When your life is the continued everyday sameness of sitting in a cubicle, you tend to get off on even the slightest shred of drama in your vicinity. Luckily for excitement-starved Midtown office workers, there is a veritable Montague/Capulet-level food cart war afoot in the area surrounding your building.
That’s right, a Kosher food cart had the gall to infiltrate the street space near Rockefeller Center, where an already established halal cart operated by Egyptians has taken extreme issue with the affront. And while this type of rivalry is great for getting your heart rate up as you gossip about it in the break room with your fellow lifeless co-workers, it’s probably going to present a problem when you get caught in the Kosher vs. halal food crossfire. We’re talking an inevitable food fight of unprecedented proportions. So until this issue is resolved, you might want to stick to Chop’t.
