Rahman's Kwik Meal - Lamb-lovers' Mecca
Vendy Award Nominee 2005Location: 45th Street at 6th Avenue, SW corner
Vendor's Name: Mohammed Rahmen & assistants
Hours: 11am - 7pm
Days: 5? 7?
Dishes: Lamb, Chicken, Shrimp, Falafel; sandwiches and platters
Prices: $2.25 chicken mini-roll through $7.50 shrimp platter; $5.75 lamb on pita
By all accounts, the lamb is the star player at this cart. First-hand experience bears up the legend. I have never tasted lamb more tender, more artfully seasoned, or more delicately showcased than the lamb-in-pita I enjoyed from this cart. The slim roll may not be the most awesome to behold, but trust me, once you put it in your mouth you will know it is well worth the price.

Glad you made it to Kwik Meal. I just discovered it a few weeks ago after working in the neighborhood for years. It's become my new favorite. I think I'd get dinged for this from cartsnobs, but I really like his take on the cheesesteak sandwich.

Nice. I usually dismiss cheesesteaks out-of-hand, because I've had so many lousy versions, but I'm certainly willing to give his a try. I also want to try his shrimp.

You haven't been able to find it at 45th and 6th? Maybe he's taking a summer vacation! Try back in a week or two, I guess...
