If you've had chicken over rice from other carts, you'll notice that the chicken sometimes has an unpleasant smell and taste. You will not face that situation when eating from here! Also, if you would like a suggestion, I highly recommend you to try the philly cheesesteak from this cart. It's amazing!! Most people usually try the chicken over rice, but I recently tried the philly cheesesteak, and I had to go back to get more!! And most importantly, the owner of this cart is a very nice man. He is friendly, polite, and knows how to make a good chicken over rice. He does love to use onion in his chicken over rice, so if you aren't a big fan of onion, feel free to let him know! :))

This place has been at this corner for years. As far as halal food goes, it is good quality. He…read moregets a decent amount of business from all the office workers nearby, so the food is fresh. And he offers more choices than other carts. You can get the usual chicken or lamb, but he also offers kofta, fish, shrimp or shish kebab. And he has several sides to choose from that other places don't - pickles, coleslaw, olives, salad, etc. However, I've had equally good halal food at equal or lower prices with bigger portions at many other places. He charges for $10-$11 for a dish of average portion size.

I came to check out this place based on my brother's recommendation. We were having some…read moreconsistency issues at sahara which is one of our favorite halal carts. My brother had said it's good and consistent because it's the same guy here all the time so you won't get a lot of food one day and almost no food another day. Well the portion I got here was not super big probably just enough so that if I ate another 25% of an order I would be full. When I told him this he said no all I said is that it's consistent. So I laughed to myself. Anyways I came to try this cart on towards the end of the week and a bit later in the afternoon around 1pm, dropping by after I made a large return at ups. It's $9 for chicken or lamb or a combo over rice. They also have a variety of other stuff like hot dogs and kabobs. Kabobs were on the more expensive side $15. I got a combo over rice and a chicken over rice, which by the way does not come with a drink. I asked for extra white sauce and green sauce on the combo and the same on the chicken over rice but also adding in hot sauce. When I was handed the bag, well it felt pretty light. In my mind I was already thinking on man I'm going to give it to my brother, making me think this is going to be a nice filling portion. But still I had high hopes this would be delicious. Finally I get home. I open it up and yes it's not a lot of food. But that's fine it'll be delicious right? Nope it was just ok... I didn't actually get extra white sauce which was disappointing, it was actually barely any sauce. Rice was cooked nicely but not the most flavorful and the meat was just ok. The chicken was better than the lamb. Worth a try but I think this is definitely an average tasting halal cart.

There are two halal carts on 85th: the blue or the green cart. I've tried both and I'm team green…read more But seriously, M&S Halal Food has the blue cart (sorry, what's their name?) beat. I got a lamb over rice with the red, white, and green sauce and it was the perfect amount of heat and a burst of flavor without the grimy taste of cheap oil. For the small price of $8 dollars, this will fill you up for the whole day. The man serving the food is also a great guy and gave us free drinks on the house. The only caveat is that he closes a little earlier than the blue cart on most days. I've also missed the green cart these past couple of days and I refuse to get my fix from the blue cart. I guess the anticipation makes for the better reward.

I asked my friend what he missed most from NY and his answer was "halal". So ever since then, I've…read morebeen on a quest to find the perfect halal recommendation and that led me to Sunnyside reddit where this truck was overwhelming recommended (out of all food trucks in Sunnyside). That's a pretty good. Redditors can be silo'd sometimes but their opinions are pretty close to mine on the NY pizza scene. Trying to order by phone was a journey in itself. There're some pictures floating online that either points to their Facebook, a phone number, or ubereats. The last post on Facebook was in 2014, so that wasn't an option. I ordered on ubereats only to stop last minute cause I realized the pickup location was deep in Astoria. I feel bad for the suckers who didn't realize that. And the phone number led to a disgruntled man who's presumably tired of people thinking he operates a halal truck. All options are a bust, so on foot it is! See they're trying to make me healthy. I get to the truck and noticed jt was recently renovated. All contact information was removed except... their Facebook. Reminder: their last post was in 2014. You know, charming immigrant things. I get a lamb salad and chicken over rice with... green sauce *gasp*. Yeah I didn't know what it was either, I was just feeling adventurous. Spoiler alert: it's "vegetable sauce". It tasted like a mildly herby sauce. I wouldn't bother. The wife and I were excited but a few bites in and the verdict is: meh. Safe to say: I'm very disappointed in Reddit. If THIS is the best food truck in Sunnyside then the rest must taste like dog excrement. I'm convinced the Sunnyside redditors are hermits who don't eat outside the neighborhood.

Mix platter with brown rice & extra Hotsauce for $6.00, how can you go wrong. Best part is that, this spot does not give me the halal burps or heartburn :p

Nepalese / Bhutan / Tibetan momo options are so abundant in Jackson Heights that sometimes it's…read morehard to know where to start. An easy choice and convenient to the train station is A&G Himalayan Fresh Food (which recently changed things up by *also* calling itself "Gang Chen Bodkyi Momo"), a cart that sits in a quiet part (aka dead zone) of the busiest intersection in all of Jackson Heights at 73rd & Queens Blvd. If it wasn't already obvious, momos are the item to get. On this cart they're labeled as "dumplings" but they have both veggie and meat versions. For a $5, one will get 8 of their steamed dumplings which usually come piping hot, all lined up in a styrofoam container and steaming into the air. Most of the time, the momos are plump, juicy, and go well with any of the condiments in the window. Be careful though, like Chinese soup dumplings, they can easily burn the roof of anyone's mouth or tongue from their pockets of hot soup. They also serve what they call bread, but it's more of a stuffed flatbread. At $8 for a large, it's easily the most expensive thing on the menu but for things like their potato curry ($3) it works well as a vehicle for soaking up the broth / juice. This also works well for any momo spillage as well and its condiments. There is also water / tea availble for a $1 each. There are also frozen momos available at $50 a sack and frozen quantities of bread as well. Surprisingly delivery is an option, just call 917-362-8082 or 212-920-0881 and be prepared to speak very slowly.

I stopped by this food cart several years ago as part of a yelp Momo crawl event, and recently I…read morehad a chance to try out their sweet bread named "Bally". I believe this is a unleavened bread, as it was dense, weighty, and also a little crumbly texture-wise. This was pretty much confirmed when cutting a slice, as the profile showed an interior nearly devoid of air pocket crevices. The above comments aren't necessarily negatives but just observations. Despite the moniker the bread's sweetness level was tame, and the sweetness I tasted was not an unduly artificial taste, but more comparable to a honey flavor. It was a nice flavor though. Overall this was a pretty ordinary bread, IMO leaving it to be eaten as a side dish or (if eaten by itself) to be treated with additions like butter or some sort of fruit spread to impart more flavor.
