La Piraña Lechonera
Angel Jimenez — machete in hand — carves whole roast pig from a converted trailer in a Mott Haven lot, weekends only, like he has for decades. The closest thing NYC has to a Puerto Rican lechonera on the island.
Order: Lechon with crispy cuerito (skin), arroz con gandules, and whatever salad Angel insists you try.

Makina Cafe (truck)
Eden Gebre Egziabher's Eritrean-Ethiopian truck — the city's only one — spooning spiced stews over injera-lined bowls. New Sunnyside storefront, but the truck still roams.
Order: The combo platter with doro wat and misir (red lentils) over injera; ask for extra awaze.

Uncle Gussy's
Family-run Greek truck feeding the Park Avenue lunch crowd since the 1970s, with the brothers cooking recipes from their mom. Forty-deep lines on a nice day and worth it.
Order: Pork souvlaki platter with lemon potatoes and tzatziki; the chicken pita is the fast play.
