Cravings Truck Eats Lunch Elsewhere

The Cravings Truck, which is parked on 24th btw. Mad+Park, admitted via Twitter to taking a lunch field trip to the Shake Shack today. Like this guy, I’m always suspicious of people who don’t eat their own food- but I suppose you can’t eat this every single day.  And it is the Shake Shack.

Your Guide to This is Why You’re Fat’s Eat N Tweet Challenge

The week that gross food fanatics have been waiting for is finally here… “This is Why You’re Fat: The Book” is out, and to celebrate they’re having an Eat N Tweet Challenge today involving 6 NYC food trucks (and a lot of over the top lunch specials). The way the contest works is [...]

NYC Cravings Truck Now Selling Zongzi

It appears as if the NYC Cravings truck is determined to bring Chinatown to Midtown bit by bit.  The latest addition to their Taiwanese menu is zongzi, a Chinese tamale-like snack featuring gluttinous rice stuffed in bamboo leaves and studded with all sorts of goodies.  Their version features peanuts, pork, chinese sausage, egg yolk, sichuan [...]

NYC Cravings Makes Thursday a Midtown Day

It looks like the NYC Cravings Truck is changing up their schedule a bit. Their Friday spot (on 53rd btw. Lex+Park) is now their Thursday spot, and Wednesdays and Fridays are now open (check their twitter or the ML Twitter Tracker to find out where they’ll be.) Mondays is still 45th & 6th. [...]

NYC Cravings Makes “Secret Menu Item” Permanent

Last Monday, the NYC Cravings Taiwanese fried chicken truck offered an “off the menu” special via Twitter: “Secret menu item: porken, combo of chicken & pork, for $7. tell your friends only. Tweet will self destruct in 30 mins.” Sure enough they deleted the tweet 30 minutes later… but that doesn’t mean the special is [...]

Taiwanese Fried Chicken is Back?

After missing two Midtown days in the shop the NYC Cravings Truck is back, and to make up for it they are attempting to park on 48th & 6th. Awhile back Jiannetto’s tried parking on that block, and lasted a day or two before being chased away by building security. You might want to [...]

No Taiwanese Fried Chicken For You Today

The NYC Cravings Truck was named one of the 10 best food trucks in the country by GQ! They usually spend Fridays on 53rd btw. Park+Lex, but sadly their truck is in the shop and won’t be open today.  To make up for it, they said they will come back in that spot on Wednesday.  [...]

NYC Cravings Off the Menu Special

The NYC Cravings truck is parked in their Monday spot today (on 45th & 6th) and are offering up this special: “Secret menu item: porken, combo of chicken & pork, for $7. tell your friends only. Tweet will self destruct in 30 mins.” Sure enough, it’s already been deleted from their feed but is still [...]

NYC Cravings Truck is Not Just Taiwanese Fried Chicken Anymore

It’s been just over a month since the NYC Cravings Truck made their Midtown debut, and while not all lunchers have been as gaga about the Taiwanese truck food as I, the crowds are still turning out Mondays (on 46th btw. 6+7th) and Fridays (on 53rd btw. Park+Lex.)  I’m a huge fan of their Taiwanese [...]

NYC Cravings Truck is Back Today With Pork Chops & Tea Eggs

As if lunch today wasn’t a hard enough decision today.  Bacon implosion at Channel Four… the $9 lobster roll at Certe… and now this:  The NYC Cravings Truck is back today, and by popular demand they’ve added (a limited number of) pork chops ($7) and tea eggs ($1 each) to their menu.  The plan is [...]
