Vintage Photos: 19th & Early 20th Century NYC Street Food Vendors - Untapped New York A collection of vintage photographs showing the origins of food trucks, wagons, pushcarts, automats and other street food vendors in NYC.

New York City's street food culture goes back to the 1600s — when oysters and clams were sold to working-class New Yorkers from pushcarts. Untapped New York traces that history through stunning vintage photos.

Part of a sixteenth-century an altarpiece painted in 1518 by Quinten Massys. The entire thing is fairly dull, but in this section we see a dog bringing St Rochus a small round bread loaf that I am fairly sure qualifies as a semmel. This is a decent guide to the size, colour, and style we are looking for when we reconstruct them.

A piece of woodcarving from the Bayerisches Nationalmuseum. It is a small part of a larger altarpiece, a Nativity scene showing Mary in bed, Joseph cooking, and two angels serving the meal. The work dates to between 1513 and 1519 and this is how a wealthy woman was served at the time: wine poured from a decorative pitcher, warm food in covered dishes brought by a servant on a napkin. On the side table, we can see two small bread loaves, perhaps one wheat and one rye, as is described in a poem on table manners, or differing in some other way, and a plate that may be holding fruit or some other dish I am not sure about. Soups, cheese and hard custards were recommended for women in childbed, but this does not look particularly like any of these things.
