locus actus

what is food service today? a performance. how simple can a restaurant space be? reduced to the essential - the performative space. like a kind of compressed metal box, the proposal is to place a performative open kitchen in the middle of the space, where everything happens, fast and repetitive: griddle, fryer, smoke, grease, packaging, drinks. the interior space is an extension of the street; the stage is as if an american food trailer were parked inside.
