TODAY’S LUNCH: ASIAN CHICKEN BURGER FROM ROYAL GRILL

With it being the slow season for food trucks, I've been trying some of the more promising new food carts around town.  Yesterday the smell from Aamir drew me in for chicken tikka on West 46th St. Today, the signs on the Royal Grill cart on West 44th St between 6th & 7th Ave. caught my eye.  Did you know...

WASHINGTON DC CRACKING DOWN ON FOOD TRUCKS USING AN OLD LAW. SOUND FAMILIAR?

We heard from a colleague in Washington DC about a new wave of enforcement against food trucks being planned for today.  And just like in New York, their weapon of choice is an old law that was not meant for the new breed of food trucks.

TODAY’S LUNCH: CHICKEN TIKKA OVER BASMATI RICE FROM AAMIR

  West 46th St between 5th & 6th Ave regularly has one or two food trucks parked towards the 6th Ave end.  Today Korilla is there, and I passed the Aamir cart on the way to Korilla.  It smelled so good, I changed my plans in mid-block, and I've had Korilla plenty of times.  Always looking for something new to...

COOLHAUS NOW HAS A BEAST OF A SAMMIE

We've often relied on Burger Beast for info on the latest and greatest burger-related food trucks in Miami and South Florida.  They clued us in on the Grill Master Cafe, Mamita Linda and Ms. Cheezious, among others. So it was natural when Coolhaus expanded to Miami, they would hook up with Burger Beast, a local legend.  Coolhaus and BB teamed...

TODAY’S LUNCH: SPICY BEEF SOUP & BBQ NACHOS FROM KIMCHI TACO TRUCK

I saw that Kimchi Taco Truck had a new winter special that sounded pretty good - Spicy Beef Soup.  I decided to get the soup as a side dish so that I could try another side dish too.  I've previously enjoyed their kimchi arancini (rice balls), and this time I wanted to try the BBQ Nachos.
