Nevermind him - go to Jims on South (like 4th and South maybe?).

John Roast Pork:
14 E Snyder Avenue, Philadelphia, PA 19148
They usually close at 3 PM.

Pat's Steaks:
1237 East Passyunk Avenue, Philadelphia, PA 19147

I'll try them all!

 

[dkeane]

They have been doing it a lot lately. I forget the drinking and driving one that has been plastered all over RI. It's pretty close to "Be smaht. Don't fackin drink'n drive!"

yup, I've seen that one.

 

[Pepiope]

pats is just as shit as ginos. just go get a $3 from some food truck and save yourself money

Pat's is a pretty good steak, but have you been to John Roast Pork? Easily tops them all.

Supposedly Delessandro's is good as well. I've never been there.

 

[StriKeVillain]

I'll try them all!

If you have a car go to Dalessandro's in Roxborough. Best steak I've had in the Philly area.

I second this. Many a drunk night spent outside waiting for Jim's to end up being happy I waited.

 

[dkeane]

Holy shit. Here in the Boston area the local news stations are going wild with this. Wall to wall coverage. They won't fucking shut up about it.

It's an enormous storm that's shutting down the city for more than a day.
Is it surprising? They just spent over a week talking about a football missing 1.5 PSI.

never been to john roast pork, but i liked dinics in reading terminal when i worked in center city. delessandros was decent the one time i had it but it's way too out of the way for just a cheesesteak


oh, and fluffly, try out something like termini bros bakery and cacia's bakery. great pizza / strombolis / bread

 

[Slayer-33]

So uh it seems this shit won't do jack shit to nyc and has "busted" wow if true, fuck this shit.. So much hype for nothing.

 

[evil solrac v3.0]

Brooklyn here. kinda disappointing looking so far.

 

[spindashing]

Queens, is it even snowing anymore? Lol. I might as well go out and shovel.

RIP to my back.

I ate at Dinics for the first time this past weekend, pretty good meatball. A lot of good food at the terminal.

 

[mmazurkiewicz]

its not even freakin snowing.

i sent our employees home mad early for nothing!

 

[Deathmistress]

It's already pretty shitty in Dorchester. I volunteer in Newton on Tuesdays. Is there really a driving ban?!

Edit: in before "dorchester is always shitty" I mean for snow 😒

 

[Y2Kev]

It better snow b/c we're all staying home to WFH tomorrow. If it just farts then a) no one will ever believe this shit again and b) I am gonna have to go in.

This happened for us in Philly during Sandy. Everybody was prepared for actual hurricane destruction in the city and gave us two days off and it turned out to be nothing. Employers were pissed.

 

[Altered Juice]

oh that's cool i've got nothing better to do.

 

[evil solrac v3.0]

so what are the latest numbers now for NYC?

 

[Ace Harding]

This could be the gif of the morning tomorrow in Philly and NYC.

 

[MattyG]

Class is cancelled for tomorrow already, and the professor who teaches my only Wednesday class said to not bother coming in if there's even a tiny bit of snow, because he'll "probably be sick anyway". Woot woot.

 

[Alucrid]

cecily tynan is a fraud

 

[kingocfs]

This was supposed to be bad overnight right? Because I can still see the pavement.

 

[MetatronM]

So uh it seems this shit won't do jack shit to nyc and has "busted" wow if true, fuck this shit.. So much hype for nothing.

Huh? There's a reason nothing in NYC is shutting down until 11 pm. The blizzard part isn't even supposed to START until after midnight. It's not even here yet.

Also, a lull around 8 or 9 pm has been on the Weather Channel's forecast all day long.

 

[Loxley]

Yep. I'm in Philly and we've gotten practically nothing. Some flurries here and there but almost nothing is sticking around. So much for that "One inch of snow every hour until Tuesday" like our local news was reporting. We're supposedly getting snow tonight and into mid-day tomorrow, but I have a hunch it won't amount to much.

 

[triplestation]

CAN YOU GUYS HEAR ME

 

[Ace Harding]

cecily tynan is a fraud

I know, right?

I mean she likes Rick's.

 

[Seven Force]

Yeah, pretty sure shit isn't supposed to start getting real until the early hours of the morning for NYC.

 

[Mully]

Cecily Tynan looks a lot like a tall blonde, middle aged woman I know.

Yeah is it officially a bust or...????

I wonder what her bedroom situation is like >.>

Is this a reference to bed building?

It looks like it passed us already based off this map. I don't see any more gigantic scary masses of stuff coming our way...

Stay warm and safe east coast peeps.

But, to rub it in your face, it's a lovely 72 degrees today here in so-cal .

It's a nor'easter, it moves inland from the ocean.

 

[Anoregon]

The storm isn't a "bust", it did not miss us. It's gonna start slamming us in a couple of hours and stay slamming until some point on Tuesday.

I've been following this thread to keep up with the storm - http://forums.accuweather.com/index.php?showtopic=32154&st=3860

It's coming in the next few hours.

They're in bed with the grocery store lobby. Anything to sell bottled water and canned foods.

No. It has not passed us. The low/center of the storm is 200 miles east of Virginia Beach.

 

[FTF]

I'm not sure why so many think the storm is a bust, etc…the worst parts of the blizzard were supposed to be overnight till like early/mid afternoon tomorrow.

 

[jetpacks was yes]

These are going to be funny posts to look back on tomorrow.

 

[effzee]

Just saw the Weather Channel say NYC is going to be more around 8-12 inches.

that's still a lot but not the near 30 inches we were expecting

[metalmonstar]

Marylander here. First part of the strom missed us completely. I was saying lol bust all day today. Then 7 hit and it has been non stop since then. The roads are currently super slick. I am stuck at work trying to find a way home. Wish me luck.

Why would anyone who lives in or around Philly go to Pats for a cheesesteak? Jim's, Steve's, Tony Luke's, Jimmy G's, D'alessandro's, Campo's... they are all better than Pat's.

You are super right about John's Roast Pork though, it's just impossible to get there when they are open.

 

[terrisus]

First part of the strom missed us completely.

The second part is yet to come:
