Philadelphia Phillies: Environmentally Friendly and Family Friendly

If you're looking for somewhere to go in your Nissan car this summer, consider a trip to Citizens Bank Park to see the Phillies play baseball. The Philadelphia Phillies aren’t just the top Major League baseball team in the country. Now, the Philadelphia Phillies have led the charge to help out the world around them. They are the first Major League Baseball team to have joined the “Green Power Partnership” program run by the Environmental Protection Agency.

One way that the Phillies have worked to participate in this program is through sales at Citizens Bank Park, home of the Phillies. At the park, produce that is locally grown, as well as organic foods, are sold. In addition, the park is using LED lighting and putting recycled products to use. Perhaps most impressive is that the Phillies purchased  20 million kilowatt-hours of Green-e Energy, the equivalent to planting 100,000 trees.

In addition to being environmentally friendly, Citizens Bank Park is also kid-friendly. You’ll find, for example, the Phanatic Fun Zone. Here, children can enjoy a play area, where they can rock climb, build their own Phanatic, and enjoy hot dogs and soft drinks for just a dollar.

All About the Philadelphia Cheesesteak

When you drive your 2009 Nissan Maxima to visit Philadelphia this winter, make sure you stop in to one of the city’s many resturaunts to get a genuine Cheesesteak. This unique Philadelphia sandwich was invented back in 1930 by Pat Olivieri, and There are plenty of places to find a classic one today.

If you want thin sliced and finely chopped beef, consider going to Roxborough’s Dalessandro’s. If you want more coarsely chopped beef with Cheez Wiz rather than cheese, get over to Passyunk Avenue to Pat’s. However, the thick, extra-cheesey fare you’ll find over at John’s Roast Pork in South Philadelphia is, to many locals, the ultimate Philly Cheesesteak.

It’s important to know how to order your cheesesteak, as well. You need to let the order taker know you want a certain kind of cheese, as well as whether you want fried onions. You might say, for example, that you want “one wiz with,” which means you want one sandwich with Cheez Wiz and onions. You might say you want “three provolone without” which means you want three sandwiches with provolone cheese without fried onions.

Get to one of Philadelphia’s great cheesesteak vendors today and try out your cheesesteak ordering skills. To get there, visit your Turnersville-area Nissan dealer and check out the 2009 Nissan Maxima.
