Stopped in to use a coupon (buy one large sandwich, get a regular free) at the 10100 Beechnut location. We each got cheesesteaks with added mushrooms. Made fresh when ordered, they were pretty tasty but a bit small for the price. I was assured that the ingredients are shipped in from Philly, including the bread which was chewy. However, my memory of real Philly cheesesteaks is so faded as it has been a long time since I've visited there, that I really have nothing to compare it to. I *could* compare it to Mr. Submarine, but in my opinion Mr. Submarine is way better than Philly Connection. Their large sandwiches are 14-inches and come stuffed with beef, as opposed to Philly Connection where they are only 10" and were kind of measly. I also think that the beef at Mr. Submarine has a better flavor. On the other hand, Philly Connection's fries were very good, as was the Kosher barrel pickle. They also have Tastykakes (butterscotch Krimpets, chocolate Kandykakes, and my personal favorites... chocolate/peanut butter Kandykakes). Might go back sometime for an Italian hoagie. I was always more of a fan of a good hoagie than I was of cheesesteaks anyway. Becky
