PrintHow Do You Eat Street Food? One Grad Student's Answer
One Pratt student, Ali Pulver, has tackled a problem so many urbanites face—where, on a busy city block, can you eat a street food lunch?—and devoted her graduate thesis to it. Midtown Lunch reports that she's come up with a "Hydrantable" (pictured left), a tabletop that fits over any fire hydrant, and a "Lunch Shelf" (pictured right), with super-strong magnets to attach to any metal post. Consider your juggling problems solved.
(We won't vouch for the legality of either of these. But great ideas, no?)

love the lunch shelf, but the hydrant table gives me that queasy feeling I get if I'm eating a hot dog and I see a pile of dog poop - too close to where the dogs pee all the time for me to want my food there.
