"MLHH" by Dave

Who's up for another get-together? I'm thinking some day the week after this, June 4-6, is best. Locations?

I'm partial to the new UES Pony Bar, because it's near home, the beer is good, and the food above average and inexpensive, but hey, suggestions are more than welcome.

"Omar is Back! Little Morocco Lives!" by Kopper

Kopper — Wed, 11 Apr 2012 12:47:30 -0500

Well it seems the Gods of Street Meat have looked upon we sorry souls of Midtown West kindly. As a longtime Little Morocco regular, Omar had my mobile as I would sometimes order specials ahead of time to pick up. Well, he just called me after not having heard from him for almost a year. "Justin, I'm back on 39th st," was the greeting and he didn't need to say who he was when I heard that.

I asked if this is a temporary gig and he said no, it is long term. It seems LA was not the easiest place to start a Street Meat cart and he has returned to more familiar, if not warmer, climes.

I will be heading down for a late lunch today so I haven't seen what the cart looks like, but look closely and if it is Omar manning the grill, you would do well to place an order.

"What's your favorite combo?" by EaterKnievel

EaterKnievel — Mon, 21 May 2012 12:28:57 -0500

I like to do a medium chicken tikka + a double from Trini Paki Boys when I'm really starving. And I'm not sure if they still offer it, but I thought the lunch special at Margon's (a cuban and a side of red beans and rice) was, at nine measly dollars, the best deal in the city.

So what's your best combo? I think this question could get some great responses. It can be a combo offered by a vendor or just something you put together yourself. Whaddaya got?

Myles, Leo and Gerry Fitzgerald. They also shared a role in Baby Geniuses 2: Superbabies (which I've never seen.) but since then,

they haven't done any acting that I know of. They're great hockey players, though. I think they're about 17 years old now, but I

could be wrong.

"Plaza Food Hall - New & Improved" by hightemp

hightemp — Wed, 23 May 2012 12:40:43 -0500

The new and improved plaza food hall opened today.

No.7 Sub
Luke's Lobster
William Greenberg (woo hoo Black & White Cookies)
Billy Bakery
Lady M
and about 10 others...

I went by right at noon and there were people but definitely no "crowd" yet. Most people seemed to be going for Luke's but I made a beeline for No. 7 Sub. Got the Broccoli sub (Broccoli, Lychee Muchim, Ricotta Salata, Pine Nuts $9 - $9.80 with tax) which was awesomely good.

Not sure how much of it will prove to be in the "true midtown lunch" category...but its still an exciting
addition.

Anyone else go? Any other recommendations?

"Midtown Lunch Birthday Party?" by CisforCookie

I went to the Midtown Lunch birthday party last year and had an AMAZING time. I know it was right around this time of year, so I've been skimming the blog for a while to see if they're having a similar event this year, but haven't seen anything yet. Any news?

"Best deal in Fidi - falafel over rice at Adel's Halal Cart" by boomshanka

boomshanka — Wed, 06 Jul 2011 13:48:08 -0500

$5 gets you 8 crispy falafel over yellow rice, salad, tahini, hummus, some awesome carmelized egglant pieces (if you don't get them ask) and some super spicy hot sauce. An old-school gem amidst all the trendy trucks in the area. It's a ton of great tasting food for $5, on Water and Old Slip.

Any others in the $5 range?

"Royal Grill 44th & 6th" by STexas

STexas — Sat, 19 May 2012 13:25:30 -0500

This place was great, came from Texas and wanted some street meat. Really nice guy was running it, was a pleasure to talk to.

Food:

You get what you're expecting, but out of all the vendors i got a really large portion and it was beyond delicious. I'm no foodie, but try this and you will be happy.

Thanks!
