FOOD TRUCK BOOM HITS WASHINGTON DC

The Washington Post had a bunch of stories today on the food truck scene there, including a writer who followed 3 different food trucks for a day, ratings of the trucks, where to find them, and a video with people talking about why they love the food trucks. The Washington City Paper also recently reported on the deep-pocketed opposition from...

TODAY’S LUNCH: CAMPECHANO BURRITO FROM PATY’S TACO TRUCK

It's not often that I'm on the Upper East Side, but I had to be there around lunchtime, and will have to be there again next week.  I've heard decent things about Paty's Taco Truck - which parks on Lexington Ave just north of 86th St, right outside the 4,5,6 subway station.  This is the first chance I've had...

KOREAN STREET FOOD BASICS (VIDEO)

Koreataste recently posted a video by Simon and Martina of Eat Your Kimchi.  It's less than 5 minutes, but includes a lot about the basics of Korean street food. You even get to hear them say the names of each dish that's included, so you can learn how to pronounce it. http://www.youtube.com/v/GzjajL1lOh0&hl=en_US&feature=player_embedded&version=3

TODAY’S LUNCH: CURRY CHICKEN FROM THE DESI TRUCK

After the Vendy Awards last weekend, I wanted something special for lunch.  I was thinking of trying the Calcutta Royal Biryani from the Desi Truck on the SE corner of 27th St & 5th Ave, but they didn't have it today.  I've already had their chicken onda kati roll (loved it), aloo masala kati roll (liked it), and chicken...

FOOD TRUCK LOT (RE)OPENING IN SANTA MONICA

For those NYSF readers who have been around a while, you may recall a post we did in early January about a parking lot in Santa Monica, CA (above) where the owner was trying to set up a place for food trucks to park and serve without any hassles.  Well, that didn't last long, as it was closed down...

BEST OF TODAY’S LUNCH: POACHED TILAPIA WITH OLIVE OIL & HERBS FROM BISTRO TRUCK

With the atrocious weather today, we're going to re-print an older Today's Lunch review.  This was one of our favorite lunches from Vendy Award finalist Bistro Truck that we had back in April.  They don't have the poached tilapia every day, so keep an eye out for it when you see it as their Daily Special. I happened to be...
