New York Street Food

Wafels & Dinges told us about this great brunch in a few weeks at The Brooklyn Brewery. To help celebrate the release of Mary's Maple Porter, there will be a brunch at Brooklyn Brewery with unlimited Wafels & Dinges, platefuls of bacon, free flowing beer (Mary's Maple Porter and others), Mary's maple syrup - and as much coffee as you...

When you think of Jerum, street food is not the first (or even the 10th) thing that comes to mind. But the Travel Channel recently shone a spotlight on one of the highlights of street food in Jerum - fried dough with cheese in the middle.   What isn't better fried, especially cheese! The video can't be embedded, but you can click...

Boy, the things you find by just walking around our great city!  I headed over to the Park Ave food truck corridor yesterday for lunch, and ran across a new truck I had never seen before - Domo Taco. The guy in the truck told me they have been around for a little while, usually parking around Astor Place, but...

Several trucks will be at the Baruch University Winter Carnival on 25th St between Lex and 3rd Ave.  So far I see Red Hook Lobster, Gorilla Cheese, Wafels & Dinges and Frites 'N'...

Interesting article in The Brooklyn Bureau about the friction between street food vendors and brick-and-mortar restaurants in Bay Ridge. Javaid Syed, who owns franchises of 22 Burger King and Popeyes locations throughout the city, is complaining that two falafel carts nearby account for most of a 30% drop in revenues at one of his stores. Really? We find that pretty hard...

We've enjoyed most of the items on the Red Hook Lobster Truck menu, so we were really looking forward to one of the items we haven't tried yet - the Lobster BLT ($10). The lobster BLT comes on the same lightly-toasted, top-sliced bun they use for the lobster rolls.  In addition to a healthy dose of lobster mixed with apple...

Looks like a nice day for enjoying great New York Street Food from the vendors on the right and the trucks below.

CalexicoNYC Prince & Wooster is out doin their...

Street food is undergoing a renaissance in the US and other parts of the "Western world" such as Canada, Australia and the UK - but it is a long-established part of the local culture in many parts of Asia and Latin America. According to TheFoodPeople, street food is eaten by 2.5 billion people per day, and there are 20,000 street...

There are currently 3 grilled cheese trucks in New York City, but the very first one was Gorilla Cheese NYC.  They have such a great logo, King Kong holding the Empire State Building in one hand and a dripping grilled cheese sandwich in the other, that we made them the cover of our 2012 Calendar.  And their food is...
