Chartroose Caboose

Despite the daunting zoning-permit hurdles and giant helicopter fees, the folks at Chartroose Caboose have managed to relocate a chunk of Philadelphia real estate to Kansas City with their delightfully authentic cheesesteakery. Each Chartroose Philly boasts 6 ounces of lean beef flavored in the restaurant’s exclusive mixture of spices. If that’s a little too much red meat for you, Chartroose is happy to retrofit your cheesesteak with chicken, turkey, ham, or even salmon. These sandwiches come with a Rocky-style training montage as each cheesesteak is grilled fresh to order with onion, mushrooms, and peppers sizzled up right before your eyes, nose, and impatient mouth.
