(above: new deck tavern)
If you keep getting dealt a bad hand of cheesesteaks then you might wanna get yourself a new deck. Good thing that there is a tavern in University City that can fix that. Here at New Deck Tavern we found that if you wanna dine in with a large party then you have dine in the dungeon. Hey, no problem. In high school I use to eat my lunch in the boiler room with the janitorial staff. So I felt right at home there, but I did feel uncomfortable when our cheesesteak baskets were anchored down into the dark hole that we were nested in, and our waitress screamed from above, ‘It puts the whiz on the skin or else it gets the hose again!’ Ok, so that never happened, but we did get the ‘whiz-with’ combo. Now this is a cheesesteak that could easily hang with the big cheesesteak staples here in Philly, which definitely surprised me. You could say that this New Deck dealt a hell of a wild card. The fries alone would be enough to carry the dead weight of a worthless cheesesteak. Some of the best beer-battered fries I’ve had in a long time. On my clip-board, New Deck just shot a game winning basket.

We all agreed it was Steak-umms though right?
BTW everybody owes me another $2 because I just renewed this hell hole.
Ha. Well, I would like to think that it was a step or two ahead of Steak-umms. Although, I could have been blinded by my appetite that night. It was in fact, the first meal of the day for me. And I will have to say that the ‘skimp steak’ would be worthy of praise by the good peeps at Steak-umms.
