Philly's Best comes to American Dreams
New hit NBC show cast & crew enjoys a taste of Philly's Best!
On the road again - this time to Hollywood, CA - for Philly's Best owners Bob & Andrea Levey as they answered the personal call from Philly native, actor Tom Verica, who portrays Jack Pryor on the new hit drama from NBC - American Dreams. On Friday, November 1st, the cast and crew were treated to the authentic taste of Philly's Best cheesesteaks on location at Sunset Gower Studios in Hollywood, California.
All it took was a call from Philly's own Tom Verica to Andrea at Philly's Best (who is a HUGE fan of the show) and by the end of the day's shooting; the cast and crew were feeling like true Philadelphians.
All shared in the authentic taste of Philly's Best cheesesteaks, chicken cheesesteaks, Tastykakes¨, Goldenberg's Peanut Chews¨, Frank's¨ sodas and Wise¨ potato chips. Then the Philly's Best crew was treated to an executive tour (given personally by Tom's Dad) of all of the show's sets and the entire soundstage at Sunset Gower Studios.
American Dreams -- set against the memorable, upbeat sounds of the 1960s -- depicts a more innocent America as seen through the youthful Pryor family of Philadelphia as they brace for cultural turbulence ahead that still resonates in this contemporary era. The show can be seen each Sunday at 8:00 pm on NBC and was recently renewed for an entire season.
Philly's Best sends out a very big 'thank you' to the wonderful folks at Sunset Gower Studios and especially to native Philadephian, Tom Verica, for the invite to cater lunch for the cast and crew and to his father for the "behind-the-scenes" tour.
Maybe Bob and Andrea's dream will come true of having a Philly's Best sandwich or restaurant location show up on a future episode of American Dreams to add some more Philly flavor to this great new show!
