articles like this should not be in wikipedia. They're basically travel guides. Put them on wikitravel, or Yelp. Honey-badger24 (talk) 03:29, 8 January 2021 (UTC)[reply]

  • Keep Wikitravel is a commercial site which exists to sell advertising and make money for its owners. The WMF project is Wikivoyage. That's not relevant either because it has a bizarre rule that a place can only have an article if you can spend the night there. So, that would exclude this notable street vendor, which seems as notorious as the The Original Soupman. Wikipedia is better than those narrow, restrictive sites because it is comprehensive. Because it includes all types of topic, Wikipedia's internal linking works efficiently and well. This then means that its search engine rating is high and so people use it. So, if it works, don't fix it. If you want to write articles in Wikitravel, Wikivoyage or Yelp then please go over there and do so. Andrew🐉(talk) 11:19, 8 January 2021 (UTC)[reply]
  • Strong Keep I started this article, it's a well-known restaurant and has been well-referenced. Victor Grigas (talk) 18:46, 8 January 2021 (UTC)[reply]
