In Philadelphia, the only thing that should ever sit in traffic on I-95 is your commute—never your grilled cheese.

No soggy sandwiches hiding in chafing dishes—ever. We stand with the true Cheese Warriors of Philly who slap bread on the griddle, flip it with flair, and serve it molten-hot, exactly how it should be.

Great taste and hits the spot, some food trucks have such huge portions and if I love it I will eat it all, not so good for me. 😊
