They carry the same distinctive yellow bags. I was just going to add the fact about the 7th & 53rd cart too. They carry the same distinctive yellow bags.

What the hell, I am so confused. So the one with halalguys.com is the real one? That means I went to the fake one across the street during the day...

There are no more great secrets in new york. Since it's out of the bag--one of the few carts that does not serve chicken with pieces of bones and cartilage or whatever the chewy part is. God bless them. Stop telling everyone about the right cart. There are no more great secrets in new york.

I am not as big of a street meat expert as some of y'all, but it tastes pretty good as I type this. 1:00pm on a Thursday and there was no line.

The Falafel and Shawarma King Cart near Broadway and the N train station in Astoria is amazing. I often get two items whenever I am there. They offer a lot of extras like lamb shawarma, kefta( a Middle Eastern meatball), falafels, and shish kebabs but their main things are the Chicken and Rice plate and their Chicken wrap(which is really on gyro bread). Amazing food. I actually think the best chicken and rice cart is not even in Manhattan, its a cart in Astoria that makes the best plate of Chicken and Rice in NYC.
