However, if you get one during peak hours, it's quite delicias as the cart suggests. The husband and wife duo does a great job grilling all day. The hot sauce they offer tastes like Cholula.

It is directly across from the Dunkin Donuts in the middle of a dozen Mexican street food vendors, you can't miss it with its blue and white umbrella cover. In a busy intersection filled with cars, people, running trains, and classic Mexican street food, you will find Pinchos La Suquita (a skewer cart) selling BBQ pork and chicken skewers, chorizo sausages, roast pork, and one of my favorites, Elote (grilled Mexican street corn). For $3 you have a choice between grilled or boiled corn, with mayo and Cotija cheese. For less than $10 you can get more than you can eat. The neighborhood around Corona Plaza is filled with authentic Mexican restaurants, street vendors, bakeries, and supermarkets. A wonderful cultural experience that starts with this central food cart.

Located underneath the subway lines and is just a grill on the sidewalk, they have a little table/seating area and has a unique menu. I ordered the Tlayuda, which is like an Oaxacan pizza(?). Set on top of a large and crispy tortilla, it's coated with beans, cheese, tomatoes, avocado and an assortment of different meats like grilled steak, ground pork, and grilled pork. It was really tasty and I loved the crisp tortilla underneath. Definitely a dish to share because it's huuuuuge. Cash only!

It's a cart located on 90th st and Roosevelt ave that sells homemade Peruvian food, the cart looks like a regular cart but their food was pretty awesome. The Food: Anticucho- The beef heart was my fav item here. The heart was so tender and I loved the smokiness from the grill. The texture of the heart was wonderful. https://www.yelp.com/user_local_photos?select=xkN4jYiAZD4Tykpf9NQ0Lw&userid=Y_iTTjKvV5hLy-880SZzlA Ceviche de Pescado- I thought this was great, I loved the acidic kick from the leche de tigre and I loved how it was able to add so much flavor to the fish. Lomo Saltado- This was a standard item, it was good but not the most exciting but it did have a good flavor. Tamale- The texture of the tamale was great. Flavor was good. Empanada- This was ok, it kinda threw me off that there were raisins in it. I prefer my savory items to just be savory.

It was my first time having Chinese BBQ cart skewers and I was an instant fan. I've gone back a bunch, taking other people with me. By far my favorites are the lamb, pork, and enoki mushroom, ordered spicy of course. The lamb is so tender, and the mushrooms are just so fun to eat. They're slippery, they are hard to chew, they don't break apart, they get stuck in my teeth, and I end up swallowing large bites which are covered in that spicy sauce and make me choke and...I just love it! I can't explain it, there's something about the chewiness and heat that while inconvenient, I really enjoy. The beef is also solid. The squid is OK. The chicken gizzards are not bad, I'm still developing a taste for them but they are not overcooked and tough here. The only thing I'd say to skip are the shrimp, they come out with their shells still on and are just rubbery. Cash only, if it's not obvious. If you buy something like $20 or more they give you a free soda. They have some stools set up if you want to eat it right there, but they're usually under the awning of New Golden Sparkling market and well, there's a lot of birds and bird poop there. I would just walk with it. There are lots of BBQ carts up and down Broadway, but I think the meat here is the best (not tough or fatty), and the service is always great. The main guy manning the grill doesn't speak too much English, but there's usually a younger guy helping him who does. Even without the help, ordering is easy, you just say the type of skewer you want, how many, and if you want it spicy. If you're really struggling, point! But it's never come to that.
