The Margate Kebab Map by Anna Skutley & Umut Gunduz

The Margate Kebab Map is a multi-media documentary project highlighting a group of restaurants often overlooked or excluded by cultural profiles of Margate. While they are seldom reviewed by local magazines, such restaurants are long standing staples of the food industry. We would like to include this group in Margate’s conversation around culture, in order to contribute to a more inclusive and accurate portrayal of the community.

So, we have created a playable game for Margate NOW 2020 which allows visitors to explore virtual versions of various kebab restaurants in Margate. While we encourage everyone to patron these restaurants where they can access The Margate Kebab Map via your mobile device, we would also like to invite you to Northdown Studios for a socially-distanced private view.
