A legendary Philly cheese steak shop founder caught a lot of slack for his Speak English sign back in 2006. People who couldn't speak English were holding up the lines like crazy and there aren't many (if any) places in that city with higher volume than Geno's, 24-7.
“This is AMERICA, When ordering, speak English.”
Place was always so efficient and clean, we always said you could eat off the sidewalks. SPOTLESS and those guys were NEVER still/taking breaks. It was called "Work Ethic", now all but eradicated by the Communists.
Apparently his son has defied his dying wish and removed it. Not many Italians left in South Philly after the infiltration. It's more like a foreign country there now, so no wonder. They'll now, probably, have to depend on the crowds when the clubs/bars close more than anything.
