"Lettuce Entertain You Enterprises is one of Chicago’s most prominent restaurant groups so it’s only fitting it runs a bustling food court inside Water Tower Place. Take a break from shopping and head down to the mezzanine level for 14 distinctive kitchens. They range from a robust salad bar to Chinese selections by Big Bowl, such as orange chicken and fried rice. The process has also been streamlined for efficiency: Guests receive a card upon entering, swipe it for purchases, and pay on the way out." - Jeffy Mai
