West Village, Chelsea & Meatpacking District
Inside a brick building in the heart of the Meatpacking District is this buzzing food emporium. A raw, industrial space lit by skylights, it features a bar and over a dozen gourmet vendors slinging Korean bibimbap, poke bowls, ceviche, pizza, Japanese curry, ramen, Belgian waffles and more.
There's a communal seating area, and several food counters where you can sit around and watch the cooks in action while munching your meal.
