I like the Saberett at Fresh Meadows mall, 188th and Horace Harding Expressway. Chicken kabob and bbq sauce ftw.

Another one isnt my favorite but im sure some people know it. I call it the "greasy truck". Its in between Cardozo HS and Queensboro Community College. It sells breakfast and lunch.

theres 2 over on 53rd and 6th at night, the famous one and then there's shendy's. to be honest, I have always liked shendy's stand better, but most will say the other is better. Plus you can't go wrong waiting for 5 minutes when the famous truck usually has atleast an hour wait in the late night, especially thurs fri sat

do u remember the name of the place, or the street, and is it a truck or a bodega? i always try n find new Chimi spots closer to me, casue the heights is too far, even tho those are my fave, so i stick to the ones on 108th to save the trip
