New York Street Food

There was pretty good food truck variety in Ashevile at the one lot where food trucks were allowed to sell. In the two days we were there, we saw Korean/Mexican fusion, Vietnamese, falafel, grilled cheese and Venezuelan cuisine. At Papear Venezuelan Food, they serve arepas and empanadas with a wide choice of fillings. We went with their recommendation, shredded beef...

Don't know why, but today we felt like having Beef Kebab Platter. The Toum food truck has only been serving their authentic Lebanese cuisine to New Yorkers since the middle of the summer, but they seem to be catching on in a big way. Maybe too big, judging by the crowd at the truck recently in midtown. There were about 18...

We are currently traveling, and will not be able to the Mobile Munchies post today. Everything will be back to normal tomorrow (Thursday).

Ever had Vietnamese Spring Rolls in Asheville? Well, there is something Asheville, NC has that NYC doesn't have (besides mountains) - a Vietnamese food truck. NYC has plenty of Korean, Thai, Chinese and Indian food trucks, but not Vietnamese. Oh yeah, there is the Banh Mi Cart in the Financial District, but no Vietnamese food trucks. Pho Ya Belly has...

So, we're in Asheville, NC visiting family for a few days, which gave us an opportunity to check out the food truck scene here. Every locale has their own push and pull between brick-and-mortar, food trucks, and local government. In NYC, it's basically a free-for-all. In Asheville, food trucks are confined to one parking lot in town (away from the restaurants),...

There's a fairly new food truck in town that seems to be catching on called Taco Bite. We enjoyed our First Look last month, but since we've been eating and writing about tacos a lot lately, we decided to get a burrito on our second visit. There are plenty of choices for main fillings at Taco Bite. They have the...

The Columbia Food Pod is back today, with Domo Taco, Luke's Lobster and Rickshaw Dumplings. Luke's even cooked up some chowda for everyone. As always, check the Mobile Munchies twitter feed before heading out, in case anyone had to move at the last minute, there was a film shoot, or the police started chasing trucks away from their spots. Hibachi Heaven ‏We are on...

We've always been big seafood lovers, so when the Fishing Shrimp truck came out, we were ecstatic. There's nothing we love more than fried seafood (except maybe ice cream). After enjoying most of the items on the menu, Fishing Shrimp has recently unveiled a couple of new dishes to keep us coming back for more. A few weeks ago, they mentioned...

We always say YES to Pulled Pork Mac and Cheese, and right now the most brand-spanking new food truck in NYC is the Mac Truck. Yes, macaroni & cheese...but with lots of options! We were out of town when the Mac Truck opened, but on Friday we had a First Look. Thanks again to Amar from Food To Eat for...

We hear it's a beautiful day in NYC, but we're in Asheville, NC for a few days visiting family. As always, check the Mobile Munchies twitter feed before heading out, in case anyone had to move at the last minute, there was a film shoot, or the police started chasing trucks away from their spots. Kimchi Taco ‏Why hello October. You're looking mighty hungry. @WFCNewYork,...
