New York Street Food

Some of the 2011 Vendy Rookies are starting to celebrate their 1st Birthdays.  Next thing you know, they'll be in college. Comme Ci, Comme Ça is celebrating their 1st Anniversary at 52nd St & Park Ave today, and we told you about Korilla BBQ's 1st Anniversary Bash this Friday night at the Hiro Ballroom.  Wonder if they'll have a cake like...

Last night Korilla BBQ tweeted, "Thanks to @Base_NYC, Korilla will be celebrating its first birthday at Hiro Ballroom this Friday."  Oh, our children grow up so fast these days! We remember the Korilla BBQ Launch Party last October at KumGangSan, and it was a lot of fun.  At the time, there were no Korean BBQ trucks in NYC, and the...

Another day, another complaint (and threat) for street food vendors - but this one makes even less sense than usual. As DNAinfo reports, cabbies around Columbus Circle are complaining about food trucks and carts crowding taxi stands, costing them fares from shoppers exiting The Shops At Columbus Circle.  And City Councilwoman Gale Brewer is listening to their complaints. "Taxi drivers have...

Another beautiful day for Madison Square Eats, and it was crowded as hell! I was going to get a burger from Bar Suzette, but as I was approaching the end of the line, the guy behind the counter shouted out that it would be at least a 20 minute wait for a cheeseburger.  Time to find another place for lunch. The...

Welcome back if you had the day off yesterday. It's a beautiful day to enjoy great New York Street Food from the vendors on the right and the trucks below. The police are out in full force around Park Ave.  Gorilla Cheese, Joyride, Feed Your Hole and Frying Dutrchmen have all been kicked out of their spots.  See below for...

First Cake & Shake had to deal with impostor carts.  Now they have to deal with other vendors exploiting the "veteran loophole" to conduct business in front of the Metropolitan Museum of Art. As mentioned in Gothamist, A 19th century law permits veterans to sell in areas where others are not allowed to.  Cake & Shake, who reportedly are paying...

Some of the vendors are taking off for Columbus Day, but the trucks below are working.  Should be a nice day out for some great New York Street Food. As always, for the most up to date information, check the Mobile Munchies twitter feed before heading out. Mexicue Pancho is at Church and Lispenard until 3pm.

Lots of great food events this weekend...BUT don't forget about the Hell's Kitchen Flea Market Food Truck Bazaar on Sunday from 11am-5pm.  It is the last one of the year. There will be 5 food trucks at the bazaar - Rickshaw Dumplings, Kimchi Taco Truck, Gorilla Cheese, Kelvin Natural Slush and Two Pitas In A Pod.  The event takes place...

It's been a while since I've been to Bistro Truck, one of my favorite food trucks and a 2010 Vendy Award Finalist. What sent me down to 'Da Nest (as Yassir calls his spot on 5th ave & 16th St) was the tweet yesterday with the Daily Specials.  In this case it said "grilled steak with creamy mushroom sauce". That sounded...

What a beautiful day! Make sure you get out and enjoy great New York Street Food from the vendors on the right and the trucks below. As always, make sure to check our Mobile Munchies twitter feed before heading out, in case anyone had to move at the last minute. Mexicue Pancho is at the @licfoodtrucklot...lefty is back at 18th and...
