Happy Friday! Here's a news recap:

The Morning Brew: Oklahoma City lands its first food hall

The trendy Midtown neighborhood is set to land Oklahoma City's first food hall, reports The Oklahoman's Steve Lackmeyer. It will be called The Commissary and operated in a 1923 building that was once a service station at 308 NW 10.

Vincent Le, a partner in Northline Development, said he was weighing deals with a couple of different restaurant operators when he was approached with a food hall concept pitched by Troung Le (no relation), owner of Chick-n-Beer in Uptown 23rd.

The “food hall” operates like a food court at a mall, with nine kitchens to be set up for nine restaurants that will operate in the historic building.

Food halls have enjoyed a resurgence across the country since about 2010,  according to the website Eater.
