TODAY’S LUNCH: CHILI BREAD BOWL FROM MEXICUE

Before I went to LA, I read a tweet from Mexicue, the current New York Street Food Featured Vendor about a new menu item - a chili bread bowl.  I've always enjoyed bread bowls from Au Bon Pain, but didn't have a chance to visit Mexicue until today, and this seemed like the perfect meal for a cold winter...

MOBILE MUNCHIES FOR WED, FEB 2ND

The worst of the storm appears to be over.  Some New York Street Food vendors made it out today - the trucks below and the carts on the right - so give them your business.  If you don't see a food truck below, they probably didn't make it out. Some of the trucks offer pre-ordering by phone. We highly recommend...

FOOD TRUCK TABLE SERVICE HEADS WEST

When I was in LA last week, the LA Times got all breathless about a new food truck event called Truckit Fest that will gather together dozens of LA's food trucks at downtown Union Station on the first Sunday of each month, beginning March 6th. According to the LA Times, the big news is this event will feature table service. If...

NYSF FIRST LOOK: KOREAN TACO SET FROM BIG D’S GRUB TRUCK

When I was in LA last week, I read about a new Korean taco truck on Thrillist called Big D's Grub Truck.  It took a little while for the Korean taco trend to head east from Kogi BBQ in LA to The Krave in NJ to Korilla BBQ and the Kimchi Taco Truck in NYC - and now...

NYSF IN LA: MEXICAN CHOCOLATE ICE CREAM SANDWICH FROM COOLHAUS

One of the stops I had to make in LA was Coolhaus, who are best known for their architecturally themed ice cream sandwiches.  Back in September, when I saw they were coming to NY in Spring 2011, I did a short post about it, which Natasha from Coolhaus noticed and wrote to thank me. I asked Natasha to keep me...

NYSF IN LA: PASTRAMI SANDWICH FROM CANTER’S DELI FOR THE TRIP HOME

As I was heading to the airport, I was thinking about what food to get for the trip.  American Airlines only has food for purchase at this point, and if I have to buy food, it won’t be airline food. I had to leave for the airport before most of the trucks were open, but I was thinking about the...

NYSF IN LA: BLUE CHEER BURGER FROM THE GRILL ‘EM ALL TRUCK

It was my last working day in LA, and I was bummed out.  The Grill 'Em All truck (who won the Great Food Truck Race last year) was at Universal Gate 2 on Valleyheart, where I had lunch every day this week from a different food truck. Unfortunately, I also had a business lunch that I had to attend on...

NYSF IN LA: GRILLED PORK BANH MI FROM THE MANDOLINE GRILL TRUCK

As NYSF readers know, I really like banh mi and num pang, the Cambodian version of Vietnamese banh mi.  While I get num pang fairly often in New York, I don't get banh mi nearly as much - but L.A. has a bunch of banh mi trucks. Since L.A. can be a bitch to get around, I decided to try...
