@joshberkbooks Just looked at pictures of Geno's steaks, because, apparently, I'm a masochist. YUM.

@timkawakami Don't be taken in by Geno's bright lights, go to Pat's Steaks across the way.

Oops: Make that GENO'S Steaks. Been gone from Philly too long. Will be back for 49ers vs. Philly in December.

@naturallysteph OK, my personal rankings: (1) Geno's (although he's a jerk) (2) Pat's and (3) Jim's (good steaks + bonus points for beer)
