I’m pretty sure that this sign isn’t brand new, but thanks to Lunch’er Daniel for bringing it to our attention. Did you know that Kwik Gourmet (on 47th and Park) has cut prices by 50 cents on most of their items? (I think the chicken mini roll is the only one that has stayed the [...]

Reports poured in from Midtown Lunch’ers trying the Kwik Meal pasta cart for the first time today (on 45th and 6th), and despite early concern that Muhammed wouldn’t be able to pull off pasta from a cart- the reviews seem largely positive!

A couple of exciting tidbits from the world of Midtown street vending this morning. First up, I just got word that Kwik Meal’s Muhammed Rahman will open his new pasta cart today. It will be parked next to the OG Kwik Meal cart on 45th and 6th and will have three options: Angel hair w/ [...]

Midtown Lunch’er Danny was all about carts on his blog Food in Mouth this week, giving a big thumbs up to Street Meat Palooza 2 winner Kwik Meal (on 45th & 6th). Sadly, the spicy pork tacos at El Rey Del Sabor (on 43rd btw. 5+6th) were plenty spicy but [...]

The sidewalk battle between Kwik Meal’s Muhammed Rahman and his brother (also Muhammed Rahman) got picked up by the New York Post on Sunday. The article tells the brother’s side of the story (”I’m working for him a long time. He make money, and not give it to me”) and adds that he plans to [...]
Muhammed Rahman just can’t make up his mind what do with his fourth Kwik Meal cart. Originally dubbed Meal Obama, the cart was forced to change its name to Kwik Meal IV and move from 37th and 7th to 38th and 6th. Business wasn’t great, so when Rahman’s brother parked a cart on 45th and [...]

It looks like vendor wars don’t just happen during the week. Over the weekend a little competition popped up for Kwik Meal on 45th Street and 6th Ave., and Lunch’er “Vernon” was kind enough to send us this photo. Check out the sign! “Why Pay More Money? Fahima Halal Food much better than Kwik Meal.” [...]

When I stopped by Kwik Meal last week for a pre-Vendy lunch, I was actually joined by Layne the “Taxi Gourmet” (the blogger who hails cabs and asks them to take her to their favorite restaurants.) See what she had to say about her very first lamb over rice platter.

Unhappy with business at his new spot on 45th & 5th, Muhammed Rahman is planning on moving Kwik Meal IV back to its spot on 37th and 6th Ave. I doubt it will make a difference financially (everybody is slow in Midtown right now) but for those of you in Midtown South who were upset [...]

It sounds like the cops were pretty busy with vendor complaints on Monday. There was the ice cream fist fight on 50th & 6th, the Schnitzel Truck twittered that cops were called to a vendor fight downtown, and there was this thing on 45th & 5th…
I got word a few weeks ago that the owner [...]
