  • By Gunther Hirschfelder, Manuel Trummer There Is Scarcely An
    by Gunther Hirschfelder, Manuel Trummer There is scarcely an aspect of daily cultural practice which illustrates the processes of transformation in European culture as clearly as daily nutrition. Indeed, securing the latter was essential for the daily fight for survival right up to the mid-19th century, with large sections of the population frequently being confronted with harvest failures and food shortages resulting from wars, extreme weather, pests, fire, changes in the agrarian order, and population growth. Consequently, food and drink were central both in daily life and in the celebration of feasts, and provided an opportunity for social differentiation. The hope for better nutrition was the pri- mary impetus for many migration processes and a canvas onto which desires were projected. The "Land of Cockaigne" motif, which can be traced from the Frenchman Fabliau de Coquaignes in the 13th century to Erich Kästner's (1899–1974) children's book "Der 35. Mai oder Konrad reitet in die Südsee" (1931), is a classic example of this. TABLE OF CONTENTS 1. Introduction 2. The End of Medieval Cuisine? 3.

  • An Investigation Into the Availability of Horsemeat in Belgium, France and the Netherlands
    An investigation into the availability of horsemeat in Belgium, France and the Netherlands October 2012 An investigation into the availability of horsemeat in Belgium, France and the Netherlands Introduction Each year, several hundred thousand tonnes of horsemeat are imported to the European Union, primarily from Canada, Mexico, Brazil, Argentina and Uruguay. This is in addition to the tens of thousands of horses that are slaughtered for human consumption within the EU itself. To gain greater insight into the European horsemeat market, Humane Society International (HSI) conducted a retail investigation in three EU Member States where horsemeat is commonly eaten, namely Belgium, France and the Netherlands. The fieldwork was conducted in June 2012. The aim of this study was to determine the availability and range of horsemeat and products containing horsemeat sold in these countries. It also sought to ascertain whether and what proportion of horsemeat products are labelled with information concerning the meat’s country of origin. Data concerning the price, weight and composition of the horsemeat products were also collected. Horsemeat production and trade in Belgium, France and the Netherlands The retail and consumption of horsemeat in Belgium, France and the Netherlands must be situated in the broader context of these three EU Member States’ involvement in the global horsemeat trade, both in terms of their role as major importers of horsemeat as well as the producers thereof. Each year, several thousand horses are slaughtered domestically in Belgium, France and the Netherlands. Not all of these animals have been necessarily raised in the country where they meet their end.

Save the Former Horn & Hardart Automat (Broadway & W. 104th Street, Manhattan) View Current Signatures - Sign the Petition To: New York City Landmarks Preservation Commission We, the undersigned, support the preservation of one of the last surviving automat structures in New York City. Located on Broadway and West 104th Street in Manhattan, this joyous Art-Deco survivor was designed by F.P. Platt & Brother and built in 1930. Telltale signs of its former use include the fa�ade�s monumental, arched show window (the better to reveal the technological marvels within) and ravishing polychrome terra-cotta ornamentation, which remain largely intact despite later storefront remodelings (for images, please go to http://www.landmarkwest.org/advocacy/automat.html). Coin-operated glass-and-chrome wonders, Horn & Hardart�s Automats revolutionized the way Americans ate when they opened up in Philadelphia and New York in the early twentieth century. In a country where the industrial revolution had just taken hold, eating at a restaurant with self-serve vending machines rather than waitresses and Art-Deco architecture instead of stuffy dining rooms was an unforgettable experience. The Automat served freshly made food for the price of a few coins, and no one made a better cup of coffee. By the peak of its popularity � from the Great Depression to the post-war years � the Automat was more than an inexpensive place to buy a good meal; it was a culinary treasure and an emblem of the times.

  • Horn & Hardart Automat-Cafeteria Building
    Landmarks Preservation Commission January 30, 2007, Designation List 385 LP-2192 HORN & HARDART AUTOMAT - CAFETERIA BUILDING, 2710-2714 Broadway (aka 228-234 West 104th Street), Manhattan. Built 1930, F[rederick]. P[utnam]. Platt & Brother [Charles Carsten Platt], architects; Atlantic Terra Cotta Co., terra cotta. Landmark Site: Borough of Manhattan Tax Map Block 1875, Lot 46. On June 27, 2006, the Landmarks Preservation Commission held a public hearing on the proposed designation as a Landmark of the Horn & Hardart Automat-Cafeteria Building and the proposed designation of the related Landmark Site (Item No. 1). A second public hearing was held on December 12, 2006 (Item No. 3). The latter hearing had been duly advertised in accordance with the provisions of law. Thirty speakers testified in favor of designation, including representatives of State Assemblyman Daniel O’Donnell, Manhattan Borough President Scott M. Stringer, Councilmember Melissa Mark-Viverito, Councilmember Tony Avella, Manhattan Community Board 7, Muncipal Art Society of New York, Historic Districts Council, Landmark West!, Art Deco Society of New York, Friends of Terra Cotta, West 102nd and 103rd Streets Block Association, West 104th Street Block Association, and Marianne Hardart (great-granddaughter of the company founder). The owner and three of the owner’s representatives testified against designation. In addition, the Commission has received a number of communications supporting designation, including those of Congressman Charles B. Rangel, New York Landmarks Conservancy, Modern Architecture Working Group, and Sarah M. Henry (Deputy Director/Chief Curator, Museum of the City of New York). Summary The 3-story, limestone-clad Horn & Hardart Automat-Cafeteria Building at 2710-2714 Broadway (at West 104th Street), a distinctive small-scale commercial structure executed in the Art Deco style, is one of the best surviving examples of the popular chain restaurants that proliferated in the city during the first three decades of the 20th century.
