Anthony Bourdain has done it again.
In case you haven’t heard, Anthony Bourdain is opening Bourdain Market at Pier 57 in New York City by 2019, and it will be assembling “a dream list of chefs, operators, street food and hawker legends from around the world in hopes of bringing them together in one New York City space.”
The social media accounts of Bourdain Market have been posting their scouting efforts and inspiration hunts at various food markets in Asia and other parts of the world. Here are some of them.
According to Eater NYC, the market will have over 100 food stalls staffed by vendors around the world in a 155,000 square feet area. It will most likely be the largest food hall in New York City when it finally opens. Think authentic and chaotic Asian markets, Bourdain Market will open until late night and will even feature karaoke and film screenings.
So far, Bourdain has already signed on Sabina Bandera, the operator of the La Guerrerense tostada cart from Mexico, as well as Geyland Claypot Rice from Singapore.
The market space will be created by design team, Roman & Williams and will reportedly cost $60 million. A few art renderings have already been published as well.
We are beyond excited. Follow @bourdainmarket on Instagram or register on their app to get all the latest updates!
[UPDATED: The market was originally scheduled to open in 2017.]
