    “Everyone wants me to open another Taïm,” says Einat Admony, the Israeli chef of Taïm and Balaboosta, who has so far resisted their entreaties.

Thanks to a nimble cook and some precision frying, the truck dispenses well-constructed sandwiches and sprightly platters of the same exceptional quality as the West Village storefront—plus a new quinoa-and-chickpea salad that is actually bolstered, and not done in, as these things often are, by the inclusion of cranberries. Fresh smoothies, too, including the signature date-lime-banana. Newly launched dinner service is a relative secret, crowdwise—find the truck’s whereabouts on Twitter.
