    PHILADELPHIA - July 20, 2006 - Harry Olivieri, the brother of the man who turned his hot dog stand into a Philadelphia culinary landmark, has died. Olivieri died of natural causes Thursday morning the at the Mainland AC Medical Center.
    He was 90 years old.
    What the world knows as Pat's Steaks at 9th and Passyunk started out as a humble hot dog stand.
    Legend has it that Pat Olivieri discovered the cheesesteak in 1930 when he was looking for something different for his own lunch.
    A cab driver asked for a bite and told Pat he should sell the new sandwich instead of hot dogs.
    Pat died in the 1970s.
    Harry's son, Frank, continues to run the restaurant.
