Philly Shout Out: Dom The Stainless Steel Chef.
I have been meaning for a while now to post baout my favorite Philly street vendor Dom. He has a cart outside of the Ben Franklin Building on 9th between Chestunt & Samson. He is absolutely hilarious with his renditions of popular songs and makes a mean Bacon, Egg and Cheese sandwich. I always have the same order everyday (a toasted poppy bagel). Dom sings as he make his order. He likes to change the words to the pop tunes to fit what he is making. For my order he sings the Madonna song "Papa Don't Preach" caltering the words to "Poppy Don't Preach". I guess you have to be there to hear him. :) Today I left my umbrella home and got caught in some nasty rain on the way to work. I stopped by Dom's cart to get my usual, and I complained that I left my umbrella. Do you know that he lent me his own personal umbrella so that I could get to work dry? Just when I lost my faith in humanity this really lifted my spirits! Thank you DOM!
