New York Street Food

It's a beautiful, sunny day to enjoy some great New York Street Food from the vendors on the right and the trucks below. Even food truck lots can have trouble.  The new Long Island City lot is closed due to a TV shoot blocking the entrance.  Eddie's Pizza parked nearby, but Cupcake Stop relocated to Brooklyn. As always, make sure to...

Doug from the Big Gay Ice Cream Truck posted a blog entry over the weekend, giving us an update on their new store, the Big Gay Ice Cream Shop, that should be opening in mid-to-late August.

  As I mentioned Friday, Village Pourhouse, a bar with 4 locations in the New York metro area, just came out with a food truck last week.  They don't serve drinks (damn!), but they do serve a menu of bar food such as sliders, wings, chili cheese dogs, fries and milkshakes. When I was at the truck Friday, it was what...

The big news today is the return of Frites 'N' Meats either Friday or next Monday.  It will be great to have them back on the NYC streets.

The question is "Do you feel lucky"?  Even if you don't win, you still get...

I received a call over the weekend from Hiassam of Frites 'N' Meats.  He told me the new truck was just about ready, and they were having it "wrapped" today or tomorrow with a new design. But when exactly will they be back on the New York streets serving those delicious burgers and fries? Hiassam told me they will be back...

I got out of the office early today and on the way home, I ran across a new food truck on Hudson & King - The Village Pourhouse.  Yes, the same Village Pourhouse with 3 bars in NYC and 1 in Hoboken. I've heard of food trucks opening restaurants and restaurants opening food trucks, but this is the first time...

I didn't have much time today, so I headed nearby to Tacos Y Quesadillas Mexico on 9th Ave between 58th & 59th St.  They are a cart serving solid Mexican food.  I haven't had a bad meal there yet, although lunch can sometimes get a little messy.  They are also well-priced. For Today's Lunch, I ordered a pollo milanese torta,...
