Tastee Express

I happen to stop by this cart while shopping at home depot.  the food was fresh and actually tasty and the worker was very friendly.  I will stop by again and try their burgers which looked very good.

Came here to home depot and I saw this foodstand truck I was kind of hungry so I  got a chicken over rice it was very good

Tastee Express is a trailer set up outside of Home Depot that serves what typical carts in the city sell, breakfast sandwiches, burgers, gyros, cheesesteaks, lamb/chicken platters, and a few things that you don't usually find such as mozzarella sticks and knishes.  It seems that there are 4 locations now, all on long island.  Since i love street meat, and you don't really see carts on long island, i was very intrigued.  My dad shops at this home depot location often and actually stopped at the stand for breakfast once.  He said his bacon, egg, and cheese was really good, and pretty cheap.  

When i was home last weekend I had the opportunity to stop by here and check it out.  I went with my usual, chicken and lamb over rice.  It took a pretty long time to cook, which was fine with me, hoping that maybe it was fresh.  When i was first handed the bag i was very happy with the size and weight of the container.  Once i got back to my car and opened the box, the first thing i noticed was the type of rice.  I'm not sure what kind of rice it is, but i'm not a fan.  It was a type of white rice, but not regular white rice.  Whatever is it, it's not good.  The salad portion of the meal was very good.  The lettuce and tomatoes seems very fresh and crispy.  The meat wasn't bad, but both the lamb and chicken could've used some seasoning.  It didn't seem like there was any on the chicken and just a little on the lamb.  I'm used to the city carts where they season the crap out of the meat.  I really enjoyed their white sauce.  It seemed like it was actually yogurt based and not the mayo or ranch base that you find in city.  The combo was $7, which for the size wasn't bad at all, but the taste just wasn't there.  I definitely want to go back and check out some other items like their breakfast sandwiches and chili cheeseburger.
