TODAY’S LUNCH: HONORARY STREET FOOD FROM SAUSAGE INC.

I was walking up University Place from 12th St to Union Square when I saw a new storefront called Sausage Inc at #106 (12-13 St).  If you know me, you know how much I love sausage, wurst, or and any kind of meat in tube form (as Anthony Bourdain so eloquently puts it).  Definitely had to stop in to...

GAY MARRIAGE IS SPREADING TO STRAIGHTS AT THE BIG GAY ICE CREAM TRUCK

After ordering what looks like a Bea Arthur (crushed 'Nilla wafers) from the Big Gay Ice Cream Truck, this guy knelt down and proposed to his girlfriend right outside the truck window. From the look on her face, and the fact that he's putting a ring on her finger, I guess she said yes! You don't have to be gay to...

EVERYBODY LIKES FREE: ICE POPS FROM SUNGEVITY

The California-based solar power company Sungevity is currently in NYC spreading the word about solar power.  How are they doing that?  By giving away free ice pops!

TODAY’S LUNCH: TACOS FROM DOS TOROS

I've been regularly walking past a new taqueria on Carmine St called Dos Toros on my way home from the West 4th St Station.  Dos Toros seats about 20, which is on the larger side for our Honorary Street Food category, but they serve tacos, burritos and quesadillas, which is the right cuisine.  I understand this is the second...

SEATTLE PASSES FOOD TRUCK LAW. POSSIBLE BLUEPRINT FOR NYC?

  Last week the Seattle City Council voted unanimously to allow food trucks in public spaces instead of limiting them to private lots.  Some of the terms seem like they could serve as a blueprint for New York City to come to terms with the explosion of food trucks. As part of the Seattle rules, vendors must set up more than...
