Thank God for moments like these!!! When well-known artists speak the truth! Unabashedly!!! Sometimes folks think we exaggerate in Philly when we talk about the racism and how institutionalized it is. Anyway, thank God for ?uestlove making it PLAIN!!!
From Steaks Is High by ?uestlove:
this is the so called face of philadiplomacy. most first time visitors in the tri state insist i give em a tour to the jim/pats steak empire. but truth be told? besides having prime real estate and great iconic lights? both spots are shitty to me because of their racist propaganda they force on you for some mediocre steaks. Joe Vento of course made national news with his anti mexican “english only” signs at Genos Steaks (dont even get me started on the across the street anti Mumia signs at Pats) —on the real? these are the 5 best spots to get your high blood pressure on:
1) tony lukes 2nd and oregon
2) abner’s on 38th and chestnut st.
3) cosmi’s deli on 1501 8th street (where in larry david form they named a sandwich after me that i’d never order...)
4) ishkabbibles on south tween 4th and 3rd
5) genaro’s on 12th and south
