theres 2 over on 53rd and 6th at night, the famous one and then there's shendy's. to be honest, I have always liked shendy's stand better, but most will say the other is better. Plus you can't go wrong waiting for 5 minutes when the famous truck usually has atleast an hour wait in the late night, especially thurs fri sat

i totally agree! they have become too famous now and their food quality is not as good as it once was, shendy's is the way to go

Not sure of the exact location but its next to the main street train station. They got $1 chicken/lamb/beef kebab's cooked on a charcol grill. Theres about a stand on every corner but at those prices, you know its most likely not chicken ( squriel/ rat / cat /dog or any thing else you can think of).

Grease trucks are where it's at, they're even on wikipedia. My favorite is the Fat B*tch, cheese steak/chicken fingers/mozzerella sticks/french fries (I don't know what they call it now, but they changed the names cause someone's panties were in a bunch).
