CALIFORNIA, HERE WE COME!

There is no Today's Lunch post because we are currently traveling to Los Angeles - another great street food city. We will be checking out as many L.A. food trucks as possible this week, and will report our findings to you beginning tomorrow.

FUJIANESE STREET FOOD IN NYC

Wen, from the Writing Is My Therapy blog, went back to her roots as a Fujianese girl and checked out Rong Xin at 88 East Broadway in (New York's) Chinatown. Although Rong Xin is not actually a street vendor, they cook Fujianese street food, and Wen's descriptions are very evocative. According to Wen, the Fujian style of cooking is focused on...

TODAY’S LUNCH: WHITING SANDWICH FROM KIM’S AUNT KITCHEN

The recent NYSF Guest Post from Charlotte of Simonseeks.com entitled "An English Girl's Take On The Best NYC Mobile Eats" gave me a hankering for fried fish from Kim's Aunt Kitchen.
