I laughed when I saw this...

I think the main focus is to bring office workers here for the happy hour and charge high prices for "Asian fusion" bar food.

Sing Sing was confirmed back in April to be taking the Duke.

Word on the street is that King Tap's is taking over the Ascari and LOV spaces to build out an approx. 7,500 sf restaurant (across the street from the new Earls).

I guess Toronto cannot keep up with its generic food brands from out west...

What's on the menu at Chaiyo, a fast-casual Thai counter from chef Nuit Regular

It’s inside CIBC Square’s fancy new fourth-floor food hall

torontolife.com

Chaiyo is located in a food hall (albeit a very swanky one on the fourth floor of CIBC Square). For Regular, the relatively tight menu and quick-service model is an opportunity to be freewheeling with the day’s selections, adjusting for seasonality and her ever-changing inspiration.

again Im not a fan of the food hall concept...

Food Halls are merely a fad. They are simply gussied up food courts.

Much like the buffets of the 1980s, this too shall pass.

The food halls are good! They are definitely just gussied up food courts, but what's wrong with having better food courts?

Nothing but they are really only going to survive until the novelty wears off. Once it does, they turn into the Aura food court.

The ones in good locations will probably thrive. The ones in bad locations will die, like the one in the Annex did.

It was a strange choice to open a food hall in the middle of a vibrant retail strip with tons of restaurants.

Oh god - chick with an acoustic guitar

That's enough to keep me away.

Amusingly, that Toronto Life article (at least for me) has a link to their article about the space where two food halls have failed in the Annex. I think the right mix in the right space might work in the Annex, but without a strong lunch or tourist crowd, it's probably hard.
