    Born in Philly, lots of hole in the wall great eateries in south Philly. One dish I think MFP would like in moderation of course, is something called a Jambutta or affectionally known as the Jam Butt especially if you ate the whole thing. It was a Egg quiche made with all greens spinach, broccoli, asparagus, peppers and any other good veggies found in the kitchen. Quiche was about 2" thick

    If Millie's is still on Army Post Road in Des Moines, you gotta go there. The tenderloins are dinner plate size. Mayo and pickles....

    Philly Cheesesteak
    Philly Pretzel
    and a truly disgusting concoction called scrapple.

    From Wiki:
    Scrapple is typically made of hog offal, such as the head, heart, liver, and other trimmings, which are boiled with any bones attached (often the entire head), to make a broth. Once cooked, bones and fat are discarded, the meat is reserved, and (dry) cornmeal is boiled in the broth to make a mush. The meat, finely minced, is returned to the pot and seasonings, typically sage, thyme, savory, black pepper, and others are added.[2][3] The mush is formed into loaves and allowed to cool thoroughly until set. The proportions and seasoning are very much a matter of the region and the cook's taste.[4]

    I'm not from here originally so when I heard of the scrapple I wanted to puke. I'm not a big fan of the cheesesteaks. The pretzels are pretty good.

    Where I live meat (particularly pork) and potatoes are the main dishes everywhere all the time. Really bad food...

    Mostly pork dishes rule here though I don't eat pork that much. Popular foods here are adobo, pancit (stir fry noodles with somethings) though I'm not a fan of those foods. And of course the good 'ol white rice (hello refined carbs!)
