CHECK OTHER REVIEWS FOR THIS PLACE:
Following the huge success of The Junkyard last summer, the same people behind this unique concept are cooking up something extraordinary, this summer will witness yet another extraordinary hotspot... You will be the first to know... stay tuned. Below is a small reminder of last year's popup concept, just to entice you to what more is coming...
Let us remember together last years concept:
The Junkyard, or like others call it, the Pop-up Container, Beirut’s new Wonderland as the people behind, Food for Thought, the place calls it.
You walk into a beautiful junk yard. How is using these two words together even possible? I will tell you how... Imagine a wall made of wine and beer bottles, an engine turned table, barrels are used as the bar, a container is the kitchen, a bread toaster on a poll acts like business card holder, empty cans and water bottles dangle down as chandeliers, walls a are artistically covered with graffiti, a Pétanque field, an industrial wooden floor, a couple of old couches, an old motorcycle brought in from the cars cemetery across the street, old bulky TV sets showing Tom & Jerry old cartoons, sea floaters dispatched randomly and so much more. On one side there’s the Mona Lisa supervising over the whole logistics while CCTV Graffiti camera does the same from the other side.
