New York Street Food

Times Square has always been off limits to food trucks, but four street food vendors have recently been given permission by the city to erect food stands in that culinary wasteland. The Times Square Alliance announced today that 72 proposals have been whittled down to 4 winners.  Click through to find out where you will be able to get some...

I keep hearing about Double Double Fridays at Feed Your Hole, and today I finally took the plunge. The only doubles I've had related to street food are Trinidadian doubles, which I had at the Trini-Paki Boys cart, but that has nothing to do with what Sean was serving at Feed Your Hole. The Double Double at Feed Your Hole is...

It looks like today is the calm before the storm.  It it beautiful and sunny, so get some great New York Street Food from the vendors on the right and the trucks below before Irene hits the fan. In case you haven't heard, just about all outdoor events have been cancelled this weekend, including the Afro Punk Festival, the Staten...

Open House Gallery in Nolita is presenting an Asian Night Market modeled after the Night Markets that are so popular throughout Southeast Asia.  There are over 300 Night Markets in Taiwan alone, not to mention hugely popular ones in Singapore, Hanoi, Beijing and many other Asian cities.

I've had a number of excellent falafel sandwiches from Taim Mobile, but never had one of their platters.  I figured with the rain, lines would be shorter, but it was only a little shorter than usual.  Today's Lunch is a falafel platter ($10) from Taim Mobile. Taim's falafel platter comes with six falafel balls, hummus, quinoa salad, Israeli salad and...

Souvlaki GR is back on 21st & 6th today, Gorilla Cheese has an insane new crab and bacon melt at 55th & 6th, and Wafels & Dinges has a new Island Hopper Wafel with dulce de...

If you read New York Street Food, you have probably heard about Cake & Shake, a cupcake and milkshake cart that had 2 carts, one in Washington Square Park and one outside the Metropolitan Museum of Art.  They closed the Wash Sq Park cart this year, but still have one outside the Met. Now a new cart has appeared on...

When I went to the Morris Truck last month for a NYSF First Look, the guy in front of me got one of their cold sandwiches that looked really good.  Morris may be known for their grilled cheese sandwiches, but the cold sandwiches seem a little more appropriate for hot summer days like this one. Today's Lunch is a feta,...

Yes, it's another gorgeous day, also known as National Waffle Day.

There are plenty of other great options around, as detailed below. As always, check the Mobile Munchies twitter feed...
