New York Street Food

As we told you last week, a new food cart named Hyderabad popped up recently that splits its time between midtown and the Financial District. On the sign right next to the cart's name is Goat Kacchi Biryani, one of their specialties that we tried last week, but when we were waiting for our lunch, the woman in the cart...

Another beautiful day. Perfect for enjoying great New York Street Food from the vendors on the right and the trucks below. Taïm Mobile is introducing another new falafel flavor that we told you about last week, sun-dried tomato pesto falafel. Sounds good. As always, make sure to check the Mobile Munchies twitter feed before heading out, in case anyone had to move at...

When we were on Broadway in Soho on Saturday, filming with a French TV crew for a documentary about food trucks. We saw a new truck we had not seen before. It was called Brooklyn Popcorn Co. With the filming, we didn't have time to do more than take a couple of pictures and ask a few questions. At the time,...

One of our favorite events last year was Choice Streets, the food truck version of Choice Eats, put on by the good folks at the Village Voice. Not only were there great food trucks, but it was held on the USS Intrepid. We got a tour of the Concorde, sat in a flight simulator, and received a tour of the...

It was a cold and wet day yesterday (like today) and the Mac Truck was only 2 blocks from my office, on 55th & Broadway. We can't think of a better way to warm our insides on this bone-chilling day than with a Buffalo Chicken Mac and Cheese. Dom has made a few minor changes to the menu. Now he...

It may be snowing out, but many of the great New York Street Food trucks and carts are out today. That means short lines for the most popular food trucks, like Cinnamon Snail. It also means FREE vegetable soup from Comme Ci Comme Ca for those who make it to their truck. If you don't want to wait in the...

The Calexico Empire is expanding yet again, and now a new Calexico Manhattan Restaurant! The Vendley Brothers, who won the 2008 Vendy Cup for their great Calexico Carne Asada food carts, are opening an outpost on the Lower East Side. If you are not familiar with Calexico, what are you waiting for! They had 2 food carts in Soho for a long time,...

Had your Pulled Pork Salad today? Well, it seems like a lot of places are moving to a mix & match menu, where you choose your protein, toppings, sauce and method of delivery. There are positives and negatives to doing it this way for the vendor, but for the customer, we can only see positives. What can be better than...

Very light snow so far. Not nearly enough to keep us away from enjoying great New York Street Food today - and you can too! As always, make sure to check the Mobile Munchies twitter feed before heading out, in case anyone had to move at the last minute, or closed up earlier than usual because of the weather. Kimchi Taco ‏Sup SoHo? We'll...

Last week we wrote about NYC Council Speaker Christine Quinn saying the bill to lower street vendor fines would receive a vote on Wednesday (3/6) at City Hall. That was yesterday, and the City Council did pass a bill that reduces Street Vendor Fines for licensed street dealers from $1,000 to $500. Vendors without licenses can still be fined up to...
