When I hit the traffic...
That break in the escarpment depicted is in Grimsby Ontario where I live. Next time through be sure to stop in!

The sandwich seems to be the only thing left that hasn't changed dramatically... the kids working the franchises don't even know it's supposed to be an all night trucker's diner with a grille behind the counter.
Well ya gotta go North Philly to experience the real cheese-steak..Even the locals told me they are the best--better than the touristy joints downtown..View attachment 311746
Had one of these twice... first time and the last time, sorry but didn't do anything for me except repeat!
Traveling north on 75 from downriver to Warren, over the Rouge Bridge and the cement plant drying silo with the X-mas tree on the very top all lit up, down the other side and past the Mobil refinery with the round tank painted up like a Detroit Tiger baseball, past Fisher body Caddy plant and then to the big arching fly-over where you can practically reach out the car windows and touch the red light of the Stroh's brewery sign. WRIF Baby, that is home...I-75 Southbound, Fisher Freeway River Rouge Bridge, .. you kinda come around a corner and all of a sudden downtown Detroit appears, plus Ambassador Bridge between Detroit and Windsor Canada. I know I am home.

Lea -- to be clear, that drawing does not depict a cheese steak. No no no: rather, PB are the inventors of the sandwich with fries. IMHO, the sardines one worked best because the tanginess of the canned fish (ideally topped with Tabasco sauce) partly offsets the heavy fries.
For me its pastrami, 4am, and another fine evening where nobody's beer googles took over and no dog catching or pig sticking... even my mom has memories of being young and hitting Primanti Bros in the wee hours after a night on the town. You were lucky to get a stool at the counter... I never went to the Oakland location, the crowd was not my preference...Lea -- to be clear, that drawing does not depict a cheese steak.

That is one helluva machine!
