Kwik Meal on 45th

Checked out Rahman's Kwik Meal street cart on 45th street, just west of 6th avenue. Rahman is a Bangladeshi who learned to cook in Toronto and was formerly the chef at the Russian Tea Room. Quite the international character as you can gather.

I had the lamb which was excellent although I was a little disappointed in the size. I was still a bit hungry after lunch. Perhaps I'm used to some of the other vendors that serve lesser quality meat, but the portions seemed a little small, particularly when you consider Rahman's lamb is $2.50 more than other vendors. I will say the quality was far superior to the ubiquitous Halal vendors in Midtown.

Been here? What do you think? What is the best street food in Midtown, in Manhattan?
