TODAY’S LUNCH: WALL STREET WINNERS – THE JAMAICAN CURRY CART

August 12th, 2010

It’s time for this week’s installment of Wall St. Winners – reviews of downtown street food vendors by FiDi Mama of the Money Grub blog.  Unfortunately, this is the last review being done by FiDi Mama because she recently moved out of the Financial District and will be doing other things (like raising her child).

If you would like to write a review about a particular street food vendor, please email perry@newyorkstreetfood.com.  It doesn’t have to be a FiDi street food vendor, or even in NYC.  If it’s great street food, we want you to tell us about it.

We would love to have some new voices on New York Street Food, and we know many of you have interesting things to say.  Of course, a regular downtown correspondent to replace FiDi Mama would be awesome too.

This week’s Wall St. Winner is the Jamaican Curry cart on Whitehall.  What makes them a Wall St. Winner?  Find out after the jump.

WALL STREET WINNERS: LA CENSE BEEF TRUCK

July 8th, 2010

It’s Thursday, which means it’s time for Wall Street Winners at lunchtime with our downtown guest reviewer, FiDi Mama of the Money Grub website.  This week, FiDi Mama reviews the La Cense Beef (LCB) Burger Truck.

The LCB truck was around in midtown last summer and into early fall, but then mysteriously disappeared in September, well before the outdoor dining season was over.  Nobody seemed to know what happened to it – until recently, when it just as suddenly appeared on Wall Street.

Without further ado, click through for FiDi Mama’s full review.
