What exactly is a pop-up restaurant? The answer comes in several forms, and Rochester has just about all of them. From a six-week restaurant, to pop-up "sushi night," to "supper clubs" that are similar to pop-ups, we'll uncover the new trend. Our guests:

Adam and Sarah Peterson, Normal Food and Drink Supper Club
Brian Van Etten, The Playhouse and Swillburger
Graham Greene, Beth restaurant
