A few things here: - Cheesesteaks are fantastic, but the quality can vary from place to place in such a dramatic way; There are some places that have bomb food, but their cheesesteak is made of unseasoned ribeye and provolone with onions too soggy and bell peppers too crunchy. The consistency from sandwich to sandwich can really make or break the situation. Outside of some bad sauerkraut, a Reuben is consistent from restaurant to restaurant; I've never had a bad one, y'know? - Too many places don’t use Cheez Whiz on their cheesesteak. Might as well leave out the steak, jeez. Then, some crunchy granola places try to blaspheme the sandwich by adding zucchini and squash in the onions and peppers mix. The Whiz is at a minimum, you can’t be slanging a cheesesteak without it. - There’s a deli here in Houston (Kenny and Ziggy's) that does an open faces Reuben that's nearly half the size of the table: This thing here? Incredible. I’ll put this against Geno’s and their world famous cheesesteak. It’s a beast, and it tastes better than its size. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I don't think that picture was intended to border on the erotic... but it does. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

But also agreeing because putting zucchini is a very poor life choice. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
