New York Street Food

A new food truck hit the NYC streets last week, MUNCHIE MOBILE TRUCK, and we stopped by yesterday for a NYSF First Look. The Munchie Mobile Truck is owned and run by 3 NYU students, one of whom worked on two other food trucks that you know.   They have 1/3 lb burgers, half a dozen different grilled cheese sandwiches,...

We first saw the Rouge Tomate cart at last year's Taste of the Parks event, where the NYC Parks Dept were showing off some of the new vendors in various NYC parks.  The Rouge Tomate cart served a chilled white gazpacho soup made with cucumbers, grapes, almonds and whole yogurt pureed into a small, delicious taste of 3 or...

I walked by Worth Square earlier this week, and they were already getting things ready for Madison Square Eats, which starts Friday and runs until June 1st.

I felt like VIDALIA ONION RINGS and some meat. I'm not usually a big fan of turkey burgers, but I've already tried most of the items on the Go Burger menu, and sometimes you just have to take one for the team.  Turkey burgers that I've had in the past were generally on the bland side and often fairly dry. ...
