    Delicious $6. But no pita. Better than the one in front of Citibank.
    Graciela C.

    I HAVE COMPARED BOTH CARTS IN THE INTERSECTION OF 86TH ST AND 5TH AVE. THIS ONE *PYRAMID* IS BETTER. WHY? YES, finally a good halal cart in Brooklyn, because I was getting tired of traveling all the way to Manhattan for the Halal guys, which lately have been a little disappointing (small and not as tasty plus wait in line and the parking, basically nonexistent) And also because we have it in Cali now. This is unfortunately the cart with no lines. The cart people think is not good! So I decided to try BOTH CARTS at the same time and see for myself. (we were 7 and pretty experienced in halal eating haha) And honestly, this one was tastier, with better rice (yellower, better seasoned) and softer meats, than the other one. Me and my friends agreed too. It was definitely tastier. The only bad thing is that they don't have pita bread with the mix combo (also $6). I truly hope they do well, because sometimes we are too blind and too close minded to experience new things. Just because there was no line doesn't mean it is not good. TRY IT, if you don't like it, tell them and tell me why.

    Combination Plate (with French Fries)

    Some of the best halal I've ever had in my life! That's saying alot considering how many halal carts I've visited in my life in NYC. They serve the usual lamb or chicken over yellow rice, but in my case and what I highly recommend is to order the combo lamb AND chicken over yellow rice with barbeque sauce. Yes, the key to it all has always been barbeque sauce! Like most halal customers, I used to order the white sauce and hot sauce on top of my rice dish, but Three Pyramids has completely changed my philosophy of what sauce to add on top. In addition, their halal dishes come with crinkled French fries inside! How awesome is that?! That was definitely a first for me when I first ordered here. And of course another great thing is that they are open late into the wee hours for those looking for a late night snack.

    The combo (chicken and lamb) over rice -It's a clean and neat package

    This is one of the best halal food places I've been to in the city. The five stars is entirely for the food - it's cart on a street corner so there's no ambience or service to speak of. They put fries in the rice bowls which adds to the yum factor. It's a satisfying meal for $6. Recommendation - Combo rice bowl Tip: Add the sauces to your bowl based on your spice preference - they're great.

    Lotus Sister Food Cart - Stinky tofu is a must get

    I am obsessed with the stinky tofu from this food cart. The lady is super generous with the portion…read moresize. You get so much tofu and the pickled vegetable pairs so well with it. Although it's not the traditional Taiwanese version I'm used to (with cabbage and carrots), I really like the lady's variation! (She uses shredded pickled daikon and carrots). I also ask for all the sauces and it's not too spicy either! I've only spoken Mandarin each time I ordered from her, I'm not sure if she speaks English or not. However, if you're a none Mandarin speaker, definitely speak up or grab her attention somehow to order since it can get chaotic sometimes if she's busy and she doesn't always remember who was first in line. She's very friendly!! I have gotten her stinky tofu at least five times since moving to Brooklyn and I've never gotten sick from it. Don't be intimidated by the street carts!

    OVERVIEW: In many countries, it's not unusual for locals…read moreto eat two, or even three meals at street food stalls. This is not surprising, as many of these vendors can offer a hot, and delicious meal quickly, and for a relatively reasonable price. So, if you happen to be near Brooklyn Chinatown's famous 8th Ave, come visit Lotus Sister Food Cart. You'll experience the unique charm and feel of an authentic street food cart. And, at the same time, grab a quick tasty snack, or even a meal for a few people. For close to a decade it's been located on the corner of 57th Street and 8th Ave. And by chance, it's diagonally across 8th Ave from "Tofu Stall", another very interesting street vendor to visit. Keep in mind, that what's primarily being served here are quick eats, such as skewers, fried chicken, noodles, and dumplings. But this doesn't take away from the fact that the food here is delicious, and crazy fun to order and eat. WHAT TO ORDER: - The cheung fun rice noodle rolls are standard, but very good, and can be topped with fish balls, or curry fish balls. Of course peanut sauce and hot sauce can be added. - All the skewers are good, especially the chicken, chicken wing, fish tofu, fish balls, and others. - Their famous fried chicken legs are one of the best items, and are really crispy, with a hint of five spice flavor. Absolutely delicious. - The lo mien and rice noodles are tasty, but even better when topped with some of the skewers, or maybe some hot sauce. - The stinky tofu is a mild version, which is good to order if you like it, or if your trying it for the first time. - The dumplings are pork and chive, and are tasty, even though they are deep fried. - Plain cheung fun noodles, fried tofu puffs and other items are available in bulk, to take home and use in your own cooking. SERVICE: I really like the Auntie that runs this cart. She is friendly, to the point, and keeps things moving quickly, so everyone receives their order in a timely manner. When you're ordering, she always offers something additional for you to try, that she feels you will enjoy. She speaks Chinese and English, and is also happy to take your order by the point at the food or menu method if necessary. PARTING THOUGHTS: If I'm close to 8th Ave, hungry, and I don't feel like ordering from a restaurant, I can't pass up this auntie's food cart. Hell, just the smelll of her frying her famous chicken legs, is enough to catch your attention from almost a block away. So go visit her, and grab some chicken legs or cheung fun, and, what ever other tasty treats she convinces you to order. You'll be happy afterwards, I promise.

    On the Fourth day in NYC, I said, "I command YELP to lead me to the best rated Hot Dog on the Upper…read moreEast Side." Yelp obeyed, and led me to the Hot Dog. I put it in my mouth, and that's what happened. I inhaled the whole thang down. Then I looked at what I had done, and it was good. I think the vendor's secret must be either using Hebrew National or injecting liquid into the hot dog, because it's so moist and juicy when you bite into it. The amount of condiments and kraut is just right.

    I don't care if it's not in good taste to give a hot dog vendor 5 stars. When it's an unseasonably…read morewarm and sunny November day in NYC, you've been up since 4am for the first flight outta Chicago and you want to wander Central Park but don't think you can move because you haven't eaten anything except the American Airlines cookie things, just *seeing* the hot dog vendor equals 5 stars in my book. For $2, I enjoyed my first real meal of the day and the first in NYC in 2 years - a dog with spicy mustard and sauerkraut. And it was good, people. Reeeal good. Made well enough that mustard didn't squirt out all over me and peg me as the lame-o Midwesterner posing as a slick kitty from the city for a day. Delicious enough to soothe my empty stomach (yes, it's true - sauerkraut can soothe! Who knew?). I think I mentioned in my Renegade Craft Fair review that I purchased an "I [picture of Chicago-style hot dog] Chicago" t-shirt, which has led my husband and me to add "I hot dog Chicago" to our vernacular. Now I can say I hot dog New York, too.

    BBQ Kabob Cart - Chicken, lamb and beef

    It's late, it's dark, almost everything is closed and you're on a hunt for food.... What do you…read moreturn to? I would suggest: made to cook skewers :) Yes, the cart looks a little sketch on the corner of 61st and 8th, but I'll assure that the food is legit, yummy and cheap. With a variety of options offered from typical beef / chicken / pork, you can get gizzard, squid, lamb and other stuff. Prices range from $1-4 and the portions are appetizer sized (meaning they're not huggggge but enough to satisfy a temporary craving). Simply walk up to the cook, tell him what you want and wait for your turn. For the most part, I'll assume this is a cash only place. So make sure to bring your ones and coins to make the transaction easier! Also, highly recommend the spicy powder on your food. Quite tasty with a pow.

    I've been wanting to review this place since forever but never knew there was a review page for it…read moreuntil about a day ago. Once I found out the page existed, I used it as an excuse to drive down here to "do some research" to make sure that the quality is still the same before I could give the place a fair review. Yep, still one of the better BBQ meat on a stick carts around. The great thing about this place is that they marinate everything very well and it shows with each bite that you take. Once cooked over charcoal, they sprinkle a generous amount of cumin seasoning to everything then they ask if you want chili powder added on top of it. For me, the answer is always a yes for the chili powder. The choices on a stick here is beef, lamb, chicken wing, tofu, fish balls, and hot dog. My favorite is the lamb (really tender), but the tofu, beef, and chicken wing isn't too far behind. Everything is a dollar a stick except for the chicken wing, which costs $1.50 each. This is as cheap as good street food gets. It's very small though so it's only good for a snack or else you would have to buy a lot to fill yourself up.
