Cap the Week With Burgers and Sugar: There isn't a whole lot going on today on the ML Downtown Twitter Tracker...Frites N Meats is on Water St. and Sweetery is on Hudson until 11 a.m.

Mexi-Fusion and Dumplings Times Two: On the ML Downtown Twitter Tracker today... It's a little bit quiet down here with Rickshaw at both Hudson in Soho and Hanover Square, and Mexicue on Water St.

Freeze For Dumplings And Falafel: We have a strong crop of trucks visiting downtown today according to the ML Twitter Tracker... NYC Cravings is on Water St. for the last time before its rebranding, and Rickshaw and Taim Mobile are both on Hudson in Soho.

At Lunch Now: Van Vs. Street Cart On Canal!

Sounds like there was a little excitement at Canal & E. Broadway a little while ago, per Umamimart’s Twitter and their photo above:

Van just knocked over a street vendor’s cart! Corner of Canal/ East Bway in Chinatown. DRAMA!

But wait, there’s more!

Totally crazy! Thank god no one was inside. The van i think accidentally brushed it, knocked it over and just took off!…Of course everyone rallied to help get the cart back up tho. Love NYC!

That is crazy! I have no idea what cart it was, but hopefully no vendor or food (or, I guess, driver) was damaged in all of this. Anybody know what carts are usually at that corner?

Does Your Work Block Twitter?: Did you know that we also have a Downtown Twitter Tracker... today Street Sweets is in front of Federal Hall shooting something for CNBC, Frites N Meats is on Water & Broad due to FOX News taking their Midtown spot, Cupcake Stop is at Broadway & Spring, and Cravings Truck is at the just-out-of-bounds Hudson btw. King & W. Houston.

Free Soup Alert: Have you checked out the Downtown Lunch Twitter Tracker yet? NYC Cravings is on Broad btw. Water+Pearl today, and the Frites N Meats Truck (on Greenwich & Chambers) is giving away free soup with the purchase of burger and fries. If there is anybody we should be following, but aren't, let us know!

Downtown Twitter Tracker: Forgot to mention, the Downtown site also has its own Twitter Tracker! Use it to follow all your favorite twittering lunch spots (and it works, even if your work blocks Twitter.) The link is on the right hand side bar. Let us know if we missed any Downtown lunch spots that we should be following...
