Fried chicken is fried chicken? NO it's not!…read more This is the best fried chicken around, tasty, fresh, flavoursome and all round addictive! In an odd way it feels healthy as well! You can get cheaper fried chicken but why bother when for a few quid more you can get Mother Clucker! These guys are often dotted around London at places like Street Feast so if you get a chance make sure you give them a try! Hard to come up with 3 tips, but- 1.Don't bother with chips...fill up on chicken 2. Get messy, you don't need a knife, and you have no right to moan about getting messy...it's fried chicken! 3. Go back for more!

So we decided to get on the scooter and go for lunch and was it worth. We had 2 combo 3 southern fried chicken which I think was 5 strips, Cajun chips which they put hit sauce and lime majo on and a drink all for £9 but with our Yelp discount £2 off. Staff were really friendly food was out of this world. The chicken was moist the covering was amazing. Was not greasy at all. Will def be coming back and recommending it to all our friends. Thanks for the idea Yelp.

I'm surprised Wholefood Heaven isn't featured on Yelp. This business specializes in vegan and…read morevegetarian fare. If you want to find out more about the people that run it, just click on their website. There's some fascinating information there. After I started eating an inferior pad thai, I was looking for an alternative at the Whitecross Market. As I walking back to Old Street, I spotted Wholefood Heaven operating out of an old Citroen van. The sign advertised small and large Buddha bowls. Each contained the following: massaman curry with new potato, pineapple & soya chunks; flash steamed garden greens (kale today); carrot & kimchee pickle; shortgrain brown rice; omega seed mix. The Baby Buddha is £4.50, The Big Buddha is £5.00, and you can add Halloumi for an extra £1. These bowls are vegetarian and vegan, wheat & gluten free. And since it was near closing time and they didn't know if my greens would be steamed, they knocked off 50p. I fell in love with the Buddha Bowl at first sight. It was colorful with the seeds, carrot, and kale. And the odors wafting out of the bowl were quite nice. The bowl was sweet with coconut and pineapple. The additional hot sauce gave it a spicy bite with tang. The kale added a crunchy texture and a slight bitter tone. The seeds added a visual punch along with their nutritional value. Overall, it was a tasty, nutritional, and filling dish. I cannot wait to have more. The couple that runs Wholefood Heaven also gives cooking lessons.

With a previous award for best street food dish of the year (albeit a bit old now), it's not…read moresurprise that the Buddha Bowl here is incredibly good. Packed with flavour and a huge amount of vegetables and food, the large here will easily fill the hungriest of customers, and the extra halloumi you can add for £1 is well worth it. Get the spicy sauce, it adds a nice extra kick to the bowl! My only issue with this place is that the rice and massaman curry can get a bit one dimensional stuck at the bottom of the pot. The chilli sauce makes it more interesting, but if you've eaten all your extra veg/halloumi by the time you make it to the last quarter, it's a bit of a hard slog eating all that rice and potatoes. Still, just mix it all up, get it to go and you will not be disappointed. Some of the best vegan food I've had in London!

Their Yellow Curry is honestly the BEST Thai Curry ever and is so addictive. My husband first told me about the place while looking for places to get lunch after moving offices. He would take it back to his desk and within minutes of the smell wafting around the office everybody else would then run out and get some too. I haven't tasted a Yellow Curry as good as from this van yet despite my desperate search. Of all the food stalls the Market has to offer this is defiantly one to try! EDIT: May 2013. I had to revisit this place while back visiting family and it's still as good as it was. Under $5 for a meal that's better than most restaurants. Love love love!! (P.S: Check the pictures I uploaded)

Yes, Thai Van was tasty, but found it a tad pricey for the amount of food you get, especially considering this is a food truck! At the end of the day, Thai Van is average Thai food, maybe I've been spoiled by NYC's Hells Kitchen though.

This is located at the Maltby Market, and it's grilled right in front of you and sliced in half so that you can share with a friend easily. Keens Cheddar, Ogleshield & Onion Mix (£5.50) - You can add bacon for £1, which I highly recommend. This was the flavor that we chose and it was simple but just delicious. The cheese was flavorful but not overpowering, and there was a decent amount of bacon. The sandwich was grilled well (possibly a little overdone in areas but it was still fine), and the cheese was all melted. I didn't want the sandwich to be finished as I was eating. Other flavors: - Rosary Goats Cheese, Honey, Walnut & Rosemary Butter (£6) - Cropwell Bishop Stilton Bacon & Pear Chutney (£6) - Queso Chihuahua, Chorizo & Jalapeno Salsa (£6.50) I'd definitely get another sandwich here (even the same exact flavor because it was that good) next time I'm on a trip to London. Don't miss this place at Maltby Market, it's one of the best grilled cheese sandwiches I've had in my life!

All of those things shouldn't work together, but they do! Honestly, give it a shot! Also, the sandwiches are gigantic. The guys working the truck are also the nicest dudes. Pro-tip: if you want the 28-day beef sandwich, you gotta get there early.

I would have loved for them to have made and served some Caribbean drinks. Punches such as pineapple punch or peanut punch. I could go on for ages, but I can't spell em so I won't. On a level though, the food is great. At first I was a bit dubious because of the clean factor that go with these road food vans. Take my word, they are clean clean clean. They let me go up in the van and have a look, which I thought was wicked. Just showed that they had nothing to hide where cleanliness is concerned.

Conveniently located on Rupert street, which is a stone's throw from the Berwick Street market (where you can pick up produce, organic milk, etc), it's a great one-stop trip during your lunch break or midday adventure. Prices are incredibly reasonable for every dish, portions are huge, and they have tables and benches set up to festively eat right there on the street. These folks work really hard, they set up and break down their tents and cooking stalls every day they're in operation, and never leave a mess in the street. A must-try if you're central in Soho.
