Sign Up to Attend this Fun, Festive Event.
What is a “Pop-Up Dinner?” It is an underground, random dinner held in a random location. “Pop-Up” dinners are happening in big cities nationwide and have been happening at UConn. “Pop-Up” restaurants have been popular since the 2000s in Britain and Australia. “Pop-Up” dinners typically make use of social media to alert diners of their undisclosed location of the meal. In large cities “Pop-Up restaurants” are an effective way for young chefs to gain exposure of their skills in the culinary field. “Pop-Up” restaurants have been hailed as useful for chefs, allowing them to utilize underused kitchen facilities. Here at UConn, Dining Services utilizes this concept in a fun way to show off the culinary talents of our catering staff.
