Highly Anticipated South Loop Food Hall Reveals First Wave of Chefs | Eater Chicago

"A forthcoming bi-level food and drink venue inside the “Big Red” skyscraper, slated to open in January 2020, developed by John Buck Co. and DMK Restaurants; the concept was cultivated over two years with an emphasis on vendor diversity and features a mix of quick vendors and full-service restaurants. The initial vendor lineup spans barbecue (a DMK-run County BBQ in partnership with acclaimed chef Erick Williams), coffee and baked goods, hot sandwiches, a grab-and-go market with a prepared-food and salad bar, two full-service restaurants (one a 75-seat lunch-and-dinner space and a 16-seat wine bar), a vegetarian team’s new project, a Korean-American–led sandwich concept, and a seafood test kitchen offering new items alongside the brand’s popular dishes." - Naomi Waxman
