Any skewer on the cart · The chicken varieties

Going? Tell them MUSEENYC sent you. It's not a discount and there's nothing to redeem — we just want them to know where you heard it.

Charcoal, a hand fan, and a stack of skewers — the cumin-and-chili street grill that Chinatown has been quietly perfecting for longer than most of the sit-down versions charging three times as much have existed.

What to know

Honestly, any stick is the right order. Pick whatever meat you like the look of; ours is all the chicken varieties, straight down the list. Cash is the safe assumption, there is nowhere to sit, and hours depend on the person running it more than any posted schedule.
