Lane Johnson Lands in Philly, Eats Obligatory Cheesesteak

That’s a big Johnson!
The Eagles wasted no time for a photo op of big boy Lane Johnson eating his first cheesesteak. And after that Ben Revere chicken cheesesteak hoagie fiasco*, surely the Eagles took Johnson to a South Philly staple– a Pat’s, a Geno’s, a Tony Luke’s… a place that will undoubtedly spark controversy and cause commenters to opine with: “No THIS is the best cheesesteak place in Philly____. Period. Game over. Fuck you.”
No.
Hows about Talk of the Town, which is 300 yards from the Novacare Complex. Don’t go too far out of your way, guys:
Never had one from there, but I’m guessing the reviews of the steak tasting like “rubber bands with cheese” and seeing “rats running out of the kitchen door” aren’t a good sign. Anyone have a quick review of TOTT?
*Reading his Tweets and watching him play, does anyone else get that sense that Ben isn’t all that… smart?
