Next Stop: Geno's

Some hometown awsomeness! Joe Vento, owner and operator of Geno's Steaks, has leveled the dreaded American cluebat of common sense. Apparently, demanding that patrons order in English (the official and national language of the USA) is enough to warrant a piece in the Inqy trying to "temper" his sentiments.

I'll have none of the self-flagellating. Good on Joe Vento - you do indeed speak for the majority of Americans. I'm usually a Pat's kind of guy, but my next trip down to 9th and Passyunk is reserved for a nice fat Geno's Whiz With (with bell peppers).

That sounds so deliciously naughty. Can't wait!
