Changes in the Distribution of Gastronomic Services in the City Centre
Gastronomy and Urban SpaceThe Urban Book Series(2020)
Abstract
This chapter underlines the key role of a city centre in urban space gastronomy. It offers a four-step perspective, ranging from urban to local. First, the example of Saint Petersburg (Russia) shows that gastronomy reflects the major phases of urban growth. Here, eating establishments are used as a proxy for the city centre. Second, the example of Warsaw's Srodmiescie district in Poland indicates the constant growth in catering services in this central borough since 1994. Using density analysis, it shows gastronomy hotspots in the centre of the city. Next, the case of Krakow (Poland) focuses on the centre of a historical tourist city, where there has been both quantitative growth in the number of eating establishments and a change in their distribution. The last examples offer a local perspective, specifically they concern the district of Zoliborz in Warsaw, Poland, and the neighbourhood of Podskali in Prague, the Czech Republic, which are near the city centre.
