Schnitzel & Things To Open Storefront on 3rd Ave
Not sure what it is about the holidays, but it seems like every year around this time there is always some kind of big opening or closing- and this year’s bombshell dropped over the weekend… The Schnitzel & Things Truck has signed a lease for the old Kushi Q space (on 3rd Ave. btw. 45+46th) where they plan to open a brick and mortar store in late February, early March. This is actually just the latest in what appears to be a new trend among food trucks. Last week the truck formerly known as NYC Cravings made their big jump to brick and mortar, opening Bian Dang in the new Food Gallery 32. And, of course, The Dessert Truck, Cupcake Stop, and Calexico have had their brick and mortar locations up and running for awhile.
The plan for the new location is to carry all your favorites from the truck, plus add veal to the menu as a permanent option. There were also be a few new side dishes, and tons of specials- some of which they’ve been tinkering with for the past few months on the truck. We’re also hearing rumors that for dessert they’ll be selling various goodies from the Treats Truck. As for Midtown West, and the rest of NYC’s schnitzel fans, don’t worry too much. The truck will continue to operate just like before.

With Hallo Berlin firmly dug in on the west side, this storefront will fortify the eastern flank. Between the roving armor division (schnitzel truck in Afrika Corp beige) and the light cavalry (soon to return Hallo Berlin cart) it is obvious a 2011 anschluss is in the works
Kosher Schnitzel Express and Djerden Burek had best watch out … blitzkrieg looms

When they start throwing rocks through Jewish deli windows, call me. Until then it’s just posturing.

Isn’t the Treats Truck also opening a brick-and-mortar store?

Very excited for this. But I can’t get behind eating a brownie/cookie for dessert. But its within walking distance so I really can’t complain. But I guess I just did. Or something. DAMMIT.

As a midtown east denizen, this is good news.

Just remembered that Schnitzel and Things will open a brick-and-mortar outlet. I’m glad I will soon not have to trek half-way across town to get a schnitzel – and maybe this time they won’t be sold out of chicken schnitzel!

Sweet! Around the corner from my job! We miss Kushi-Q so it will be nice to have another option on the block!
This will either be massively popular or explode in flames and be lost to history.
