MOBILE MUNCHIES FOR THURS, JAN 20TH

Once again, it's the calm before the storm, with an estimated 2-4 inches of snow due tonight and into tomorrow morning.  If that happens, we don't expect to have a Mobile Munchies post or a street food lunch tomorrow. Wafels & Dinges is branching out with another savory dish - a spicy maple sausage & gravy wafel, topped w chopped...

TODAY’S LUNCH: WHITING SANDWICH FROM KIM’S AUNT KITCHEN

The recent NYSF Guest Post from Charlotte of Simonseeks.com entitled "An English Girl's Take On The Best NYC Mobile Eats" gave me a hankering for fried fish from Kim's Aunt Kitchen. They are on 46th St just east of 6th Ave with a big "Food Is Love" sign on the right side of the cart. It feels like forever since...

MOBILE MUNCHIES FOR WED, JAN 19TH

It's a bit warmer out today (for January), so get out and enjoy some great New York Street Food from the vendors on the right and the trucks below. New York Street Food would like to extend our sincere condolences to Samira and Grant of Sweetery NYC on the passing of Samira's mother.  Sweetery NYC will not be out today...

E.L.F. (EVERYBODY LIKES FREE): 7 FREE LUNCHES FROM TENKA

Tenka, the mobile daily deal site where you don't have to buy anything in advance, has a great new deal called Eat Free NYC.  It's not street food, but hey, we figure E.L.F. (Everybody Likes Free). You can get free lunch from one of 7 places in midtown - Burrito Joint, Pita Grill, Curry In A Hurry, Tina's Cuban Cuisine,...

FOOD TRUCK WARS REACH NEW HEIGHTS ON THE UPPER EAST SIDE

From DNAInfo: Paty's Taco Truck, which has built a loyal following on the Upper East Side corner over the last two years but was ousted from the neighborhood more than a month ago, was towed away by the NYPD just after 1pm today (Tuesday).  The truck has been on Lexington Ave between 86th & 87th St for more than...

VANCOUVER PLAYS “BIG MOTHER” WITH ITS STREET FOOD

The Vancouver City Council (dubbed "Big Mother" by some of its inhabitants for their habit of trying to tell everyone what's good for them) will be increasing the number of street food vendors from 80 to 140 by this summer, with an increase of 15 vendors per year after 2011. Instead of allowing just any operation to set up shop...

TODAY’S LUNCH: LAMB BURRITO FROM CALEXICO CARNE ASADA

The recent NYSF Guest Post from Charlotte of Simonseeks.com entitled "An English Girl's Take On The Best NYC Mobile Eats" reminded us of just how exceptional the food at Calexico Carne Asada is.  And the daily special of ground lamb, cilantro, onions and their "crack" chipotle salsa was the perfect excuse to go there again - so despite the...

MOBILE MUNCHIES FOR TUES, JAN 18TH

It's not a pretty day outside, but you can still get some great New York Street Food.  Most of the vendors appear to be working, so give them your business on this crappy day - and call ahead if you can.  We highly recommend it. A lot of trucks needed to move on short notice last week, so check the...

NYSF FIRST LOOK: CUPCAKE CREW

Cupcake Crew has been around for a couple of months now, but we didn't get a chance to check them out until recently, so this is our First Look. Cupcake Crew was generally parking at 34th St & Park Ave, which is very difficult for us to get to during lunchtime, but we recently saw a tweet saying they were...

MOBILE MUNCHIES FOR MON, JAN 17TH

Some of the trucks are out and some are taking the day off for MLK Day. The trucks that are out are listed below.  If you don't see someone, they took the day off for MLK Day. Enjoy the day off if you have it.  If not, guess it's just a regular week, but you can still enjoy some great...
