sammy, of sammy's halal

so yesterday I managed to snag an exclusive interview with Sammy, proprietor of four halal "street meat" food carts around nyc. I had the combo meal about a week ago and had just recommended it to my sister yesterday so it was on my mind. On the way home, I stopped off at the Jackson Heights location (the original, apparently) for the lamb and chicken combo and spoke with the 2006 Vendy award winner. The complete transcript follows:

Me: So, uh, lemme get a combo.
Sammy: You want the chicken and lamb together?
Me: Yeah.
Sammy: Hot sauce, white sauce?
Me: Yeah, extra hot sauce.
Sammy: You sure?
Me: Yeah.
Sammy: Okay my friend, five dollars.
Me: Thanks a lot.

I gave him my money and was back on the subway in less than five minutes. Okay, so it wasn't really an interview and if anything, it was him asking me the questions. But regardless, a pleasant interaction. I suggest you all "interview" him yourselves; his cart is located at 73rd Street and Broadway, less than a block away from the Roosevelt Avenue-74th Street subway station (E, F, V, R, G and 7 trains).
