Famous Halal Guys and Healthy Vegetarian Cart Mashup?
Last week as I was studying the menu at the Healthy Vegetarian Food Cart, I noticed a familiar face–one of the guys from the Famous Halal Guys cart on 52nd and 6th (the former Shendy’s cart) was getting the hook up. I watched as the vegetarian guys topped off the Famous Halal guy’s chicken and rice platter with the “bean of the day” (it happened to be black eyed peas) and some sauteed veggies. Nice. While I can’t take credit for coming up with the Famous Halal Guys and Healthy Vegetarian Cart mashup, I can say that I support the idea and will be hitting up this combo myself soon. If you were to make your own Healthy Vegetarian + Famous Halal guys combo, what would it include?

Anything Kosher
Any sweets

Hey, I recognize him. I didn’t know he took the reigns of 52/6th though. He used to be on 53/6 lunch (and evening cart back in the day too I believe). He’s not gray anymore though.
The usual Mix with rice, extra hot sauce and adding with veg. burger, grilled veggies and beans. Might as well make it an original hybrid instead of a Rafiqi’s look-alike.

Yup, he’s one of what I call the “old school” Famous Halal guys. I’ve definitely seen him on the the night shift at the 53/6 SW location.
I like the sound of your combo. I’m going to have to make this happen soon.

Cool. I hope you post a pic of the combo up soon for everyone to see, Brownie. ;)

along the same line of thinking, i once got a veggie delight from subways, and when to a halal cart and asked for meat, i think it wound up adding up to the cost of one the subway feast foot long so it was worth it :)
-
Nice!! I love a good mashup.

I was bored so figured I’d give this a shot today.
Went with vegetarian chili poured over lamb and rice. needless to say it was goood! I should’ve got hot sauce though. I thought the hot sauce in the chili would be hot enough.
