New York Street Food

Between going to sleep last night and waking up this morning, this week's vendors in the MasterCard Priceless NY promotion were announced.  How about 5,000 FREE lunches and desserts from these 10 food trucks! Red Hook Lobster Pound, Schnitzel & Things, Bistro Truck, Morris Grilled Cheese, Palenque, Crisp Falafel and Go Burger will be giving away lunches; Wafels & Dinges...

Thanks to Adam from The Cinnamon Snail who alerted us to the following article in NJ.com. From NJ.com: A new law in Jersey City regulating food trucks has received initial approval from the City Council - and restaurant owners are still unhappy. The new regulations, which were set for approval in May but scuttled after food-truck operators and other itinerant vendors...

Yesterday was the last day of the year for Bistro Truck, so I headed up to the Columbia Food Pod to get one last meal to hold me until 2012.  (Bistro Truck will be part of this week's MasterCard free lunch giveaway on Thursday, but with a limited menu.) I spoke with Yassir for a while yesterday about his plans,...

On my way to the 1 train this morning, I did a double-take.  Across Hudson St was a covered wagon giving out free coffee. They were promoting the new Western series on AMC called Hell On Wheels that premieres this Sun, Nov 6th.  The tagline for the series is "Blood Will Be Spilled. Lives Will Be Lost. Men Will Be...

We've been expecting to see the Milk Truck on the street for a while now, and yesterday it finally appeared. The Milk Truck was operating a stand at Brooklyn Flea, and has been at many other food events around the city.  Despite their name, Milk Truck has only had an operating truck since Fashion Night Out in September, and now...

Click through for a message from Kim, where to order the book, and if you can't wait, where Kim will be signing the book this week. Hi! My name is...

When the Red Hook Lobster Pound tweeted on Friday about having lobster macaroni and cheese, I said to myself "self, you gotta try that!" There was a line of about 6 people in front of me, which moved at a good clip, but then another 8 or so came up behind me.  Busy day for Big Red on Friday, and...

Getting back to autumn, there's another Columbia Food Pod today on Amsterdam Ave from 116th-120th St, with 4 of the top food trucks there.  It's the last official day for Bistro Truck for a while (although we hear they may be part of a free lunch promotion on Thursday, with a limited menu). There are plenty of other great options...

We recently heard about the Fishing Shrimp Truck from the Ditmas Park Blog, and tracked them down on our sonar this weekend.  From what we hear, they have been getting their sea legs in Brooklyn over the past 10 days or so. We haven't had a chance to try them yet, but we can't wait.  The truck has mainly fried...
