This is from a chain of regional restaurants in the Pittsburgh area called EAT N’ PARK. Never mind that it should be park and THEN eat, but the place is basically a Friendly’s style family restaurant where everything has a smiley face on it. This was on their menu. It looked pretty gross. The bread looks like cardboard.— Serena

I enjoy your statement about the logistics of eating then parking, haha. Yep, that looks pretty awful. That looks like some rare roast beef that isn’t grilled and chopped properly. Also, I’m beginning to wonder, is it so hard for people to just chop onions? C’mon, now. And finally, that cheese should be white American, Provolone or Whiz, not Kraft singles.
Granted Pittsburgh is in the same state, but they’re worlds away.
PS. Can anyone tell me why it must be SO HARD to just call it a cheesesteak? It’s not a “steak and cheese” dammit. You call hamburgers with cheese, cheeseburgers; why must this be any different?
