===Food=== The cuisine available in Queens reflects its vast cultural diversity. The cuisine of a particular neighborhood often represents its demographics; for example, [[Astoria, Queens|Astoria]] hosts many [[Greek restaurant]]s, in keeping with its traditionally Greek population.<ref name="Nycgo-Must-See-Astoria" /> [[Jackson Heights]] is known for its prominent [[Indian cuisine]] and also many [[Spanish cuisine|Latin American eateries]].<ref name="Spiller-Queens-Menus-Project 2019" /> The [[Queens Night Market]] in [[Flushing Meadows–Corona Park]], operating since 2015 on Saturdays from April to October (with a break from late August to mid-September), offers samples of food capped at $6 from dozens of countries with attendance of up to 20,000 a night.<ref name="TimeOut 2018 Mar 11" /><ref>Meditz, Stephanie G. [https://www.qchron.com/editions/queenswide/queens-night-market-is-cultural-affordable/article_8d6f4d57-3846-5728-ad26-5baaf5b789c8.html "Queens Night Market is cultural, affordable"], ''[[Queens Chronicle]]'', November 16, 2023. Accessed January 17, 2024. "Queens Night Market founder John Wang said he implemented a $5 price cap on food when the market launched in 2015, followed by a $6 exception in 2017 that still exists thanks to Citizens, this year's primary sponsor that subsidized entry fees for vendors. He believes that, though attendees overwhelmingly said they attend for the cultural experience, Queens Night Market's affordability attracts nearly 20,000 people per night."</ref><ref>Lin, Sidney. [https://thesciencesurvey.com/features/2023/07/21/the-world-within-a-world-stories-of-the-queens-night-market/ "The Worlds Within a Market: Stories of the Queens Night Market"], ''The Science Survey'', July 21, 2023. Accessed January 17, 2024. "After its beginning in Flushing Meadows Corona Park in April 2015, the Queens Night Market has run every year since (with the exception of 2020 due to the COVID-19 pandemic). The market takes place on Saturday evenings from late April to late August, and then again from mid-September through late October."</ref>
