  • In this episode I wanted to highlight L&M corner store in South Philly 5th and Wolf as well as let the world know how the corner store on the East Coast provides great meals at an affordable price. You can find cheesesteaks, breakfast sandwiches, Rice dishes, pastellilos, empanadas and more at certain corner stores aka papi stores aka bodegas. Drop a comment on your favorite corner store and I just may visit.

    Nothing like the $5 corner store Cheesesteak and Hoagie

    My family grew up just one block up on this street on 5th and Jackson and L&M (formally known as CJ’s) had been a staple in this part of South Philly for many many years. After CJ’s was closed down the to an overnight fires few years ago, my good friend and his family decided to take over and continue this tradition of a “hood corner store” and has been popping ever since. Please y’all, I’d suggest you give this place a try for an affordable price and you will not be disappointed!

      That’s exactly what we do cheesesteak hoagie still under $10. And most times they give us a large cheese fry or onion rings on the house. They stayed open for the whole pandemic the deliver to the elderly neighbors only. We support our local small business. Plus they are nice!

    You should check out Tanos Deli in Fox Chase. Family run since 1991! Awesome sandwiches that are made with love! Owner Tano is there 7 days a week and seems to never miss a day.
