What's the first thing people think about when the great city of Philadelphia is mentioned? What's the single most common reference to Philadelphia? Oh so often, it is the cheesesteak. The ubiquitous hot meat sandwich, covered with cheese whiz that so many Philadelphians love, but some even loathe.
It's often mentioned before such historical giants as the declaration of independence, the writing of the constitution, or even the Liberty Bell itself.
And of course, if you've ever spent time in Philadelphia, there's always the great debate about who makes the best cheesesteak, and at the epicenter of this great cheesesteak debate lies the two OG's, Pat's and Geno's. In this episode of The CHEF Radio Podcast, you're going to hear the story from Geno Vento himself, a man who struggled mightily with his identity as the heir apparent to the cheese steak kingdom that is Geno's Steaks.
Whether it was his struggles with his weight, friends, personal tragedies, or with his identity as a gay man, Geno has persevered and continues to ensure that his family's legacy is intact and that Geno's will continue to be the number one cheesesteak in world for years to come!
