We saw five people, doing the line there, waiting for me.

20 people, 50 people.

I just hit my head and hit it.

I don't have anything else.

According to the National Restaurant Association, in 2021, nearly 90 ,000 restaurants across the U .S closed.

The pandemic changed everything.

The restaurant industry was especially vulnerable.

People were unemployed.

They had time on their hands, but they were also really strapped for cash and it pushed a lot of people to develop pop -ups.

In 2022, there were 105 % more temporary restaurants or pop -ups than there were in 2021.

And in 2023, there was 155 % more than in 2022.

While the pandemic certainly didn't create the pop -up, it did lead to an explosion of them.

So what does it take to make a pop -up restaurant successful.

And is this business model sustainable?

I was a sous chef at Eleven Madison Park.

I worked in fine dining for almost 10 years.

That was always my goal, to open my own fine dining restaurant.

My name is Eric Huang.

I am the chef and founder of Pecking House.

I'm Amanda Rosa and I'm the co -owner of Porter Town.

I left Eleven Madison Park in January of 2020 and then all of a sudden lockdown happened.

Everybody's stuck at home.

We were unemployed and just had the time.

Traditionally, people would have thought of a pop -up as more of a space you go to.

But due to the circumstances of the pandemic, it became this pop -up that came to you.

The pandemic pushed Jorge and Amanda to take to the streets to bring their specialty tortillas and tacos to people,

while Eric decided to sell pop -up Sichuan -style fried chicken deliveries from the back of his car.

One day we just replied to an ad on Craigslist.

That was our first pop -up we ever did.

We were like, let's just go for it.

And once he kind of got the taste for being able to do our own thing, we just kind of went from there.

Instagram specifically has become the biggest tool for pop -ups.

Once I committed to the fried chicken recipe, we just kind of told people about it via Instagram,

and it just kind of slowly spread from there.

The only marketing we've ever done is through Instagram, and again, it was very little by little.

Then we got a couple press hits, and it just took off like wildfire.

That Rob Martinez video that went viral on Instagram.

It's called Border Town.

Smoky, spicy, rich.

Let's support Jorge's business and come out next week.

Yeah, the following pop -up that next Sunday was lined.

I think the line was running to the end of the line.

Around the block.

We were just two people making tacos for the food.

We could only really deliver to about 120 people a day, which was already a lot.

It was crazy and really challenging.

The worst thing is disappointing people who have waited.

It's just like you never, never want that to happen because...

Yes, we're one of those.

We're at this turning point though, where a lot of people who were running these pop -ups feel,

you know, it was incredible to do it for as long as they've done it,

but it's untenable to kind of grow until they decide what the next step is going to be.

Let's take a second to thank our sponsor, Verizon.

This month, Verizon's Small Business Days are back to help make things a little bit easier.

From August 5th to August 11th, you can meet with business experts, get one -on -one advice, free tech checks, and special offers,

like a free 5G phone when you switch over to their service.

So don't miss out.

Now back to the video.

Popups are incredibly hard to run.

It's not everyone's goal to be doing that forever.

And the power of power, power, power, power, power, power,

power, power, power, power, There's not a ton of data on the successes and failures of pop -ups,

and that's largely because every small business has different goals.

You know, what is the success rate?

I can't really answer that

because I think that's not everyone's goal to be doing a pop -up that turns into a restaurant.

There are many pop -ups, like Apocalypse Burger in Indianapolis, that found success, yet closed their doors to focus on other projects.

Or Southeast Roadhouse in Texas, which is a new pop -up from two chefs who previously popped up with other restaurants.

In some cases, the limited run is the goal.

For so many people, this is the first time that they've ever been able to really dream.

The good things about the pandemic is they shook up the normal order of things.

And I think people were just like, oh, we don't, there are no rules.

If the pandemic hadn't happened, we'd probably just be working in someone else's restaurant right now.

The pandemic definitely gave us the time, the freedom to just make this happen.

There are many storefronts that are opening this year

that came from people who built an audience through pop -ups just on Instagram, which is really exciting.

We were kind of a nomadic restaurant for almost a year.

It was a whole process of learning how to sign a lease, how to set up insurance,

workers come into all these things you never learn as a chef.

Then you build a restaurant and that's a brutal process.

The future of Border Town is definitely a restaurant, you know, definitely a brick and mortar.

That kind of brought me back to my roots of like, you know, this is what being a chef is really about, is making people happy.

I'm very grateful for it and that's how I met my future wife, so it's pretty good too.

I'm going to go to the next video.

什么是跟读法？

跟读法 (Shadowing) 是一种有科学依据的语言学习技巧，最初开发用于专业口译员的培训，并由多语言者Alexander Arguelles博士普及。这个方法简单而强大：您在听英语母语原声的同时立即大声重复——就像是一个延迟1-2秒紧跟说话者的影子。与被动听力或语法练习不同，跟读法强迫您的大脑和口腔肌肉同时处理并模仿真实的讲话模式。研究表明它能显着提高发音准确性，语调，节奏，连读，听力理解和口语流利度——使其成为雅思口语备考和真实英语交流最有效的方法之一。
