We’re starting a new feature on Thursdays called Wall Street Winners. FiDi Mama, a resident of the Financial District who has the Money Grub blog, will be writing about one food truck or cart in the downtown area each week as a guest reviewer for New York Street Food. As FiDi Mama says: “My goal is to eat my way through all the promising food carts around Wall Street and the Financial District during the Spring and Summer of 2010.” Here’s hoping she decides to keep it going after the summer.
Her bio – Fidi Mama returned to New York, her birthplace, in 2007. But she is still a foreign correspondent at heart. To make stay-at-home mother days more interesting, she and her 22-month old daughter, HD, scan their Wall Street neighborhood for exotic and delicious street food. Fidi Mama also studied at the Institute of Culinary Education full-time for two months in the summer of 1995, when it was called Peter Kump’s New York Cooking School. But most of her opinions come from years of eating street food around the world, from Taiwan to Morocco.
FiDi Mama reviews 2 or 3 downtown places a week on her site. If you are interested in downtown street food options, make sure to check out her Money Grub website.
For FiDi Mama’’s first New York Street Food review, we have selected Veronica’s Kitchen on the corner of Front and Pine Street. Veronica’s Kitchen was a Vendy Award finalist a few years ago, which solidified her reputation as one of the best food carts downtown.
Let’s give FiDi Mama a warm NYSF welcome – and click through for her full review.
