Brucha Caterer Truck

I was overjoyed to find out that a new food truck had moved downstairs from where I work. I enthusiastically hopped on & off the elevator, exited my building and turned the corner of 34^th street and 10^th Ave. And there sat the glorious Sub on Wheels truck.
Aside from a daily special which can be found in detail on their website, they also have an early bird special — if you purchase a sandwich between 11:30am and 12:30pm, you get a dollar off. That puts most of their gigantic subs around $ 6.
Call me adventurous, but on my first go, I ordered the Thursday-​only chulent & kishka special. Chulent is like a thick beany and beefy chili without the spicy kick. It’s pretty good in its own right, though. They were nice enough to let me sample the chulent before I committed. Sold.
I also ordered a potato knish — it’s not your standard hot dog stand knish — it’s better. Although it’s microwaved, you can really taste the difference in quality. It’s got a more pastry-​like crust, and the filling is seasoned rather well.
Apparently, they will be alternating between this new location (10^th Avenue between 33^rd & 34^th Streets) and their original location. So check their website before you venture out!

I had heard about a Kosher sandwich truck in midtown and was excited by the prospect of Chickies like sandwiches in my neighborhood. So I walked over to 9^th Avenue where the Sub on Wheels truck is parked between 32^nd and 33^rd. There it was, an actual food truck, with a Glatt Kosher Certification from a Rabbi in Monsey who my friend Ariela says is legit. Their menu consists of all different kinds of sandwiches, including Philly steak, deli, and chicken as well as salads, hot dogs, and soups. They were advertising their daily special which was soup and half a schnitzel sandwich for $ 5.00. FIVE DOLLARS! I couldn’t pass that up so I ordered it with Zucchini soup. I walked over to the Post Office on 8^th and sat on the steps to eat (very Gossip Girl, I know). The soup was thick and creamy with chunks of zucchini in it. It was very good. The sandwich itself was a little disappointing — I guess I was expecting some kind of sauce, but it was just a piece of schnitzel on a club roll, with some veges. I am eager to go back and try some of the other options.

I intended to go somewhere else for lunch but the appearance of a new truck changed my plans. On 9^th Ave between 33 and 32^nd St Brucha Caterer parks its «Sub on Wheels» serving up a long list of sandwiches, platters, and side dishes.
I ordered the chicken schnitzel, which was listed as costing $ 7.75 but they charged me under $ 7 and had it ready for me quickly. It was really really large, half filled me up. The sandwich came with huge strips of juicy breaded chicken, lettuce, tomato, onion, Russian dressing and a pickle. What makes this sandwich different from all other sandwiches? Its the pickle. They insert a real full sour pickle, none of this half ass half sour or sweet or sandwich style cucumber that is usually found inside sandwiches or burgers. I take pickles very seriously, ask anyone, and a find like this makes me very happy. All pickles aside, this is a schnitzel worth getting.
The home style Jew sides include potato kugel, kishka (if you are adventurous), chulent (on Thursdays), and whatever beautiful thing a pastrami egg roll is.
The completely kosher truck has been around for over a month and is open Monday through Thursday from 1130 – 4.
