A FEW NEW LUNCH OPTIONS AT THE COLUMBUS CIRCLE HOLIDAY MARKET

The Columbus Circle Holiday Market opened yesterday, giving us some new lunch options for a few weeks. I was disappointed to see that my favorite vendor from last year Pies -N- Thighs didn't return - but there are still a few good-looking choices, even though the person doing the booking quite obviously screwed up in one respect. Two  of the five...

ANOTHER TINY FOOD TRUCK HITS THE STREETS

A couple of weeks ago, we told you about the world's smallest food truck that sold doner kebabs from a converted Smart car in Austin. We may have found the world's 2nd smallest food truck in Chicago. Jay Sebastian and his wife, Carrie Clark, sell British pasties and their company is called Bridgeport Pasties. (We understand Bridgeport is a neighborhood...

CHICKEN TINGA BURRITO FROM EL IDOLO TRUCK

I had to pick up dinner last night on the way home, and the El Idolo taco truck was parked on 6th Ave just north of West 4th St. They don't tweet their locations, but are often in this spot on evenings and weekends on the east side of 6th Ave, a block up from the basketball courts by...

CLEVELAND AHEAD OF NYC ON THE FOOD TRUCK FRONT

Being a lifelong New Yorker, I truly believe living here is better than any other place on Earth - but as a food truck lover, Cleveland just surpassed New York. Over the past six months, Cleveland city leaders have been speaking with food truck operators, street vendors and restaurants to come up with the law, which goes into effect immediately. After...

TODAY’S LUNCH: MEATBALL/RICOTTA & SAUSAGE/PEPPER SLICES FROM VALDUCCI’S

We first ran across Valducci's Original Pizza a couple of days after they opened last May.  At the time, they were still working out the kinks in the oven, and didn't have any toppings on the pizza. What a difference six months make.  For Today's Lunch, I got a slice of meatball & ricotta pizza and a slice of sausage,...

CURRYWURST – YEA OR NAY?

The Boston Globe had an article about the recent popularity of currywurst in Los Angeles. (Yeah, I'm wondering why the Boston Globe is writing about restaurants in L.A. too.)  There are now 2 places to get currywurst in L.A., one in the Fairfax district and one in Silverlake. We know currywurst is the national street food of Germany, but how...
