Publisher's Synopsis
Cheesesteak, also known as Philadelphia cheesesteak, is a sandwich that originated in Philadelphia, Pennsylvania, United States. The sandwich consists of thinly sliced beefsteak, melted cheese, and sometimes grilled onions served on a long, crusty roll.
The history of the cheesesteak dates back to the 1930s when hot dog vendors in South Philadelphia began grilling steak and putting it on rolls. The sandwich became popular among blue-collar workers, and over time, it became a symbol of Philadelphia cuisine.
