In his continuing campaign to bring good eats at good value to New Yorkers, chef Adam Perry Lang of Daisy May's BBQ has launched a fleet of chili carts. Currently two of the planned six are out selling, as the Times' describes, "bowls o' red":
12-ounce cup with a flour tortilla and a garnish of shredded cheese and sour cream, all for $6...made with cubes of beef in a forcefully warming sauce that blends three or four kinds of fresh, dried, roasted and smoked chilis. There are no tomatoes. Beans and rice are optional.
So if you're anywhere near 39th and Broadway or 50th and Avenue of the Americas, you're in luck. Or, if you're too scared of the outside, rally up your office to order up some Daisy May's BBQ ribs that Gothamist loves. Daisy May's BBQ also has a Super Bowl package: For $20, chili, ribs, barbecued chicken, coleslaw and potato salad, enough for four people. Contact Daisy May's BBQ at 212-977-1500.
