwiches in the nation and probably even the world. Tourists who visit a Philadelphia area hotel are likely not there specifically to have a cheese steak sandwich, though you can certainly bet that they will enjoy at least one of them during their stay.

Different people will have their own opinion on where the best sandwiches are actually served and how to create the perfect cheese steak. However, there are certain institutions that are acknowledged as having some of the best sandwiches and these are generally the places that tourists are most likely to migrate to. However, there are always those who are willing to explore all options to find what they themselves consider to be the best, which is what ultimately many of the residents of Philadelphia have done.

For individuals looking for a guaranteed and accepted as great cheese steak sandwich, Geno’s in South Philadelphia is a great option. One of the great things, in addition to their food, about Geno’s is the fact that they are open twenty four hours a day, which makes accessing a great sandwich whenever the craving or need strikes is possible. The restaurant was established in 1966 by Joe Vento who learned the art of making cheese steak from his father who had previously owned and operated Jim’s Steaks in the 1940s. Traditions and recipes that are passed down through the generations are usually guaranteed to be of high quality or obviously they would have been weeded out through the years. And when dealing with food, longevity of an establishment is always an indication of quality.
