I have just recently discovered an incredibly delicious cheese steak up near Chaplin, Connecticut. There's a van parked on the side of route 6, it's plugged into a truck with a generator and you would never know it's there.

This place is called Hideaway Steaks and Stuff and it's run by two guys, one seems to do the business while the other is the cook. I've never had a real Philly cheese steak, let's make that clear right now. However, this is by far the best cheesesteak I've ever had, and at the very least competes with everywhere else I've tried in Connecticut.

They also have some other solid things on the menu, but there's about six things total and then hosmer soda.

Highly recommend this place to anybody who likes cheese steaks, they also offer them in chicken and mushroom.

Please tip well.

Traditional Philly cheese steak doesn't come with wiz. It's most commonly served with American or provolone cheese. But it is actually delicious, and if I find myself ordering a true Philly, I have been known to get one with wiz.

The truth is that on the very rare occasion I find myself in Philly, the pork sandwich or stromboli always wins out, because no one can even come close up here.

Oh, That was back in 1994. I'm scheduled for a back surgery procedure next month due to all the abuse I took playing soccer.

Looks like that team would know some of the old players I used to play with from Hartford Bolognesi, Hartford Argentina, New Britain Stars, and Plantsville Brenna, and Meriden Inters.

Thats a great bunch of players in those photos.
