We just received an email from David S. about an accident at Mr. Khan’s Best cart on 45th St just east of 6th Ave.
Mr. Khan’s chapli kabob represents the Afghani school of NYC halal carts, one of several regional styles mapped in our Ultimate NYC Halal Cart Guide.
According to Enjoying The View…One Day At A Time, a car jumped the curb, hit a hydrant, then hit Mr. Khan’s cart.
Doing a little more research, Midtown Lunch reports that workers from the cart were seen wearing neck braces afterward, and are being treated by paramedics, but there’s no word on their condition.
Thanks for the tip David. If you have New York street food news to report, please email [email protected].
For all you Mr. Khan’s Best fans, here’s the last plate we had there. Now that’s authentic New York Street Food.
