Public narratives

"Pop-up outdoor eat-and-drink spaces"


1 - Urban Space "Broadway Bites" - Cultural and ready to eat.

The story of Broadway Bites is to bring the community of New York and its visitors in one place to eat, drink and mingle. It pops up for one month in fall and winter and showcases a diverse variety of cuisines including Korean, Italian, Jewish, American, Russian bite size meals and more. In one go, the public can try many cuisines and get immersed in a culture of quick bites and eating on their feet.  This outdoor venue is sharing a narrative of different cultures and the culture of consuming food and drinks in different regions of the world. There are new talents coming in every time, to tell their story. Since it is a pop up experience, it is only available twice a year, and the rest of the year it is just a park. The only thing that is left is memory of Broadway Bites and if you missed it, you have to wait until the next time.

2 - Union Square "Farmers Market" - Healthy and raw.



The story of the farmers market is about supporting local farms by providing the New York community with organic and natural produce. The sustainably sourced fresh produce is perishable and meant to be 'brought today, gone today'. The narrative here is indirectly telling the public about raw and natural eating habits in the fast moving environment. This venue is targeting  those who cook, like local restaurant chefs, healthy eaters, families.  Tourists are welcome but mostly for exploring or buying fruit, baked goods or non perishable produce, e.g. lavender bags. This pop-up market is on Union Square every Monday, Wednesday, Friday and Saturday every week throughout the whole year. This makes it more accessible and throughout its history, the market has made its impact on the public of New York.
