My favorite are the halal chicken and lamb carts, particularly the one on 53rd and 3rd outside of Vong. The gentleman is so nice and does the best chicken/lamb mixed plate, I go there every day after work, YUMMM!!!

So many people picked the pumpkin cheesecake so, even though I don't really like pumpkin or cheesecake, since my sisters do I think its a must for dessert!

All the recipes sound so good! I love "easy" menu for its simplicity because to me thatis what it is all about, letting ingredients speak for themselves. I also think the drop biscuits sound so yummy!!!
Cook's Illustrated's Best Drop Biscuits
Biscuits are my absolutely favorite so I love this recipe!!! So simply and yet so versatile! Heat up with some butter, jam, nutella or eat with gravy or cranberry sauce. Thanksgiving leftovers? Use a biscuit to make a little sandwich, or use the leftover to make a little potpie and use biscuit as top cover, even brush with olive oil as a makeshift panini! YUM!
How to Roast a Turkey
I have to say that in my opinion basting is key! keep checking back every 15-20 mins to take the liquid from the pan that the turkey is sitting in and pour it over the bird, this reinfuses the flavors and keeps the bird moist, not to mention giving the skin that extra flavor and crisp! Timing your turkey depends on the weight which is usually on the wrapping, the calculations are pretty standard and can be found online. For even better taste, slowly slide your fingers between the skin and the flesh, separating them but not making any or too many holes, pour olive oil and spread around with your hands, then do the same which your herb mixture (suggest rosemary, oregano, salt, pepper, ...), you can slice up some garlic and put in there too. YUM!
Easy Thanksgiving Menu
Simplicity is key! This menu is my favorite for sure as it lets the ingredients speak for themselves. Its earthy, solid, good, home-style cooking, isn't that what Thanksgiving is all about!

I love a good gyro but a delicious carnitas taco is always my first pick

Not to knock composite lamb on spit, which has it's time and place in the pantheon of delicious street foods, but in Greece, that rotating log of lamb is made from real slices of shaved, juicy, tasty meat. No ground stuff there. Best gyro in my life.

Start off with chocolate dumplings from the rickshaw truck followed by paneer tikka kati roti slathered with some raita-chili sauce from the indian cart. then cooled down with a pavlova from the dessert truck!

Pani puri, definitely. When I was a kid, my parents forbid me from eating Indian street food... which just made it taste even better when an older cousin would take me!

My favorite streetfood is the one being served within smelling distance.
Whether it's kanom krok in Bangkok, merguez in Fez, bhang lassi in Varanasi, or arepas under the el tracks. I love it all. It's the most accessible way to understand a culture's belly.

Anything from a halal cart. But I also love those little mango flowers on a stick that vendors sell from shopping carts up in Washington Heights.
