New York Street Food

Back in NYC!  I'm swamped with work, but happy to be here. Today is the 1st day for the new Urban Lobster Shack On Wheels, and there are plenty of other choices out there too.  It's the last Columbia Food Pod of the semester with Go Burger, Desi Food Truck, Mexico Blvd and Feed Your Hole. Tonight is Choice Streets at...

And then there were three... While were traveling back from Florida yesterday, a new lobster truck was announced on Midtown Lunch, and we received a press release this morning from them in our inbox. The Urban Lobster Shack, a tiny storefront with locations in the basement of 805 Third Ave (bet 49-50 St) and at 15 Stone St (bet Bdwy &...

We're heading down to Florida tonight to visit some relatives over a long weekend.  Gotta see 'em while they're still around. We expect to be incommunicado most of the weekend, so if you email or DM us, don't expect a quick response. Don't know if it will be possible, but if we can get to any South Florida food trucks, we...

One of the more fun things to do at the Tribeca Film Festival is the Drive-In.  Not only is it free, but watching a classic movie outdoors by the water is just a great time.  I haven't been to one in a number of years, but did see Grease and another film I can't recall the following year. With the...

Cupcake Crew has been around the streets of NYC since late 2010, and are easy to spot with their distinctive black and pink truck.  But the nicest looking truck won't last if the food being served is not up to snuff, and Cupcake Crew delivers on that front.  They were Best Dessert Finalists at the 2011 Vendy Awards, and...

Taking place one Sunday a month from April through October, this month's inaugural bazaar features five of New York's best food trucks. Click through for which trucks will be there, as...

If you read our Mobile Munchies post this morning, you will have known that Our Heros was making a rare foray into midtown from their usual spot in the Financial District.  Looks like it might not be so rare. We stopped by the truck, which was parked on the NW corner of 51st St & Park Ave (caddy corner from...

Yesterday we told you about what we thought was a new food truck from the sibling team behind the Bian Dang and Fishing Shrimp trucks. Last night we ventured out to 4th Ave & President St in Brooklyn to see for ourselves, and found a brand new food cart.  The way things are going in NYC with food trucks these...

Today is the 10th Anniversary of The King of Falafel & Shawarma's Vendy-Award Winning cart in Astoria.  If you don't get out of Manhattan much, it's on Broadway & 30st St in Astoria, Queens, only 1 block from the Broadway stop on the N train.  Easy peasy. There are many other options on this beautiful day from the vendors on...
