Our Joe DiStefano will eat just about anything plus he isn't afraid of the end of Subway lines—yeah, the perfect trademarks of a Serious Eater. He was just the right guy to be on VendrTV with host Dan Delaney, cart-hopping through Jackson Heights. They stayed near the intersection of 82nd and Roosevelt Avenue and never paid over $2 for any one goodie.

They started with the corn-based snacks esquitas and elotes, then hit up a lady selling tamales from a shopping cart, then a squash blossom and pork skin quesadila (the tortillas were made fresh on the spot), oh, and sure, why not a pork ear taco from Tacos Guicho. Finally, a sugary, fatty churro.

Joe has kept us plenty informed on what's up in Queens, and other ethnic hideaways in his Off the Beaten Path coverage, but it's fun to see and hear him crunch on screen. The video, after the jump.
