Dan,

Wow what an excellent series. I found out about your site through a daily radio show that I listen to up here on our CBC.

Up north here in Canada we have a lot of trouble getting great street food due to over zealous public health laws. Recently Toronto has allowed lisences for “ethinic food carts” so we may see our first Thia food carts and falafel carts rolling out onto the streets. The only down side to this recent development is that the cart license and start up fee are equal to close to $35,000. Ya no kidding ! Are most of the carts in NY licensed or are they just sort of a grey area legally?

When ever I travel I make a point of sampling as much of the local street fair as I can. One of the best places to eat off the street (and cheapest) was in Barrinquia Colombia. Their carts where mostly donkey powered but the amazing dishes they came up with where limitless.

Please keep up the great work.

Hey Andy – I’ve had Sammy’s Halal a few times. I agree with you, it’s great. And perhaps one day we’ll cover it for the show.

We new we wanted to cover one a Halal Cart near to the beginning of the series and had trouble deciding over Sammy’s, The Halal Guys, Kahns, or Qwik Meal. Ultimately we went with The Halal Guys because of the culture that surrounds the cart.

Thanks for the suggestion either way!
