Morimoto Adds Cheesesteak
Posted by Foobooz on October 29th, 2009
Morimoto has added an upscale cheesesteak to its menu in honor of the Phillies being in the World Series. It’s made with wagyu beef and topped with sweet soy sauteed onions, enoki mushrooms and grilled scallions on an Amoroso roll. The sandwich is served with house made made tonkatsu sauce (Japanese ketchup), pommes frites and a seasonal salad for $35.
Also added to the menu is Cracker Jack ice cream for a chilly $10.

Amoroso roll, no cheese? No thanks!

I am pretty much an Amoroso’s hater but for this sandwich, a softer roll is definitely appropriate. Sarcone’s would have too much chew for this guy… that said, there must be better soft rolls out there than Amoroso’s.
