Dessert Truck & Treats Truck Closing Until January

Tuesday is your last chance for some hot Dessert Truck goodness, or Treats Truck action before they both close for Winter break.  Monday the Dessert Truck will be at Park & 52nd for their normal daytime schedule, but Tuesday they will be leaving early (at 2:30pm) before disappearing entirely until mid/late January. Treats Truck will be at 38th [...]

Today is ‘Anything Covered in Chocolate Day’

I’m not exactly sure what that means (or where it comes from), but it sounds promising… and the Treats Truck is celebrating with “some very special chocolate covered specials” today on 38th and 5th Ave. I have to admit this is kind of better than National Brownie Day, or National Cupcake Day (eat your heart [...]

Midtown Trucks Roll Out the Hot Stuff

With the temperature starting to dip down, it’s not surprising to see places rolling out the hot soups and warm specials for the winter.  Food trucks especially seem to be taking the lead… for example, Rickshaw Dumpling Truck just introduced Miso Soup to the menu.  You can get it alone for $3, or added to [...]

Calexico/Treats Truck Will Come to Your Holiday Party

The “best of the Vendys” catering alliance between the Treats Truck and the Calexico Cart that was briefly mentioned in the New York Daily News after the Vendy Awards has been finalized, according to a press release sent out today.  Why does this matter to Midtown Lunch’ers?  Because they’ll be available for office parties!  (So [...]

Biryani Cart & Treats Truck Are People’s Choice at The 2008 Vendy Awards!

5 vendors battled it out at the Fourth Annual Vendy Awards on Saturday night, and for the second year in a row, a Midtown cart was the crowd favorite, but failed to take home the Vendy Cup. Last year it was Kwik Meal… this year the Biryani Cart. Despite putting forward an amazing effort, and [...]

Photo by nycblondieandbrownie
As you knew from our post on Tuesday, Wednesday was a big day on 45th btw. 6+7th. The newly launched Rickshaw Dumpling Truck and the Treats Truck were parked next to each other in what Eater dubbed “Food Truck Row.”  There was even a halal cart and ice cream truck thrown in for [...]

The Treats Truck Will Try Her Luck at 45th St. Today

Back in June we mentioned how long the line for the Treats Truck had become on Wednesdays- the one day a week it’s parked on 45th btw. 6+7th. The owner Kim herself has told me it’s her most popular spot, which may lead one to wonder- “Why don’t you park there more often?”  The people want it.  [...]

Wafels & Dinges Forced Out By Movie; Imposter Waffle Truck Giving Out Free Samples

This just into the Midtown Lunch Inbox: The “imposter waffle truck” is parked on “Lexington between 58th and 59th” right now “handing out bite sized free samples.”  This is the truck that will eventually be serving pomme frites (they don’t have them today) and different from the Wafels and Dinges Truck, which was planning on parking [...]

Rickshaw Dumpling Cart Weeks Away; Owner Gets Training From Treats Truck

 
Passed by the Treats Truck yesterday (on 45th btw. 6+7th) and owner Kim had two helpers, so the line was moving much quicker than normal.  One helper took orders, one packaged the orders up, and Kim took the money. Very nice.  Unfortunately it’s not a permanent thing, because one of the helpers was Kenny Lao, founder and [...]
