Abstract
This paper looks at the composition of labor force in the restaurant industry in New York
City. The expansion of the restaurant industry in NYC coincides with the changes in the
urban form in the post-industrial social order. One of the more prominent features of
post-industrial economy is the polarization of labor between high-end and low-end
service occupations. In this paper, I explore another type of bifurcation that takes place in
the restaurant kitchens. Work at restaurants has a peculiar character as it appeals to
different class and ethnic groups. This paper aims to uncover the features of restaurant
work.
