People keep saying they are tourist traps, so what, they cater to visitors to Philadelphia. There must be 100 videos where they allowed photographers to go behind the scenes and witness the cooking of the cheesesteak. Guess what, they are all the same. The only difference in Philadelphia is the amount of meat they pile on.

Outstanding video. I was in New Brunswick 2 months ago and enjoyed it. In my opinion the New Brunswick area is sort of the perfect location to live since it’s not far from NYC and Philly where you can enjoy both cities on the weekends

Amazing history. I think the some of the grave head stones have possibly been replaced too at Trinity Church do to severe age wear
@Antonioonthego5 күн бұрын
St. Andrew's church and cemetary is a lot older than Trinity. I rarely see a replaced head stone there. The Bayley Seton plaque on the wall seemed new. Some of the more famous people have some sort of renovation going fromt time to time.

My family and I just sat down to eat there (the outside seating area). They did not bring us any normal porcelain plates and bowls. The clam chowder soup was served in a plastic bowl, the soft shell crabs which were $45 each were both served in plates in aluminum trays. The lobster roll was not good either. We also had additional paper plates. My husband and I ordered a “glass” of chardonnay each and they brought us individual mini plastic bottles instead, that we could have simply bought from a corner store. Overall, the whole experience was a complete disaster and i don’t know how this place calls themselves a restaurant. Real disappointment.
