The Sears Mall Food Court (No, Really)


We wanted to go check out a pet store at the Sears Mall (Corner of New Seward Hwy. and Northern Lights). This is an older mall and is perhaps not the most bustling or refined but the small food court was almost impressive.


The food court, with four different vendors, was the closest thing I've seen to the hawker stalls in Singapore since Honolulu's Chinatown. There was:

Vietnamese
Korean + Japanese
Thai
Chinese

Each stall was independently owned and the owner/operators actually knew what they were doing. Nothing was outstanding, but everything passed the muster. It was kind of neat to see a mall that isn't dominated by pizza chains and the like. I'd much rather have to choose between king crab green curry and bulgogi than a whopper and a big mac.


If you are in Midtown and are looking for a good, fast, cheap lunch don't be afraid to brave the Sears Mall.
