Anyone know of a food cart with a good chicken platter near the Citibank building?

I've become addicted since trying the King of Falafel and Shawarma:

The cart on 53rd and 6th Ave (Ave of the Americas) across from the Hilton. Lines stretch a block long late night. Chicken and rice or lamb and rice platter $6, sandwich $4, both awesome.

Excellent. I will have to check this out. I lived on the west coast for a few years and while I have found a handful of decent places I am always a little disappointed.

the cart's got a name: Platters.

About 2.5 years ago, my friends and I drove from central NJ to midtown at 4am to eat here. It was a Friday night, and the line was a block down. Damn, now I am craving platters.
