Ellsworth Place has released further details on the new food hall being constructed at the mall in downtown Silver Spring. It will be called Commas, and hold 12 stalls for dining vendors. The name is inspired by the punctuation symbol that "separates items in a list, symbolizing the myriad of ways to dine and get together," the mall said in a statement this morning. Commas is expected to open next spring on Level 2.
In addition to a range of local and international cuisine options, the food hall will also serve as an event space. A central bar will be designed as a place to hang out for happy hour, as well as on nights and weekends.
GrizForm Design Architects was contracted to design the food hall. Patrons will be able to see into the open kitchens of each of the 12 vendors in the 13000+ square food space.

Cool! Sounds like a great way for a new business to establish itself and build a customer base without having to invest in a full brick-and-mortar place or deal with trying to make a food truck work. Can't wait!
ReplyDeleteI pray this establishment is managed under better conditions than the Pike and Rose joint.
