Which to be honest is a little more expensive than the average city hotdog but you get to pick some unique toppings like kimchi, cucumber and chipotle mayo. The menu is limited with only two options, chicken or grass fed beef hotdog. I decided to go for the beef hotdog with everything! Bun gets toasted and warm. From a presentation stand point, the hotdogs looked beautifully ensamble. I must say it was one of the most unique hotdogs that I have ever tried, in a good way. Somehow all the toppings paired perfectly together. It was delicious and flavorful. You can definitely taste that is a high quality meat. I truly enjoyed it!

Pooling a bunch of well-known area eateries and vendors in booths along the Broadway pedestrian mall just south of Times Square is a great way to sample some of NYC's tasty treats. It will be for a limited time until 10/17, so you'll have to hoof it or wait to see if they come back next year. A full range of local eats are represented, which reflects the cross section of ethnic/culture that is New York. With Thai, Japanese, Turkish, Italian, Chinese cuisines being offered, there's pretty much anything to satisfy your palate. It was very hard to choose among the varied menus, but most vendors kept it simple and stuck with their most popular dishes. Lots of steel tables & chairs along the mall for you to sit and enjoy your food also. We started out at the north end at Mimi & Coco's for some takoyaki, a boat of doughy octopus balls topped with bonito flakes and a side of edamame & corn. The balls were lacking in octopus and the edamame was salty, but not bad. Next stop, Roberta's for some thin crust pizza. They brought their mobile wood fired oven and cranked out our white pizza in nothing flat. We moved onto Bangkok Bar for some tasty, freshly cooked chicken pad thai. What I was looking forward to was Red Hook Lobster Pound and their buttery, succulent Connecticut lobster roll. Paired with a cup of clam chowder, the tastebuds were jumping! Dessert? Wafels & Dinges is in the house. The Throwdown Wafel (inspired by Bobby Flay) was super sweet with speculoos spread, whipped cream & powdered sugar and enough to get 2 people's sugar to diabetic levels. Everything was a little on the pricey side, but nowhere else were you going to get this kind of eating experience, so it was well worth it. There were also plenty of other food stands to try. Remember, another week and a half and it's gone!

Each place only offers 1 to 3 dishes and have a lot of it prepared, if you want food from it you must buy tickets and each restaurant prices their dishes by the # of tickets (i.e. 3 tickets for a taco). It makes it more efficient and gives you a chance to taste more food and become more of a fan of their food. Overall I enjoyed it - I will try to get there earlier so I don't have to worry about the lines.

This food truck festival is definitely a cool idea. What with our town being overrun by awesome…read morefood trucks, what could be better than bringing a selection of those together in one place so you can graze from many? Sadly, execution was a letdown. I haven't been to the first few PARKED! festivals so I can't comment on how the logistics compared, but the lines and crowds made this festival hard to enjoy. The 30 food trucks participating were lined up on cobblestoned Fulton St, Front St, South St, Water St, and a few right outside Pier 17. Fourteen "local vendors" had stands, along with many others selling food and miscellaneous goods all around, although they served more as a distraction from the main event. A beer garden with a small, diverse selection out on the pier. Scheduled live music and kids' events rounded out the entertainment. The festival ran from 10 AM - 9 PM, and there was a VIP pass valid in the evening hours that allows you to bypass the ridiculous lines (Fast Pass style) in exchange for 10 bites from 10 trucks. The lines, the lines, the lines. Unlike festivals with an entry fee, each truck still had to take individual orders and payments, a major rate-limiting step. And while they're usually designed to prepare orders in a hurry, that doesn't mean they can keep up with the number of people this festival attracted. Thank goodness we arrived at 11 AM. At that point, the festival was fun. No more than 1 - 2 people on any given line (except for Korilla BBQ and Kimchi Taco), you could actually enjoy your food without turning around and hitting someone with it. We got and enjoyed food from four trucks by 12 PM, when most lines now required sleuthing to locate the ends, as they snaked back and forth and around each other. By 1 PM, Fulton St was a sea of people. Add together the 15 min+ wait for food at EACH truck, the limited real estate in the area, and very limited public seating, and it just stops being fun. As for the food trucks, I think it was a good representation. I'm sure everyone's got a truck they wished were there, but I liked the selection. Got some Kimchee Tacos, Desi kati roll, Korilla burrito and tacos, Red Hook Lobster Pound roll, Van Leeuwan ice cream, Frites 'n' Meats frites, and Green Pirate juice. Rickshaw dumplings and a Go Burger got sampled by others in the group. I'd loved to have tried more but the crowds cooled our enthusiasm to stay. If they do it again, I'll be there, but will make it opening hour that I show next time!

I like this one. $5 gets you a half-serving (including meat if you want it), which for me personally suffices as a meal. The sauces are good - no sugary nonsense here - and as a vodka sauce addict I'm glad to see that on there. I'd say stick with the pasta. The meatball hero I tried definitely had more bread than filling, which, yeah, what do you expect for $7, but the pasta is solid. There are some more ambitious dishes listed on the menu, but there's only so far I'm willing to go before I decide I'm better off at an actual restaurant... although I'm open to being surprised! Glad this truck is here and I'd encourage everyone to give it a try. It's at the corner of 3rd St and 6th Ave, right by the 7-11.

I didn't know this was a New York thing, but my boyfriend asked for onion sauce for our hot dogs. Apparently it's a thing in New York. The onion sauce is sweet and tangy. It is a sauce cooked with onions, ketchup, vinegar and spices. The hot dog itself wasn't anything special but the sauce was nice to try. One of those things you get to say you experienced but don't really miss when it's not around. For me it was a nice snack to fuel me for my adventures.
