The project
Food Hall 1 boasts a mix of ‘food hall’ dining as well as high end dining. It hosts many one-of-a-kind, attracting features such as ‘chefs table’ seating areas and private areas for a VIP dining experience, as well as a large terrace looking on to the renowned Al Wasl Dome. With a contemporary, clean feel created through soft wooden finishes and lots of greenery using many planters and trees within the venue; it is certainly no ordinary food hall encounter.



Challenges
- Design stage – Concept to Shop drawing
- Unforeseen challenges with the base build contractor during the handover stage.

Solutions delivered
Instead of utilizing the usual technical design stage, the engineering shop drawing period was used to complete the information to a standard which could be procured and installed in advance of the expected programme periods allowing us to maximize productivity on the already challenging programme deadlines.
