Today, Time Out reveals the Iconic Eats list, which showcases 46 dishes that best represents the flavours of cities around the globe, as voted by locals. Over 38,000 people voted for their city's most iconic dish, and the results are not what you might expect. Time Out believes that food is the best way to emotionally connect to a city and its people - to discover and experience the soul of the city. The 2020 Iconic Eats list showcases the dishes that locals believe everyone should try when visiting their city, from internationally recognised gastronomic touchstones to local classics that you’ll struggle to find anywhere else. In Portugal, many would assume city locals would be united in suggesting the delicious custard tart called pastel de nata. But the majority of Porto residents advocated the city’s own  francesinha, a stacked meat sandwich drizzled in melted cheese, which took 65% of the vote, while Lisbon locals thought bacalhau (15%), dried and salted cod, was the main dish of their city for visitors to try.  The UK is known for being a culinary melting pot with some of the world's best chefs, yet Londoners believe their city’s most iconic dish is the simple-yet-tasty fish and chips (19%). The people of Edinburgh urge visitors to try the traditional haggis (23%) while nearly half of Brummies (49%) want the balti curry recognised as their most iconic dish, since it was popularised in the city in the 1970s.  Tacos seem to be the most popular food within US cities, as Aus

Time Out Market Boston, the food and cultural destination, is setting the stage for a strong dose of Boston Punk Rock nostalgia with a retrospective installation by legendary Boston shutterbug, Philin Phlash. Beginning Wednesday, October 21 and throughout the month of November, Time Out Market celebrates the ‘80s underground music scene in the Fenway and Kenmore neighborhoods. Throughout the six-week installation, the Market will display more than 60 of Phlash’s most iconic images shot in and around the Boston area.Known for his impromptu and candid shots of celebrities, rock stars and people out after dark, Phlash returns to his native Boston with his largest show in 10 years.
