A lot has gone on since we first posted the news that the Wafels & Dinges truck had added pulled pork as a waffle topping on their truck (which parks in Midtown during lunch a few days a week.) Serious Eats: New York weighed in first, and had good things say; and yesterday the truck sent out [...]

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 [...]

Serious Eats:New York files the first official report of the new lunch offering from the Wafels and Dinges Truck we posted about yesterday. My favorite part of the post? The truck thought that the reporters were from Midtown Lunch! Sorry guys… 27th Street & Park Ave. was too far out of bounds for me today. But from the looks of this [...]

From the Wafels and Dinges Truck’s twitter this morning: “We’re on 45th between 6th and 7th today. Today we have a LUNCH SPECIAL: Smoked Pulled Pork BBQ on a waffle with coleslaw and sweet BBQ sauce.” Oh yeah? That could be interesting. Photos and/or reports from anybody who tried this are completely encouraged.

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. [...]

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 [...]

According to Kim from the Treats Truck, the city has put up no parking signs on 46th btw. 5+6th, the new daily spot for the Wafels and Dinges Truck. They had to park on 44th on Tuesday and Wednesday, and plan to be on 45th & 6th for today (Friday), but we’ll see if this [...]

A commenter noticed this post on Chowhound referring to a truck that was spotted last Wednesday on 49th & Madison selling waffles and dinges. Can anybody confirm? Has it been seen since? OG truck or one of the newer imposters? Please to comment…
