Through the years, the Philadelphia cheese steak has evolved into a versatile treat packed with a flavorsome punch. While the lure of a New Orleans muffaletta or a Coney Island knish is ample, any cheese steak purist will undoubtedly fancy and favor the Pat’s King of Steaks experience. In fact, the CIA has sought "to insure the unalienable right of all Americans to enjoy the pursuit of happiness that comes from the partaking of a delicious cheese steak sandwich." God bless America (and The Cheesesteak Institute of America).
