The Concrete Elite: New York’s twenty best food carts ranked, in order.
Published by Haseeb June 28th, 2007 in Current NewsNew York magazine as recently compiled a list of top 20 ranked food carts in New York City, ranked by New York Magazine. The following is a list of all of the halal-carts that have made the top-20: (*-unconfirmed)
3. SAMMY’S HALAL
73rd St. at Broadway, Jackson Heights
4. KHAN’S
73rd St. at Broadway, Jackson Heights
14. KWIK MEAL*
45th St. nr. Sixth Ave.
16. NY DOSAS (vegetarian)
Washington Sq. S. at Sullivan St.
17. HALAL CHICKEN AND GYRO
53rd St. nr. Sixth Ave.
It’s interesting to note that the infamous Chicken Guy, which used to be the top carts destination in the tri-state area, is only ranked 17th. The quality of the food has definitely decreased over the years.

























Whoever wrote this is wack! they don’t know what they are talking about.
so, strictly out of curiousity, is xinjiang kebab not halal?
Brother im sorry to come to know that you dont like our food anymore. But as a muslim brother you should not make others feel like its not good. As muslims we should encourage each others efforts with productive advice not go publicly and try to hurt someones rizq ( which is only from Allah
). I used to really enjoy your blog, looks like you dont like my food
Masalam
Hamed…Denial is a river in egypt…loooooooooool…..stop blaming haseeb for stating the obvious…
lol, poor hamed .
salaams,
Haseeb, you may want to note that there is a pretty good halal cart right behind the masjid, Islamic Center of New York, over on 96th and 3rd Ave. the food keeps getting better over there.
Someone told me that the cart was sold, not sure if this is true or not but just stating what I heard.
