Queens Night Market To Launch Rockefeller Center Pop-Up
Midtown Manhattan is about to get a taste of Queens.

NEW YORK — Midtown Manhattan is about to get a taste of Queens.
The Queens Night Market is bringing some of its most popular food vendors to Rockefeller Center for a three-week pop-up starting at the end of July, founder John Wang announced Tuesday.
"It's a chance to test out the area's appetite for unique global offerings, and also a chance for some of our dedicated vendors to profit from all the passion and hard work they bring to the Queens Night Market," Wang said in a statement.

Dubbed "The OUTPOST by Queens Night Market," the pop-up's vendors will sell meal-size portions of diverse dishes like Burmese keema palatas, Jamaican jerk chicken and Antiguan Saltfish Balls.
The Queens Night Market's $6 price cap won't apply to the Rockefeller Center pop-up, so prices will vary by dish.
