King Tut which used to be on 54th and Lex is the best by far!
I’m sure CitiCorp had them run out of there.

Anybody know where King Tut may have landed?
I do chicken and rice, but my wife is a vegetarian and they had the best falafel in town.

If anyone knows where they are hiding, let me know!

I tried the chicken/rice at 62 & Madison. Actually it was a chicken pita because they were out of Rice by the time I made it over (late-ish, 2 maybe?). Very uninteresting, a little dry- probably due to my timing.

BTW my theory on the white sauce is that it’s ranch dressing.

Ld – There’s one on 40th and 7th, that’s probably the one you’re thinking of. I haven’t had it in a few years but it was pretty good whenever I did have it. Mmm…street meat.

Let me preface this with saying that I know that everyone has a “favorite” halal cart guy. However when it comes to midtown lunch, the cart on 46th and third has the best chicken/lamb and rice around. For five dollars you get a large plate with a choice of two types of rice, chicken/lamb or both. In addition you can add a pita, fries or fallafel. All of this combined with a drink makes this cart amazing and I that is not including the taste of the food.

Give this cart a TRY!!!
