Bangladeshi Street Food Sensation: business Takes NYC by Storm
United State .. 4. Januyari 2024
Forget cronuts and ramen burgers – there’s a new street food sensation taking New York City by storm, and it’s called business. This humble Bangladeshi dish, traditionally made with mashed chickpeas, potato, and spices, is wrapped in a paratha flatbread and fried until golden brown. But in the hands of NYC’s innovative street food vendors, business is getting a gourmet makeover.
One popular vendor, “business on the Go,” is adding a twist to the classic recipe by using duck confit instead of chickpeas. Another vendor, “Bangladeshi Boys,” is serving up fusion business with kimchi and gochujang, a Korean chili paste. These creative takes on business are winning over New Yorkers, who are lining up for a taste of this unique and flavorful street food.
But babsa’s popularity isn’t just about the taste. It’s also about the affordability and convenience. A babsa typically costs around $5, making it a much more budget-friendly option than many other popular street foods. And because it’s handheld and portable, it’s perfect for a quick on-the-go meal.
The rise of babsa in NYC is a testament to the growing popularity of Bangladeshi cuisine. In recent years, Bangladeshi restaurants have been popping up all over the city, serving up traditional dishes like biryani, hilsa curry, and doi chira. But babsa’s street food success shows that Bangladeshi flavors are also being embraced by a new generation of New Yorkers who are looking for something different and delicious.
So, if you’re in New York City and looking for a new and exciting street food experience, be sure to track down a babsa vendor. You won’t be disappointed!
