NYC SUPPORT HAS BEEN AWESOME

Hi Everyone -
We did not mean to go stealth on everyone over the last few days, we have tried to respond to a few emails but they have been overwhelming.
Our primary concern is for Mohamed's (Moody) health.
We have been keeping him up to speed on all the support we have been recieving via twitter, email & voice mails.
He asked that we tweet out to everyone his appreciation and that he can't wait to see everyone again...he really misses the truck, we all miss the truck but we are all happy that we have each other's company...we are all happy that we can talk to each other....we are just happy it was not a lot worse.

NYC IS THE BEST PLACE ON EARTH
Fellow Food Truckers such as Schnitzel & Things, Mexicue, Rickshaw & others have offered to donate a percentage of today's sales to help rebuild Frites'N'Meats.
Our fans, Food Truckers in LA & some folks we never even meant have offered to help and want us back on the road.
This is why NYC is really the best place in the world...in the time of need everyone wants to help, so much so that you don't even know how to accept all that help.

A close friend of ours opened up a paypal account to accept donations and set up an email account for inquiries on the rebuilding efforts, it is fritesnmeatsdonations@yahoo.com We believe this is the best way to accept support from everyone, as it allows for transparency & accountability.
We cannot just accept funds from people & not have it accounted for.
We will have a third party account for all the funds received and confirm they are used to rebuild Frites'N'Meats.
In the event funds are left over, we would donate them to local charities & schools we have donated to in the past.

We will provide additional detail as time passes by & we can't wait to see you all again.

Thank you everyone for all the love & support.
Hiassam, Ali & Moody.

THANK YOU EVERYONE

Hi Everyone -

I take it everyone heard what happened today...we are at a loss for words.
The accident that occurred could have been so much worse...yes the truck is destroyed but everyone is ok. Mohamed, aka Moody will be in the hospital for a while but he will be OK; everyone else is fine.

I want thank that individual who answered my tweet this afternoon and provided detail of my brother's whereabouts when I had no idea what was happening...I can't recall his name as everything was a blur for a while but if you are reading this - I owe you one!

We want to Thank Everyone for their warm wishes & prayers...We want to Thank all our fans, twitter & most of all, The FDNY, NYPD and the Emergency responders that came to the scene - THANK YOU ALL! God Bless all the responders at the scene - Thank You!

Thanks Again
Hiassam, Ali & Mohamed

False alarm on the weather last week....thought it was spring...a few more weeks I guess. We are sticking with the salads though (maybe they will make the sun come out).
Our House Salad & Spring Salad will be available again this week.

A few weeks ago, a couple of our avid twitter followers (you know who you are) recommended ingredients for a new Burger Of The Week; we took it under consideration & the following BOTW was born....The Neapolitan - Seasoned Grassfed Angus Patty, Sauteed Mushrooms, Mozarella & Homemade Pesto Sauce - we know it's gonna be Delish!!!
The Maker's Mark continues to flow from KY. The Maker's Mark Kobe Burgers will be available again this week in SoHo :).

We will also have our delicious Homemade Dessert Treats!
