Damn, so I’m not alone in thinking that imposter halal cart is better than the real one. Their chicken has a lot more flavor.

I went to the Imposter cart Thursday after reading the article, and not only was it nothing special but I actually felt quite sick for the rest of the day. Did anyone else have a similar experience?

I’ve only ever gone to Little Morocco for dinner and they’ve never given me extras, but I still like it.

My office is moving to that neighborhood later this summer, so I’ll finally, *finally* get to try it for lunch. BTW, how is their kofta kebab? When I try to order that at night, they’re always out.

It would be nice if the next SMP had a score to see how close each were.

After reading this post, I went to Kwik for the first time, and I have to say, while the meat was great, it was extremely oily. I couldn’t finish it and had to drink 2 sodas to try to wash the oiliness down.

In any case, good work.

Fair enough. You’re probably right. I’m just bummed that he knew he had to bring his A game and instead of a real garbage plate he just upped the quantities of chicken and lamb which probably weren’t recognized by the judges.

I don’t think it’s fair for Kopper to go. Does the cart already knows you are part of ML? It’s Little Morroco’s fault if they drop the ball at ANY given time. Zach wants fairness to all Midtown Lunchers and customers.

How would you feel if you’re new to the site, saw this huge plate with tons of meat and fixins at SMP4, go to the cart AFTER SEEING THAT and end up getting less – MUCH less than expected? You’ve ruined ML’s credibility then.

If Little Morroco wants to win, then they know they have to do. Bring their A game at ALL TIMES to everybody!!

When I first started going, I got extras in the evening. I really enjoyed it for dinner!!
Not anymore though as I haven’t seen any beans or fries at night so I don’t bother going there at night. I might go during late lunch another time though. I’ve only eaten it for lunch like once. Other times were mainly dinner. Haha.

HAHAHA. I like how Little Morocco wasn’t sure who would be the SMP3 pickup but tossed in a lot of meat anyway WITHOUT the extras hoping for the best.

I don’t like the fact that his combo is so inconsistent then. A regular customer wouldn’t get tons of meat and crap-shoot on the extras too. That’s why it isn’t even dinner worthy to me anymore. Oh well. Hope they hold their ground during the lunch shift though!

He told me someone had come by asking for 2 combo platters that day, and asking if he knew Zach. He asked me if that could have been the SMP3 pickup. I said I had no idea but it certainly could have been. I asked him if he had put together 2 good plates and he said he did, and gave them a lot of chicken and lamb. Oh well, he should have thrown in the fixins and that might have got him out of last place. It doesn’t sound as if he had a shot for the title, though, reading the report. As someone else said, there is always next year.
