This was such a cool spot to try a variety of great food! It is laid out like a food hall and once you sit at a table you scan the QR code on the table to order food from as many vendors as you like. You pay through the app well. Super convenient! There was no one at the door when walking in so it was a little confusing on what to do and where to go at first. We also could not find a station for any silverware which would have been nice. I ate from Nami Sushi and got some seasoned corn called Tomorokoshi and a crab filled Omusubi. The corn was a bit tough to eat as I accidentally kept eating the rind overall 4/5 I had the best chai tea i have ever tasted from Qahwah House. I am still dreaming about it haha. 5/5. From the Terry Melt we got the Chicken Parm Melt with fries and a side of dill pickle ranch. The chicken was a bit dry and I wish there was more flavor so I would give that a 3/5. From the So Cheesy vendor we ordered the Old Bay Fish & Chips and I fell in love! Would go back there just for that! 10/5! I didn't have a chance to try Amo Sami's Shawarma but I would love to come back to try them out!
Delicious verity of halal food with a great energetic environment and lots of board games to play when you're waiting
I love how the Canteen is set up, the day that I went it was cold and raining, so being able to order inside was a plus. They have a QR code on the table that pulls up all the food trucks that are located there and you can place one big order at multiple trucks at one time and they bring the food to you.
What a cool concept the canteen is you have Qahwah House La Fork, the custard company, Zee's bubble tea the munch box Terry melt the chicken coop so cheesy and a few other others all in one location you can order and pay through the app one time and pay for one bill with multiple spots and tons of options because of it, the inside is clean people are constantly walking around, wiping up tables, making sure everything is in order
I take a group of senior citizens out for work once a month for our lunch club. I usually like to take them somewhere new, buzzworthy, or somewhere they wouldn't go on their own and from yelp reviews I chose this for February. I missed the part where you had to order from the barcode on the table and found out when we arrived. I was concerned because most seniors don't like technology and don't know how to do that. Thankfully there was a server there who was amazing and helped me help all of them order. By time we were done they were so happy they learned something new, the food was amazing and the service was awesome! Very helpful. I had the steak melt from the Terry Melt truck for something different. It was really good I was kind of surprised seeing all we went through to order. Everyone's food came out as close together as they could get it and there wasn't one person who didn't enjoy their lunch and the experience. I'm posting the pics for some of the other dishes that were tried from the other trucks but didn't eat them but I can say everyone enjoyed what they had
