Our journey of cheesesteaks began at the Tony Luke's located inside Citizen's Bank Park.

I ordered my usual "whiz wit" along with a Yuengling to start the day.

After some work, the cheesesteak was satisfying, especially given the atmosphere of the ballpark.
Next, I headed north on Broad and down Passyunk Avenue to try out Geno's.

Geno's bright lights make it impossible to miss from a few blocks away, though things weren't too busy when I arrived.
I ordered "wiz wit-out" too save myself a bit of onion breath, which cost an even $10.

After Geno's, I ventured across the street to Pat's.
While in line, Pat's has a helpful sign that informs customers how to order either "wit" or "wit-out" fried onions, and encourages them to practice their order before arriving at the window.

For $11 I ordered another steak "wiz wit-out" for my third meal of the day.
Finally, I ventured up to South Street to visit Jim's.

The cheesesteaks at Jim's were again in the $10 range, depending on any additions you ordered. I went back to "wiz-wit" while my friend opted against onions for his final steak of the day.
After trying four of the best cheesesteaks in Philadelphia, the winner was clear — me.
