A quick look inside the Brooklyn Dumpling Shop, opening next month on 1st Avenue

Brooklyn Dumpling Shop is opening next month at 131 First Ave. (aka 82 St. Mark's Place), according to its website. 

The pandemic has pushed back the opening from this past July.

As previously reported, Brooklyn Dumpling Shop will feature an automat-type arrangement for its 30-plus varieties. From a more technical standpoint, per its website:
We're the first to enable a Zero Human Interaction (Z.H.I.). We're revolutionizing Q.S.R. (Quick Service Restaurants) with our proprietary technology and will be one of the first to launch hands-free self-ordering kiosks...

And if you'd like a video explainer...


While the shop may feature some high-techery, the interior will have a partly old-school look... EVG contributor Derek Berg caught a glimpse inside the other day... and spotted this wall photo of Audrey Hepburn inside the Horn and Hardart automat circa 1952. (The original photo is by Lawrence Fried) ...
Workers gutted this single-level structure on the corner ... dividing the storefront into several spaces. The other new tenant here is the Japanese health-food cafe AO Bowl, now in soft-open mode.

The previous single occupant, Foot Gear Plus, closed in July 2018 after 40 years in business.

    Thought about this place the other day and thought it would never ever open.

    I wonder how much it costs to license the photo for that

    This 'Jetsons' bullshit will be out-a-here in 4-6 months.
