New York Street Food

The Wafels & Dinges truck featured bbq pulled pork on a wafel some time ago as a special item, then took it off the menu for a while.  This dish has now re-appeared as a regular menu item, and I had to try it.  I love bbq and I love wafels.  What could be better? Today's Lunch is the bbq...

130 new tweets. Hope everyone had a great holiday weekend.  It's a hot one out there...but it must be even hotter in the trucks.  If a street food vendor is working today, give them your support.  Most of us can take lunch back to an air-conditioned office. As always, check our pink Moblie Munchies twitter feed before heading out.  The food...

The latest food truck to open a brick-and-mortar establishment is one of our favorites, The Taco Truck.  Even though the truck is in New Jersey, we have taken the PATH train to Hoboken to enjoy their tacos. The store is only 2 blocks from the PATH station in Hoboken, and it's no different than going to Brooklyn or Queens from...

I happened to be near Kabab Express on 55th St just east of 6th Ave around lunchtime today.  I haven't tried their lamb or beef kababs yet, but their chicken kabab was pretty good, as was their koobideh kabab.  Unfortunately, it takes around 15 minutes to grill the kababs from scratch, and I didn't have a lot of time,...

People seem to really enjoy New York Street Food Featured Vendor Profiles, the latest of which is our interview with O'Neill Reid of the Jamaican Dutchy. Along the same lines, Serious Eats had an interview with Alex Chu of the Dim Sum Truck in L.A.  In addition to some delectable photos, you get a good idea of what a day...

After opening a storefront on the Lower East Side last January and keeping their truck garaged except for special events, the Dessert Truck is hitting the pavement again this summer and into the fall. Jerome sent out this message on facebook and twitter: "The truck will be back on the street thru the end of Oct 2010. We just got...

Welcome to the 2nd installment of our new Thursday lunch feature: Wall Street Winners.  Our special downtown guest reviewer, FiDi Mama of the Money Grub blog, writes about one food truck or cart in the  downtown area each week for NYSF readers. FiDi Mama's goal is "seeking budget food nirvana on Wall Street, one aluminum box at a time".  She...

Yes, it's another gorgeous day outside today.  Perfect for enjoying some great street food from the vendors on the right and the trucks below.  Unfortunately, the Cinnamon Snail was run into by a car and will be off the road for a little while (sorry Adam) and Calexico is having "technical difficulties" - but the Schnitz guys have veal...
