That being said the chair closest to the box office movie theater I think is the most comfortable. My only complaint is I wish the website had more up-to-date information of where the new businesses are going in. I know they're going to be getting new businesses but I don't know where they're going. I think their map is up to date for what is in the mall. I'm not around here on Sundays to go to the flea market but I do know they have a flea market the pictures look like it is an interesting time.

Around 1:30 pm I was really lightheaded and need to eat something, I'm diabetic. I went to MochaLisa's and ordered a bagel with cream cheese. You would think this was a quick order. There were 4 or 5 people working the counter and I was the only person waiting for take-out. After about 15 minutes I finally asked what was taking so long. They said, oh there are other orders. Really? for takeout? Then they said their toaster was on the 'low' setting. I should have just asked for a refund and gotten a slice of pizza. Will never be going to this place again!

You place your food at the counter and your orders are brought to your table. We both ordered the seafood tofu stews and the mandoo appetizer to share. For some reason our orders took a long time. Others who came in after us got their orders before us too! The tofu stew was good but a bit disappointing in the lack of seafood in the dish. Seems like it was just dried seafood bits that were added to give the stew flavor. The Mandoo dumplings were fried and they came with a dumpling sauce. They were pretty good and we enjoyed those.

Also, with some good snack options. I am a creature of habit and always stop in at Starbucks for my drink inside of the Barnes and Nobles bookstore.

I've always regarded food court meals as glorious junk food, but the food at Crossgates got a…read morehealthy upgrade with the addition of Bibimbowl. As a mall food court meal, it's remarkable Korean fast food. The man behind the counter was friendly and helpful. He said the business settled into the mall about a year ago. When it comes to ambiance, it's about the food which is displayed in an inviting manner. There's a lot to choose from. It looked fresh, good quality and healthy. Far healthier than the other food court offerings. The portions were huge. I took the bowl home and only got halfway through. I saved the rest and ate it for lunch the next day. I was thrilled that my carb options included purple rice and Japchae which are delicious transparent sweet potato noodles. It's sometimes difficult to get purple rice in the Capital Region, so I consider it to be a delicacy. The vegetable options included seaweed salad which isn't a vegetable but tasted great. My photo doesn't do the meal justice. It was a tall bowl. Some of the really good stuff was at the bottom. I really liked the spicy chicken. I was allowed to add a second protein so I picked beef bulgogi which is a tall order if I was expecting it to be great. The marinade was a bit sweet for me. It was okay. Certainly edible. I would pick a different protein when I go back.

The busiest and most bustling mall in the Albany region, and this is its massive but underwhelming food court. Honestly it's a pretty crap food court, and it's huge and probably twice the size of a lot of mall food courts, so it's kind of disappointing that it's so underwhelming and so many of the things in and around here are just not worth eating. In other news, I left your seat on the whole time is it still warm I just turned 30 seconds (that was me talking to Barbie - I'm on voice dictation). And it's definitely a missed opportunity because after spending (seriously) 7 hours wandering this mall, we were absolutely starving, and I feel like we went in every single store, but it was (incredibly less than half of them. And so after all that time I think we could easily have gone for whole bunch of different things to eat, but because the food court is so bad, we ended up trying very little, and decided not to use this missed opportunity of a food court again. And I may never use it again, really. But then I say that every time I come to Crossgates and I always end up trying more things here.
