The Expanse depicts a lot of local street food vendors on different space stations throughout the solar system

Came here to say this. Expanse hits the notes of “real people actually live on this ship/station” way more than any other sci-fi I’ve consumed. Fast food, bars, brothels, restrooms, storage and maintenance areas, all of these are specifically called out at most stations.

I noticed this too, The Expanse does that so well, really fleshing out what life would be like living as a grunt in The Belt. They had their own culture, their own sayings, their own food. Like any colony, it gave host to any number of establishments meant to provide a bit of comfort out in the inky black nothing. The shared suffering also gave them a sense of community, which is a powerful motivator when the far off motherland starts imposing increasingly burdensome levies… Makes you want to grab the closest thing and hurl it at them! 😉
WATCH THE EXPANSE
It’s amazing.

I would go farther and say read the books. The show is great, and the books are great too.
