This is from JKS, the people behind Gymkhana, Hoppers, Lyles and more. It sees a collection of top food vendors under one roof with probably the hottest table being Plaza Khao Gaeng from chef Luke Farrell. Besides that, there's Shawarma, sandwiches from Margot and Hector Henderson, burgers and more.
