| - Assembly chef's hall is what I would call a trendy/high end food court.
A whole bunch of delicious restaurants come together under one roof with a bar! The options are awesome, from fried chicken, to ramen, to burgers, to tacos, to coffee and cupcakes. There's definitely something for everything!
The atmosphere is great, lots of young people, suits, and people who just wanna let loose a little after work. It can get pretty busy and finding a table to sit at can be quite a battle. My friend and I went early to try to find a table for 6 people, we first stood around at a pillar with a ledge for the first 15-20 minutes, grabbed a 2 person table as soon as it became available while still keeping an eye out on any table that shows signs of emptying out soon, swooped into a 4 person table when those guys left for a larger table, and finally after an hour, we managed to conquer the big 6 person table! Woohoo!
The downside is that it's a little pricey. The cost of food is probably less if you go to the original locations, and drinks are pretty expensive. A steam whistle is $10, a pitcher of margarita is $44 (which serves about... 5 medium glasses because almost the whole pitcher is ice). But that's what you pay for for the diverse options and the atmosphere I guess.
The other downside is that the food stalls closes pretty early, on the website some of them say that they close at 10, 11pm depending on which stall, but majority of them close around 9-9:30pm. After that, the place dies down quite a bit.
Regardless we all really enjoyed ourselves and it's a good play to hang out after a long day of work!
