: No to start a flame war but, as a Philadelphia native I heartilly
: disagree.  Philly Mike's is the ONLY place in and around DC where you
: you can get a real cheezesteak.

: Globs of fat and grease?  Come on!  That's precisely what makes it a
: cheesesteak!  Got up to Philly on 95, get of a Broad Street, go north

 Not neccessarily. I'm not complaining about fat or grease per se, it
just annoyed me (IMHO) to find all these bobbled strands of rubber
like material on my sandwich! I don't enjoy eating a sandwich that has 
ingedients resembling fly larvae. I will give Philly Mike's credit for
putting sweet peppers on their sandwiches, that is a nice touch that
I'm suprised no one else has caught on to. 
 
: Anyway, one can't expect to learn much about cheesesteaks around DC.
: Around here you quite often have to tell folks (Jerry's in particular)
: that, no, you don't want the bacon, green peppers, and letteuce....

 Unfortunately that's probably true. I have yet to go to Philly to get
a real cheesesteak....but someday.... Don't get me started on Jerry's!
I may not have been to Philly but I know what a cheesesteak isn't 
supposed to be, and that's it!
