The owner of the restaurant credited with inventing the Philly cheesesteak will step behind the counter of a Long Island pizzeria wearing New York Knicks apparel after coming up short on a friendly wager.
The appearance is scheduled for an upcoming date that has not yet been disclosed. Under the terms of the bet, the restaurateur agreed to travel from Philadelphia to Long Island, don Knicks gear and cook for customers at the pizzeria.
The light-hearted gamble was prompted by a recent sports matchup, according to the exclusive report. Details of the game, the final score and the precise stakes of the wager were not revealed.
Both establishments expect the event to draw curious diners eager to witness a Philadelphia food icon serve up New York–style slices while clad in rival basketball colors.
