Looking for some classic Philly fare? Grab a bite at either Pat's or Geno's steaks, 2 rival cheesesteak shops right across the street from each other in South Philly! Though the bride and groom think that the best steaks are at Dalessandro's Steaks in Manayunk, but this is a bit north of the city. Be sure to order your steak either "wiz wit" (meaning cheese wiz and with onions) or "wiz without" (cheese wiz and no onions)
