最新报道:Philly cheesesteak icon Pat's King of Steaks is considering market pricing for its signature sandwiches as beef costs surge. The Philadelphia landmark, known for its fixed-price menu since 1930, may adjust prices daily based on fluctuating meat expenses. Owner Frank Olivieri Jr. cited a 12% increase in beef prices over the past year, squeezing profit margins at the cash-only establishment. The potential shift comes as restaurants nationwide grapple with rising food costs, particularly for beef which has seen significant inflation. Pat's currently charges $13 for its classic cheesesteak, but may implement variable pricing to maintain quality without drastic menu price hikes.
