Madison Square Eats!

Big Apple Bites

Writing this blog has brought something to my attention: in New York City, most activities revolve around food. Madison Square Eats is no exception. As I was walking to Eataly for dinner last Friday (yet another food-related activity), I ran right into Madison Square Eats...

This awesome foodtivity is open from 11AM-9PM every day until October 19th! So, Nat and I went for lunch the very next day. This outdoor market is essentially a cluster of food trucks representing 26 of the city's "most raved about eateries" (namely: Momofuku Milk Bar, Roberta's Pizza, and Red Hook Lobster Pound).

Our plan was to share one thing from each vendor - that didn't happen, so we strategically picked four.

Mexicue

At Mexicue, we chose the BBQ pulled-chicken sliders with chipotle mayo.

DELISH!

Evidently, Nat was a fan.

Mighty Balls

They had me at the name "Mighty Balls"

At Mighty Balls, you can choose between a meatball sub or just straight up meatballs. We chose the meatball trio with a pork, beef, and veggie-ball topped with tomato sauce and shredded Parmesan.

This plate was licked clean in less than a minute.

Calexico

Next up, some classic tacos from the Calexico cart...

Reminds me of the taco stands at home in So Cal!

We went for one Pollo Asado and one Carne Asada taco. Delishhhh. They also offered a variety of burritos, quesadillas, and burrito bowls - all of which were topped with their special "chipotle crack sauce".

Nom. Nom. Nom.

Momofuku Milk Bar

The whole time we were there, I had my eyes on the Momofuku dessert truck. They had everything from their famous "crack pie" to the "cereal milk" soft serve and "compost cookie". We indulged in the Birthday Cake Truffles...

Every bite of these mouthwatering truffles was delectable.

All in all, Madison Square Eats was a success. If you're in the area, make sure you go there and stuff your face.
