Here’s a quick shot of the cheesesteak Morimoto (723 Chestnut St.) started offering yesterday as a World Series special. It’s Wagyu beef, “wit” soy-sautĂ©ed onions, enoki mushrooms and grilled scallions on an Amoroso’s roll, and it comes with a salad, fries and tonkatsu dipping sauce for $35. They’ve also just introduced Cracker Jack-flavored ice cream for $10.
In tangentially related news, here is an awesome pic of Morimoto pitching. The chef was actually a highly touted baseball prospect in his day before a serious injury precipitated a career change. Picture source: Marinerds, etc.

That photo of Morimoto is probably now my favorite photo ever.
