The food court features a domed skylight in the middle, quite a nice touch and one of my favorite features of the mall. None of this is original, though -- the food court was carved out of the third original anchor, a Thriftway grocery store, which had a super cool Native-inspired decor, the type of thing that I wish we would see more of in Washington these days -- though as the photo captions note, it "imitated Pacific Northwest Indian art motifs without reproducing actual design elements from any particular tribe", which isn't a great look; I would expect a company these days to hire actual Native artists, like what we saw at Tsawwassen Mills.
