New York Street Food

As I was heading to work this morning, I saw a food truck parked at Hudson & King that I had not seen before called Marrakech Chefs. Even though Hudson & King has become food truck central these days, I live around there and take the 1 train from Houston St to Columbus Circle, which is a food truck wasteland. The...

We were not able to attend the Zagat Food Truck Frenzy yesterday, but Jonathan from The Food Randomist offered to cover the event as a Guest Writer for New York Street Food.  Jonathan recently sent us his initial observations on the Gorilla Cheese NYC truck.  We liked his observations and writing, and asked if he would like to cover...

The Go Burger truck recently got back on the street after taking the winter off, and we caught up to it on Friday.  The truck doesn't have a set schedule or regular parking spots yet, but they seem to be concentrating on the West 50's. Last year I tried a delicious Kobe dog,which was topped with spicy mustard, apple cole...

If you're not going to the Zagat Food Truck Frenzy, there are still plenty of options for great New York Street Food. The Frying Dutchmen are on the street today, as is the Go Burger truck, and the new Bongo Bros Cuban food truck.  Only Bongo Bros have tweeted their location so far today, so check our Mobile Munchies twitter...

Sweetery NYC is going to be giving away about 3,000(!)

We received a late Friday afternoon email that should be of interest to you - that is if you like free Mexican food infused with 100% blue agave tequila! The Camarena Taco Truck will be hitting NYC tonight, and it will be around through May 30th serving tacos and free Mexican food infused with Camarena's Reposado and Silver tequilas. The Camarena...

If you enjoy going to food events on the weekend, this should be a great one.  Not only is the weather expected to be nice, but there are some killer food gatherings going on in the NYC area. Sunday, May 22, is the Big Kahuna for food truck lovers - the Food Truck Rally at Grand Army Plaza in Brooklyn,...

We got a frantic email yesterday from Tim, a NYSF reader.  He read our review of the wonderful fried chicken at Jerk Pan on the SE corner of 48th St & Park Ave, and headed over to get some. His email said: "It's not there!  My partner just went there.  Are they still in business?" We contacted Andrew from the Jerk...

  I’ve really enjoyed the vendors at Madison Square Eats, and I was thrilled when Calexico Carne Asada announced they were opening a new cart there.  It’s fairly tough for me to get to Soho for lunch. The 2008 Vendy Award Winner has been expanding their empire on a regular basis, and since this was a new location, I decided to...

Today is the debut of the Frying Dutchman, who said they will be around Flatiron today.  You can follow them on twitter here. Keep an eye out for the new (2nd) Korilla BBQ truck.  Don't forget to include #greatfoodtruckrace in any tweet with @korillabbq. Lots of trucks being chased away by the police today, especially from 55th & 6th, so make...
