Brits try real Philly Cheesesteak for the first time! 

PHILLY WE OUT HERE!!! 🥳🥳🥳 thank you guys again for coming thru Philly. JOLLY 화이팅~~

Oh thank goodness. Every time I see tourists do a cheesesteak video I hold by breath until I know they went anywhere but Pats or Geno’s. Good job getting local guidance. Angelos is solid.

Personally loved when he yelled "Go Birds!" and the guy in the background turned around right away, wearing an Eagles' hoodie, of course.

A breath of fresh air to see people actually avoiding Genos and Pats and going to a better spot. Still waiting for the day Steve's appears on one of these, but Angelo's is definitely good too.

Tbh I like Chiefon's little quiet presence. I feel like I would be like him, just appreciating the jokes and banter and contributing when I can. Love it.

"That tastes like not being able to see your grandkids" is just a great quote!

Even though Jolly is hugely popular, I really appreciate the fact that they're still so down to earth...eating cheesesteaks on the street right out of the bag with a cop and bystanders coming in and out of the shot 🥰

Being from eastern PA, the meat, onions and peppers are relatively simple to replicate anywhere as long as you have decent ribeye and know how to season it. The big difference is the access to great bakeries making hard rolls.

If JOLLY doesn’t hit the Terminal Market for a roast pork or some Hershel’s hot pastrami… they’re going to regret it.

They took you to a LEGIT place. Angelo's is probably one of the best in Philly.

as someone who is born and raised in philly, but currently in nyc for college, this made me homesick but also very happy!!

Coming from somebody that’s from Philly I love the fact that you had someone from the city as a guide to give you the real tea

Bro shoutout Chris for 1) taking yall to Angelo’s, because that place’s food (not just cheesesteaks) is fire, but 2) for putting yall up on Cooper’s sharp. Already knew he was a real one, this just confirms it

We do say "take a wizz" in America. I've heard it all my life.

I’m a Korean-American born and raised in Philly, so this video made me incredibly happy 🥹 So hyped for this series, and (hopefully) your reactions to my childhood favorites - water ice, wawas, hoagies, etc ❤

I would like you to know: My husband and I celebrated our 10th anniversary a few days ago. We decided to go to Fogo de Chao, which is an all you can eat Brazilian steakhouse doing Churrasco meats, where they bring the skewers around to the table. I knew I'd need to be hungry, so my strategy was to skip breakfast and then watch your videos all day. I was SO HUNGRY by the time we got to the steakhouse! LOL! Thank you for your help. LOVE your videos, and I'm just a 60 year old Grandma who lives in the desert in Arizona, USA. Thank you for the trips round the world, trying all of the delicious foods.

I am celiac, which means no wheat for me. Eating wheat means three steps to a toilet for three days. The next time I visit Philly, I will book an extra three days in a hotel just to eat one of these sandwiches.

As a south Jersey native living abroad, the nostalgia is crazy for me watching this…

Proud Pennsylvanian here (though on the opposite side of the state... danggit) Thank you, thank you for stopping by and trying what's probably one of our favorite comfort foods in the state (even over here, some 300 miles away... Danggit.) Hope you enjoyed!

As someone who waited to have a cheesesteak until they were in Philly, I love getting to see Josh & Ollie trying them for the first time there as well. Having Chef Chris along for it is absolutely fantastic. The cross-over I didn't know I needed until now. :3

I am so fucking happy that you went to Angelo's. Truly the best in Philly, and NEVER the one people in these types of videos go to. Love you guys so much!

I lived in Philly for four years after growing up in the Midwest and it is such an underrated city. There's a strong appreciation for finding good food and being real with folks. If I ever moved back to the US, I'd probably return there. Philly will forever have a strong place in my heart and I'm so glad you guys stopped there and I really hope there'll be some more episodes there

Solid better help pun! Legit, therapy is ROUGH, and the rougher therapy gets, the more progress is made. Im SO proud of you.

My favourite part of this video was watching the passion in Chef Chris' eyes light up with his friend Chiefon for Philly. Nothing beats a passionate local tour guide. I only wish this was a longer video or there was a part two.

And now I am starving THANKS.

after eating all of that, Ollie just stood still in a food coma, and was mistaken for a traffic cone

Thank you for coming to my hometown very much appreciate and to have Chris showing you around it’s amazing

I love this!! As a Philly native living in Georgia it makes my heart warm!! Cooler sharp and Wawa and pretzels and water ice and the Eagles!!! Makes me miss home!! And also writing down Angelo’s for the next time we are there!!

As a Brit, one of my culinary highlights was eating a Cheesesteak in Philly, an outstanding experience. I hope you got to Reading Market, which is an absolute must!!

Im British and been to Philly loads of times. Max’s, Delisandro and Angelo’s are my favourite. Try John’s roast pork to have a life changing experience

New Jolly content and KE, this is a great start to the new year. Ollie is the dude! His humor is off the chart and I’m in tears every time I watch you guys from laughing so hard. Keep the content going. You guys are my sanity from the craziness in the states. 😂

YESSSSSS omg I've been WAITING for this one!!! Chris really took you to Angelo's and got you with the Cooper Sharp, I nearly broke my neck nodding "that's love" Philly native here and I'm so glad y'all got to enjoy yourselves

Thank god you went to Angelo’s! Philly is an UNBELIEVABLE food city. Hope you were able to do more than just cheesesteaks. It has some of the best Mediterranean food in the country and so much more. Reading Terminal market is a special, special place. Really hope you got to see all that the city has to offer 🔥🙏

Ollie's description of the food is always hilarious and josh calling him out is always a fun video to watch 😂

First, you guys are GREAT, and your videos are very, very well produced. It was very smart to have a small crew of professionals. You have great, likable personalities. I've lived in Philly over 20 years. The bread made for almost every place producing cheesesteaks is superb, fresh and different than you'll find other places. By far my favorite way of getting a steak is with provolone and sautéed peppers and onions.

Damn, so pumped my hometown is being rep'd! We did a Seoul vs. Philly cheesesteak episode on our channel awhile back, but only tried Angelo's more recently - and lord almighty it is the real deal. Better than any of the ones we tried prior to that. I would love to see several more episodes of Josh and Ollie trying what Philadelphia has to offer. It punches above its weight! Thanks for coming fellas... ❤

They myth that whiz is the classic persists. While it has overtaken, the best places don't serve it. The classic is, and always will be the original: sharp provolone.

I lived in Pittsburg around 20 years ago and they had a Pittsburg cheese steak which was basically a Philly with French fries on top. It was AMAZING!

Omg love seeing Chris’ content, this is the mashup we needed

I love how the guy in the red sweater is quietly dying of laughter in the background

Honestly, to me the hardest thing about finding a good cheesesteak outside of Philly is the roll. Most places use a roll that just doesn't work and is usually too soft on the outside. Now I've run into places in Kansas City and Denver that specifically say they get Amoroso rolls flown in. Those might actually be places that can make a good cheesesteak because they recognize the importance the roll plays in the final product.

Yessss! So happy you got the right info after you came to town. As a Roxborough girl, I’ve been told to rep D’Alessandro’s but Angelo’s is absolutely the right move as you learn your preferences! Maybe shouldn’t have started Whiz Wit’ cause I think a Swiss is easier to approach first, but Chef Cho has done right by you. Hope you picked up some classic other bites while in town-or grabbed some peanut chews or O’Ryan’s Irish Potato candies before leaving town!

Cooper sharp cheese is sooooooo good and sooooooo underrated. Every restaurant in America should have it !!!!

I moved from Jersey to down south and I cannot express to you how much I miss Wawa and being so close to getting a good Philly cheesesteak. Glad you guys got to enjoy them.

When they were saying someone born and raised in Philly, I was hoping for it to be the fresh prince.

As a Philadelphian, I love this video. Having moved away, I missed the cheesesteak and def need to visit soon. Wawa and water ice are def also staples that y’all should also try soon

*and suddenly I want a Philly cheesesteak for lunch*

There's a spot in London called Passyunk Ave that's supposed to do legit cheesesteaks. Glad Chris called them out on calling it a "Philly cheesesteak"!

Ducky's look at 4:06 as Luke takes a bit is priceless.

Went to law school outside of Philly. Was *very* happy that Pat’s and Geno’s were open at 1:00AM. Love watching your adventures and proud of everything you guys have accomplished. Congrats on your continued success! 💖

To wizz means to piss in the US as well.

I’m a simple guy, I see a Jolly video, I click, watch and like. PHILLIPPING GREAT!

I love it when you feed the crew. it is like feeding time at the zoo. 4:04

There's three key ingredients to a great cheesesteak - the roll, the meat, and the cheese. While that sounds stupid and obvious, as a local tour guide, history buff, and foodie/cook here in Philly, I can tell you even places here, but especially around the world, get this simple sandwich wrong. The roll, which we call a hoagie or steak roll in Philly, needs to be super crisp (not like a 5 day old french baguette crisp) to help trap the ingredients, outside, and super soft inside to sop up all of the juices from the meat (and onions if you get them) as well as the melted cheese. Having the wrong roll is what about 49% of places do to make it a bad sandwich. The meat needs to be paper thin slices. Here in Philly, most legit places, even the local neighborhood pizza/sandwich shops, used Ribeye steaks that have been frozen, and then cut on a deli slicer, as you would with any cold cut or lunch meat. If it's a good cut of meat and properly sliced thin, you can put it down on the griddle frozen as it will only take a few minutes, I mean 3-4, to get to the right spot. You want the meat perfectly medium. No red/pink, but DEFINITELY not medium well or well done. Some places like Geno's or Steve's Prince of Steaks in Philly will literally leave the slices as the are and some people prefer that. Other places, like Pat's (who invented it in the 1930's) will "chop", or pull the slices about into finer and finer pieces. You don't need it to be mince meat thin, but chopping it up, in my humble opinion, gives it a better mouth feel as you can just bite into the sandwich, chew a few times quickly, and boom, ready for another slice whereas the places that don't chop it up, the pieces of meat can be harder to chew and then you end up chewing on the meat long past when the part of the roll, the onions (or other toppings), in that bite you just took have already made it to your stomach. The meat is what about 49% of places get wrong. Hell, I've even scene celebrity chefs like Gordon Ramsey use "steak" - and leave the pieces of meat so thick that you'd think you were eating a literal steak on a roll. It's disgusting. The other key ingredient is the cheese. Liquid Cheese Wiz, American (sliced or in liquid form), and Provolone all work. Specific versions of American - like Cooper Sharp, and Provolone give them a much more sophisticated taste, for a sandwich, as does adding a bit of your favorite toppings - fried onions, fried/warmed pickle slices (not whole damn spears), and/or very finely cut and fried peppers (hot or mild doesn't matter). NEVER put Cheddar, Swiss, or anything else on it for the authentic taste/flavor. US Presidential candidate John Kerry was mocked on local/national media back in 2004 for coming to Philly and trying to order one with Swiss....lol. The cheese is usually only wrong about 2% of the time. You can put some ketchup on it. NEVER mustard, never mayo (in my opinion)....and never anything else in terms of condiments. The ketchup, more is okay for kids, should be just enough to help aid in softening up the roll and adding a little bit of acidity and tang to the meat/cheese/onion flavor. You don't drown the damn thing in ketchup once you're 13 or older. And if you ever come to Philly, the proper way to order is "# of cheesesteaks in this style", the cheese style, with or without (wit or witout) fried onions, and then if you want to add pickles, peppers, or something that comes next. Some places have condiments and veggies (besides onions) out for you to add at your leisure. If you don't see them, then would end the order with veggies (if you want any) and then you can ask for ketchup (or not) on it. So a proper order would sound like "yeah hi, can I get 1 (insert "cheesesteak if the place sells more than that", american, wit, fried pickles (if they have them), ketchup please. Then can I get 1, whiz, witout, light ketchup). Boom, that simple.

Aye! Thanks for coming out to philly and showing love! - Chyfann

Go to Reading Terminal Market!!!! I lived in Philly for 7 years in Manayunk. I miss it so much. I especially miss WaWa!

Thanks for coming out to Philly! Glad you liked it!❤ I hope you checked reading terminal market.

Thanks for the great local tip on where to get a good cheesesteak! And seriously, my mouth is watering 😋

Love this! I researched and went to Angelo's for my 1st authentic cheesesteak. I waited for more than an hour for my order (with cooper's sharp) and it was worth every second of that wait. GREAT video!

Literally when my sister saw you guys were in Philly via Instagram, we both were excited and devastated at the same time. We wanted to meet you but knew it was impossible. I hope you guys tried the water ice, pretzels, hoagies/Wawa and went to Reading Terminal.

When you're back in London check out Passyunk Avenue! The owners moved from Philly and opened several locations of the restaurant. You can get a cheesesteak and a city wide special (PBR beer and a shot). Also, try Iskabibbles on South Street or John's Roast Pork next time you're in Philly, both have amazing cheesesteaks!

absolutely amazing to see some real philly culture and someone explaining water ice

2:55 The first bite of a cheesesteak of this video is AMAZING! The sound of the crunch, crinkling paper, smacking and oh hot/ Pleasure sounds are awesome! Welcome to Philadelphia and congratulations on your 1st cheesesteak! ❤

As someone who waited to have a cheesesteak until they were in Philly, I love getting to see Josh & Ollie trying them for the first time there as well. Having Chef Chris along for it is absolutely fantastic. The cross-over I didn't know I needed until now. :3 💙💙

I’m from delco and I’m so happy you went to Angelo’s. Love this channel

Jolly needs to start opening restaurants in the UK. They keep saying, “we don’t have this”, so make it!

I'm so glad you guys came to visit Philly. I hope you got to try more of our foods before you left. People don't usually realize that philly is full of foodies super serious about good food. You're pretty much born that way here. You had some cheesesteaks you should absolutely try the cheesesteak eggroll. It was one of my favorite sides/snacks growing up. And obvi can only be found here. They mentioned pretzels, water ice, and Wawa. Definite pics. But you should visit Chinatown, The Italian Market, Old City, and Reading Terminal Market amongst others. There's tons of foods invented here/only found here if you look.

John's roast pork is absolutely awesome for cheese steaks and roast pork

Never knew how happy it would make me to see you try my hometown food until you went to philly! Wawa, Philly Soft Pretzels, and water ice are what I was raised on!! Reading Terminal Market and Chinatown are also both Phill classics!

Millions of subs and millions of views and Josh and Ollie are still surprised and delighted when they are recognised x

Josh and ollie should make one or two episodes tours foods in the midwest. To be completely honest the food isn't that interesting, but there are loads of amazing mom and pop restaurants and great bbq places. This is definitely not coming from personal bias, but I personally think that it would be a fun couple episodes.

Yeah, I love Philly cheese steak, but never had it in Philadelphia. So, I don't know how great it can be. Great video y'all. Hey Chef Cho, chopped bulgogi and kimchi cheesesteak your way on your show. Do it for all the Korean-Americans, because we know that's gonna be fire!

YESSSSSSS! You asked the right person for guidance🎉🎉🎉🎉

I make my own here in Connecticut where I toast local bread from Wolcott in garlic butter and the cheese I use is melted Vermont Cheddar in gobs over sliced steak and battered onion rings. It’s actually a favorite in my household

Boys - I'm so sorry to hear you have had mental health struggles. You have made me laugh so many times, and you bring joy to thousands of people with your videos.. I hope you feel better now. Lots of love from a Danish fan ❤

I saw this notification and ordered a Philly cheesesteak on DoorDash. Good influencers on Jolly. Josh and Ollie are clutch.

It was wonderful seeing you in my hometown. I’m no longer in Philly and it is nearly impossible to find a good cheese steak. I was hoping you would try other locations. I prefer my cheese steak on Amaroso rolls, they’re not as hard and chewy.

I really enjoy and appreciate your channel and watch every upload.

Chris and Chief have immaculate vibes. That food looks absolutely delicious.

Ok....ROADTRIP!!! I am now craving a cheesesteak. Used to be stationed at Dover...would go to Philly on the weekends...Live in MA now...If I remember correctly, it only takes about 9 hours to get there...WORTH IT!!!

I've been waiting for you to come to Philly and try a cheesesteak! Lots of places try to duplicate it but it doesn't even compare! I'm so glad you finally came here to try one! Also, most locals don't go to Pat's or Geno's for a good cheesesteak. There are so many more solid places.

Hey hey hey, I'm an American, and I think cucumber sandwiches are amazing!! So refreshing and moreish!

Finally JOLLY is in Philly!! Welcome to Pa ❤

I’ve been waiting for this!! Welcome to Philly boys!!

Love watching these guys, but I really love seeing the kids reactions... I think a holiday needs to be done for them to come to the us and try more great food 😊.

I grew up in south jersey and I miss the food in Philly so much. Reading Terminal is my happy place. I miss having a Wawa pretty much walking distance from anywhere.

i went to philly once and everywhere was closed except this one place we found that had like a record length bar lol but i had whiz and provolone on my cheesesteak and it haunts me to this day it was so good and this was a decade or two ago lmao

Hey guys… Even though it was an advertisement, thank you so much for the message that you put out there about mental health, honorable mention with the way Ollie took the tense subject about the message of mental health and made it Funny and relaxed. I’ve been going through it. American war vet. I don’t know what I would do without mental health coaching. You guys rock in so many ways.

LOL former philly resident, I was literally saying out lout, "Oh no, they're gonna go to the tourist spots" (geno's, pat's). And then you went to MY FAVORITE PLACE.

I really enjoyed watching you enjoy. As a Philadelphia native, I have eaten them my whole life. Honestly, Tony Luke’s is my favorite. ❤️

Lifelong Philadelphian here. Provolone cheese and fried onions are the best combo!

Loving these collaboration with local youtubers!

I love that you accepted mental health for ads. There are so many people that struggle and don’t feel it is acceptable to get help. Thank you all so much for helping destigmatizing it and encouraging people to get help. Your videos are great but your public service ads are helping so many people!! I am a mental health navigator and people are still a little embarrassed about it so I truly appreciate all you are doing to make it ok for people to reach out for help.

So glad y’all went to Angelo’s… their pizza is amazing too probably the best in Philly… they also bake all their own bread… the quality of everything is very high for being a pizza spot

Smart move getting tips from locals. They always know best!

Finally! Been waiting for them to check out Philly and get a cheesesteak! ❤ OMG I hope they film them going to a Wawa!

I've tried them all in Philly, but the best one I ever had was in Atlanta. It also had mushrooms, onions, and green peppers. Amazing!

When I was at the National Constitution Center in 2019 for a teacher institute, my Uber driver recommended the cheesesteaks at Jim’s on Sputh Street. It was FABULOUS!!! Always ask the locals!

I'm just going to say that you need to try the original Cuban sandwich here in Florida. Tampa boasts the best and the most original down in ybor City... But Miami also boast a great one too

Dude thinks that a "sub" sandwich is short for "Subway" lol. It's short for "submarine" because of its shape.
