Cheesesteaks

A few years ago, I was in Philadelphia. I ran up the art museum stairs and struck my Rocky pose, took in a Phillies game, and of course had a cheesesteak.

Here in SF, there's two places that vie for cheesesteak supremacy. Jay's (no website) and The Cheese Steak Shop. Either one is a decent option, but for my money I have to recommend The Cheese Steak Shop.

Jay's just fell short - the steak is not as succulent, they did not have as much cheese, and the sandwiches are frankly smaller. Hey, if you're looking to eat healthy, don't have a cheesesteak.

As for The Cheese Steak Shop - big sandwiches, loaded with gooey cheese, and the right amount of peppers. The steak was better too.

Both are on Divis - TCSS between Bush and Sutter, while Jay's is between Fell and Hayes (Jay's has another outpust on 21st Street).
