Submitted by KaitlinFound in New Orleans, LA I was in New Orleans this past week and a takeout menu from Half Moon Bar & Grill was put under the door of my hotel room.  Much to my shock and horror, there were not one but two offensive “cheesesteaks” listed on the menu, called the Northern Philly Cheesesteak and the Southern Philly Cheesesteak (even the names are wrong!).  See attached for a photo of the menu containing the impostor sandwich descriptions.— Kaitlin What the hell are Northern Philly and Southern Philly?! It’s North Philly and South Philly, and there isn’t even any regional differences between the way different parts of the city make cheesesteaks. Bah! ALSO, GYRO MEAT?! WHAT THE HELL.
