"I like this idea, it makes the "Food" concept easier to understand for the person being interviewed, so we don't get broad and useless responses but meaningful responses related to immigration. The Food of memory idea could also extend to food of ancestors for people who are not themselves immigrants but have a particular food that reminds them of their ancestors homeland."

"I was thinking of an idea that focused on what different immigrants or people of the city want the city to become. We often focus on what their story was or what their dream is, but what about what is the dream they have for their city, where is it they want it to go. Are the ideas similar or is the future f NYC unpredictable like nothing else."
