The Real Thing in Towson is as close as it gets around here, it's a hole in the wall run by a sarcastic but loveable Philly native named Tony and they don't use frozen meat in their subs. They switched up their bread game a year or two ago and they improved it quite a bit! I've tried almost everywhere else and there's really no great cheesesteak places in the city proper.

​

I will say, when I'm lazy and close enough is good enough, I do like Mikie's on Fort Ave for delivery. Won't knock your socks off but its good enough to scratch the itch if you put your own whiz on it.

PS Real Thing is cash only, no card or tap to pay!

Haha, sorry if that came off as mean- I love your style and this pic! What I meant to say is that what I assume is a fun image you made in your free time is of the same caliber as a professional ad campaign.

Are you the guy who designs those Visit Baltimore ads? Because I am definitely getting that same vibe.
