New York Street Food

It looks like the original NYC cupcake truck (and 2009 Vendy Award finalist in the Dessert category) Cupcake Stop, will be returning to the NYC street very soon. Just this morning, Cupcake Stop tweeted "Yes we are really coming back and thank you to all of our fans and loyal customers who have supported us RT @Bklyntravel: Is @CupcakeStop really...

In case you aren't aware, individual members of the NYC Food Trucks Association are donating up to 10% of their sales today to help their compatriots at Frites 'N' Meats rebuild their truck after the terrible accident earlier this week.  The vendors donating include Schnitzel & Things, Rickshaw Dumplings, Eddie's Pizza, Bistro Truck, Kelvin Slush, Taim Mobile, Korilla BBQ,...

The recent free food truck promotion from Air France was good, but this may be the apex of free food truck promotions. Grub Street reports that a group called the Korean Food Foundation, which is sponsored by the South Korean–government, will be teaming up with 9 Korean restaurants to operate a free food truck for 5 weeks! The free promotion starts...

I received a call last night from Hiassam of Frites ‘N’ Meats.  He was the one who tweeted “does anyone know where they took my brothers” after their accident on the West Side Highway on Monday. There are a few things Hiassam wants to get out there, and asked me to relate these to everyone. First, Hiassam would like everyone to...

Wow, it's been a crazy day! Today the NY Post wrote about the NYSF Walking Tour that was announced on Monday, and we've been bombarded by interview requests all day.  People really seem to like the idea. So far today, we have done interviews with WCBS (880AM) and WINS (1010AM), and set up interviews for next week with Valerie's New York...

Late last year, there was a new truck in the Flatiron area called the Cevap Truck.  At that time, the guys in the Cevap (pronounced “che-vop”) Truck told me they were originally from Bosnia, had opened a restaurant in Astoria named Ukus, and started this truck last December, when it was pretty f'ing cold out.  They disappeared a little...

It's been a crazy morning with the NY Post article about the New York Street Food Walking Tour, WCBS Radio just contacted me for an interview, and I'm going to be on Valerie's New York on WOR AM again next week talking about all the new food trucks and some of my old favorites.  When it rains, it pours...

We previously mentioned that when we ran into 3D from Korilla BBQ at Choice Eats, he told us they would have a 2nd truck on the street by the end of April.  Judging from the pictures they tweeted last night, things are moving along right on schedule. Good thing, because we tried to stop by Korilla BBQ for lunch last...

When I saw that Taïm Mobile had sabich for their special this week, I wanted to check it out.  I had seen sabich (suh-beech) on menus of other falafel places and was not too familiar with it, but once I did a little research...I had to try one.  Once I saw hard-boiled egg, that was it!  I'm no Cool...

Sweet Mini Cakes, also on the south side of Canal St, just west of Mulberry St. Well, at least the hard rain has stopped, and most of the vendors are out on the street serving today.  You can enjoy some great New York Street Food from the vendors on the right and the trucks below. We had some technical difficulties with...
