Dumplay is an Asian-style mobile food stall selling different types of Chinese dumplings on London streets at midnight.  

Dumplay Mdnight Stall opens with five events in different locations. It provides a free space for the customer to enjoy traditional street food from different areas, exchange their preferred recipes and play traditional Mahjong games.  

The main goal of Dumplay is to revive the dwindling traditional night market by developing an interactive food stall for social connection and conversation around more complex issues of control and liberation. Dumplay aims to bring the night market culture to a larger audience and start a new conversation about business-oriented culture and urban dynamics.
