New York Street Food

A new Chinese/Indian food truck recently hit the street called Taipan Express. There's a cool dragon on the side of the truck, but it just as easily could have been a phoenix, because this truck arose from the ashes of Fresh & Hearty. You can see it's the same truck with a new wrap, and the guy running the...

One of the better food trucks to open last summer was DiSO’s Italian Sandwich Society. It’s like an excellent Italian deli on wheels, and Italian heros are among our favorite types of sandwiches. The meats and cheeses are freshly sliced to order, making service a little on the slow side, but the food is worth it! Our previous lunches at DiSO’s...

Walking up Fifth Avenue in the Flatiron District last week, we spotted a new truck call Luckyim Thai. We already had lunch in hand that day, but made a note to look up Luckyim's twitter account to find them again. This time, we checked their twitter feed and made a beeline to the truck, which was parked at 22nd St &...

One of the mainstays of the NYC food truck scene is Big D's Grub Truck. They are out serving their customers on the coldest, snowiest and windiest days of winter. Dennis (Big D) has a new cart he came out with last week featuring pan-Asian dishes. We will be writing about that new cart soon. The menu choices on the truck...

You can't tell from this week, but we're inexorably heading towards spring. Despite the crappy weather, new food trucks are blooming left and right. The latest food truck we found is called Schnitzi, and they specialize in lots of different permutations of schnitzel. Man, that's one angry-looking chicken on the side of the truck! Guess you would be angry too...

Taco Bite first hit the NYC streets in the Summer of 2012, when a former employee of the Tribeca Taco Truck went out on his own. The menus are fairly similar, but there have been a few changes since we last had a bite at Taco Bite. In addition to tacos, burritos and quesadillas, they now offer burritas, which are...

A new food truck parked by our office on Monday called Yume Teriyaki Grill. The guy we spoke with taking orders, Douglas, said they've been around for a month or so, but mostly parked downtown by Wall St. As a new vendor, they are exploring new areas, and we were happy to give them some pointers. Broadway between 55th &...

Hello NYC Foodies! Harlem Eats would like to thank NYSF for giving us this forum to extend a warm invitation to you all for the 2014 Harlem Food Truck Rally, March 29th, 11AM-6PM, Frederick Douglas Blvd between 117th and 118th streets. The Harlem Food Truck Rally is a celebration of Harlem’s second Renaissance—the food renaissance! We will be hosting some...

Back in late 2010, Korilla BBQ took the NYC food truck world by storm, as the first Korean fusion street vendor in our fair city. (Now there are at least 4.) Korilla went on to win the 2011 Vendy Award for Rookie of the Year, and since then, have had some ups and downs, which we won't go into here. After...

This lunch was another testament to the fact that you should stroll through our Mobile Munchies twitter feed before heading out to lunch. You never know what Daily Specials food trucks will have. Domo Taco generally  serves tacos, burritos and quesadillas with Japanese-influenced meats and sauces, but we read on twitter that the special of the day was tonkatsu with curry rice for...
