CHELSEA — Bored with Midtown's food offerings?

If you work anywhere near Penn Station, a garden set aside for food trucks is spicing up the area's options.

The venue, with open-air seating, chess boards and four different food trucks per day — dishing out everything from cheese steaks and Vietnamese fare to succulent lobster — just opened across from the former James J. Farley Post Office.

The food truck court, called Shipping and Receiving, located at 333 33rd St., is open Mondays through Fridays and hosts two food trucks for lunch and another two for dinner. 

The trucks are parked from 11 a.m. to 3 p.m. and the dinner shift runs from 4 to 8 p.m, according to the garden's website. 

Some familiar food trucks will take turns parking at Shipping and Receiving like Carl's SteaksLa Belle Torte and Chef Samir's.

Other food trucks on the schedule include Deli & Dogz Pastrami Truck, Toum, Ponti Rosi, Papaya King, NY Lobster Club, Sweet Chili and Curry N' Bites.

Visit Shipping and Receiving's website for a schedule.
