It's the biggest Latin street party in the world, and a street food paradise.  Hundreds of food vendors lined the streets with pinchos, arepas, chorizos and countless other Latin foods.  Cuban, Puerto Rican, Mexican, Dominican, Haitian, Colombian, Brazilian, Peruvian, Argentinean, Uruguayan—literally every possible Latin cuisine is represented. This year, it was on March 14th. The following was reported by Daniel...

It's a rainy Monday, but that didn't stop people from schnitzing it up at the new Monday location for the Schnitzel & Things truck, Broadway & 57th St.   Last Monday was their first stop in this new location, and I couldn't be happier.  I literally did not have to cross the street to get Today's Lunch. Last week I had...

Earlier this week, we asked if empanadas can become the next tacos, as Leo Suarez is trying to accomplish.  In that vein, here's our personal recipe for ground beef and lime empanadas.  Our recipe uses Pillsbury crescent rolls as the dough, but if you're hard-core, feel free to make your own dough.  We don't have a lot of room...

Today's Lunch is stuffed shells from Jianetto's Pizza & Catering truck on 47th St between Park and Madison Ave.  They also have a truck downtown at Wall St and Front St.  I've heard some good things about Jianetto's, and based on that, put them on the NYSF Mobile Munchies twitter feed.  Today it was time to try them out.

In our Mobile Munchies post for March 18th, we told you about how you could win one of four Think Pad Edge’s by visiting Cupcake Stop that day. Well, Lev obviously got one for himself, and all he had to do was talk about how useful the ThinkPad Edge is for his daily business, Cupcake Stop.  Check out the video...

For Today's Lunch, I tried the Indian Fast Food cart on the south side of 53rd St between Park and Lexington Ave.  The cart was run by an Indian couple, and the woman told me they have been serving from this cart for 8 years.  They were obviously popular among the Indian workers in the area, as several groups...
