"The best halal cart in New York City is almost certainly the one closest to your apartment (or, maybe, whichever one you walk by when you're a little drunk). But The Halal Guys at 53rd and Sixth—which first opened in 1990 as a hot dog stand before changing their offerings to cater to Muslim taxi drivers—remains one of the city's most iconic street vendors, just as a steaming styrofoam platter of chicken over rice remains one of its most satisfying meals. The good news for the rest of the world is you can find Halal Guys just about everywhere now—they operate more than 100 brick-and-mortar locations in five countries. But it’ll always be ours.
