Paige wrote about the
chile relleno torta from Tacos Morelos yesterday, but I've got to say, of the sandwiches we tried, the

We've already written about the tacos from
Tacos Morelos, an awesome taco cart in the East Village that's little brother to a cart in Williamsburg and one in Queens, but they've got sandwiches as well. One of the selections was a

In addition to tacos, the

Next up in mobile cupcake purveyors in this great city of ours:
Cupcake Crew. Of all the cupcakers I have met so far, Frankie, owner of the Cupcake Crew truck, seems the least likely man for the job. A friendly, talkative man with the accent and demeanor of Joe Pesci in My Cousin Vinny, Frankie was not the frontman I had come to expect in the cupcake world.
