Food Finds in the Lower Hudson Valley

Iron Chef Competition: Philly Cheesesteak v. New York Pizza? Or…..?

October
22

Help me plan the food section. On the chance that the Yanks take one out of the next three and head to the series, we’re planing a Philly v. New York menu.

Think about it. If all goes as planned, on Sunday, Nov. 1, the Eagles play the Giants at 4 and the Phillies play the Yankees at  7…. all in Philadelphia. So what we will be doing here in NY? Watching TV. All day!

So we gotta eat. We’ve got the cheesesteak.

For NY? Pizza? Hot dogs? Other?

I’m thinking of rallying readers to make their own versions of the two — like an Iron Chef competion. So for a cheesesteak, maybe you’ll make it with gorgonzola and shallots instead of onions and provolone!

Or toppings for pizza. As you saw in this piece, my husband and I like to play Iron Pizza Chef. He always does pepperoni and olive. I’ll do just about anything. (On Monday it was a three-cheese pizza — mozz, parm and romano — with sun gold tomatoes, basil and egg, drizzled with olive oil at the end.)

So? First of all, would you play?

The game plan would be to prep everything before the football game, then serve either during half time or between games…. then declare a winner after baseball?

What do y’all think?
