The Perfect Cheesesteak

What makes the perfect cheesesteak?

CHEESESTEAK VEGGIES

All of POP's fine vegetables including green bell peppers, mushrooms, onions, etc. are all prepared on site and are cooked with your sandwich. Lettuce and tomato are purchased fresh everyday.

Everything is fresh with the exception of mushrooms. The reason we don’t serve fresh mushrooms is because we have found that there is actually better consistency and better quality in a canned mushroom as opposed to a fresh mushroom. Also, there are fewer issues with food safety, as opposed to a fresh mushroom. Less labor in terms of washing and slicing the mushrooms is required by using the canned variety. POP's has tried fresh mushrooms and canned mushrooms, finding a bigger waste with the fresh mushrooms because of the shorter lifetime before turning dark, thus becoming less appealing and less appetizing.

Sometimes, when the red bell peppers, orange bell peppers, and yellow bell peppers are in season, we utilize those to introduce more color into the sandwich. You can view photos of our sandwiches in the gallery, illustrating our fully loaded sandwich. We're certain proper preparation and presentation equals culinary exuberance. What else can we say?

We have a very unique situation in that our grills are not obscured from public view. When you approach the order window you'll find you’re standing about 3 feet from the grill master. The only thing between you and the grill master is the order screen allowing the steam and sumptuous aroma to roll out as you observe your cheesesteak being specially prepared. Everyone behind you will be enjoying this indescribably wonderful aromatic experience.
