“Boy was I surprised – this truck was incredible! Fresh lamb, whole grilled onions in every bite, only $8, and a new one for me – creamy, spicy green sauce lathered on top that way enhanced the plate.”

“My favorite green sauce in all the city is [Halal Kitchen on 14th and Union Square West](https://www.instagram.com/p/CpaDw2duy9Y/?hl=en&img_index=1) \- super creamy (unlike some that are watery), spicy, and flavorful.”

replying to u/clistmockingbird: I just used your map while in the city for a few days to find some good carts, I think Halal Kitchen ended up being my favorite but I also really liked Mido's. Keep up the great work!

“If you like green sauce, [Halal Kitchen](https://www.instagram.com/p/CpWInD-vG1T/?img_index=1) also near Union Square has the best by far - it's creamy, spicy, and delicious.”

replying to u/Unlikely-Guess3775: Good list - a couple of thoughts: \- For bagels, do you intend to go to Leo's or Leo Pizza? Leo Pizza in Williamsburg makes an amazing sourdough bagel on the weekends that they serve with melted beurre de baratte. Super good! \- For pizza, have a slice of potato pie at...you guessed it, Leo. They're actually a spin off of Ops, which I see is also on your list and is great. Farina is the new spot in Gowanus people are talking about at the moment too. Lala's is fun for New Haven style thin pizza served on a rooftop above a brewery in East Williamsburg. Da Radda in the East Village has some interesting Argentinian-style pizzas \- For Chinese, if you want egg tarts, Tai Pan is good as you mentioned, or Fay Da. If you're looking for a dumpling fix, my favorite is Nan Xiang XLB. They have the classic XLB of course as well as very good Shanghainese veg steamed dumplings. Their original location is in Flushing, but they recently opened a branch in Midtown as well \- It's not a halal cart, but the best falafel/shawarma in the city is at Zyara in Astoria. They have a very nice outdoor garden in the back as well

replying to u/CinderBK: I tried Indian King in fidi based on your IG rec. Was a block away from my (now former) job. It was by far the best halal I’ve ever had, and seeing there are others even higher rated has me excited. Planning to try the union square carts this week.

replying to u/thehalalguysguy: After trying almost [50 carts](https://www.instagram.com/thehalalguysguy/)...I'd agree. The meat is (expectedly) good and fresh given the amount of turnaround due to how busy it is, but the rice was disappointing. In general, no halal truck is worth even 30 minutes of waiting given how many great options there are with 0 minutes wait. I'd recommend [Midos](https://www.instagram.com/p/CinK1dnukis/?img_index=1), [Farooks](https://www.instagram.com/p/Cgr_sb_JSXy/?img_index=1), and the incredibly underrated [115th & Broadway](https://www.instagram.com/p/CKHLIX9HD4I/?img_index=1) truck way before telling anyone to wait 2+ hours for Adels.  Check out the [NYC halal map](https://www.google.com/maps/d/u/0/edit?mid=1GN_Ln0mCAU7UEgORg9YgwJ3Phb4jSu4_&ll=40.7562342430121%2C-73.98986493086332&z=13) and if there are others you like that I'm missing, definitely let me know!

replying to u/TheLunarVaux: Is this even a debate? I don't think anyone here will say Halal Guys. But yeah, none of them are worth standing in line for hours. Adels is great, but I've got a cart near where I work (18th and 6th) that's 95% as good and I've never waited more than 5-10 mins.
