Comments on: Fish & Chips Elevates 100% Halal Food Cart Above Its “Healthy” Counterpart

I tried a combo of chicken+shrimp over salad.

- Both were already pre-prepared and sitting around, so they were a bit crunch but very slightly soggy.
- The cart guy chopped up the chicken on the grilltop (which looks like it hasn’t been cleaned in a while, which some equate to “flavor”). In moving the chopped fried chicken breast to the cart, a stowaway chunk of lamb came aboard (I’ll nominate this cart for next year since the lamb is in nice large chunks of the typical gyro meatloaf).
- The shrimp was okay. Nothing to make me go back though. It was your typical buffet-style butterflied fried shrimp.
- The only hot sauce he had was your ordinary hot sauce, so I slathered my plate in barbecue sauce when I got back to work.

If I worked on that block, I’d probably go back, but not worth the extra walk for fried food from a cart :)

went there today, had to wait 35 minutes for four orders. Easily worth 5 dollars and what you’d expect for that price. Hungover and really hits the spot.

Lads and Ladies— I am also hesitant about fish, especially shrimp from a cart…. And I’ll eat chicken feet at Dim Sum! But shrimp, in the summer, from a cart…. I dunno…

My secret cart desire is someplace that will serve Balut. I have never ever had it!

I went last week and specifically asked for the green sauce – one guy looked over at the other guy and they just laughed – ouch!

I agree w/Zach they will put together a plate for you however you like and not break the bank.

Mmm, eat here 1-2 times a week. Love the fish option.

The eggplant is definately a nice add-on to the falafel platter, as is a free dab of hummus.

My only gripe: they LOAD on the white sauce, and I have to beg for a light coating if I don’t want my platter overwhelmed by the creamy goodness.
