I have found in life that sometimes it’s the simple things that are the most rewarding. Albeit simple things can be difficult to master and appreciate, take for example a slow dance, but when done correctly, they can be the best. That brings me to the humble cheesesteak. With just three ingredients, one could speculate that there may not be enough subtle flavor nuances to make this sandwich a great dish. Well they would be wrong.

Indulge yourself.

The ratio on this particular sandwich is perfect. Soft, yet firm enough bread to hold it all together while adding texture. Gooey enough cheese to let you feel the indulgence. Then there is plenty of meat. This will give new meaning (and dimensions) to the “beltline”. You may want to bring a pair of walking shoes and schedule an hour on the beltline walking trail immediately afterwards.

The Goods

All said, this sandwich is a keeper. Make sure to visit so that you can be the judge.  In the meantime, visit fredsmeatandbread.com to see all of their selections.
