At
some restaurants, you sit down and they cook you some food. At others,
you pick up the food and take it home. Now there's a restaurant in
Helsinki that turns that idea on its ear. Take In doesn't even have a
kitchen, but you sit down to eat take out food ordered from any of 20
other restaurants.
With no kitchen, guests at Take In
choose from a curated selection of dishes from roughly 20 restaurants
via an app called Wolt, the other sponsor of the pop-up. Guests eat
their dinner in the Take In dining room. Take In offers bar service, and
“hosting service,” helping get orders to the correct table. Guests who
just want to drop in for a drink are welcome to do so. While it seems
like a concept designed for solo diners, a Wolt spokeperson tells
Monocle that the restaurant offers a solution for groups who can’t
decide on what they all want to eat. The Take In pop-up started at the
beginning of November, and will run through April 2.
It sounds like a fancier version of what we'd call a food court.
