<p id="3owZgs">Beloved taco truck <strong>La Cocinita</strong> and bagel hotspot <strong>Laurel Street Bakery </strong>have both come aboard as opening vendors, according to a press release. They’ll join <a href="http://nola.eater.com/2016/11/15/13643302/pythian-market-food-frencheeze-squeezed">previously-announced</a> grilled cheese hub <strong>Frencheeze</strong> and its juice bar <strong>Squeezed</strong> as the first of 19 food options expected for the spot, which will be the third revitalized neighborhood food hall to hit New Orleans since 2015, alongside St. Roch Market (chugging along on St. Claude Ave <a href="http://nola.eater.com/2015/4/10/8381949/nolas-food-hall-gamechanger-st-roch-market-is-officially-open">since</a> April 2015, but <a href="http://nola.eater.com/2015/7/20/8979849/antigravity-accuses-st-roch-market-management-of-very-questionable">not without controversy</a>) and Dryades Market (which <a href="http://nola.eater.com/2015/4/10/8381949/nolas-food-hall-gamechanger-st-roch-market-is-officially-open">got off to a rocky start </a>on O.C Haley Blvd. in April 2016, and is still <a href="http://nola.eater.com/2016/12/30/14125168/new-orleans-restaurant-news">rather on shaky ground</a>). </p>
<p id="QwE6Gj">Pythian Market is expected to have a food truck rally vibe, though with air conditioning and seating in the 20,000-square-foot space, located on the ground floor of an upcoming <a href="http://nola.curbed.com/2015/11/9/9902358/pythian-apartments-building-constructio">mixed-use development</a> at 234 Loyola Avenue ie. right smack in the middle of the medical schools/downtown office crowd lunch frenzy zone.</p>

<p id="zJpMRX">Over the next few months, New Orleanians will see big debuts from well-known names, including new eateries from chefs Phillip Lopez, Michael Gulotta, Rob Bechtold and Aaron Burgau. There are major new food hall plans for downtown and a NY-based empire will head to Freret.</p>
<p id="LqqbJQ">Winter restaurants represent a little bit of everything: Barbecue, roof top boozing, baked goods, upscale and casual Southeast Asian eats, and both traditional and modern bistro dining. There are neighborhood gems and lots to look forward to all over town, so sit back relax, and start planning your 2017 feasting schedule right now.</p>

<p>The owner will also launch a juice bar in the food hall</p> <p id="bMYzdB">The CBD’s <a href="http://pythianmarket.com/gc/ppm.nsf/PythianMarketDeck%202016-10-26.pdf">forthcoming food hall</a> <strong>Pythian Market</strong> has announced two of its vendors. Local rolling sandwich slinger <strong>Frencheeze</strong> food truck will put down more permanent roots in the building next year. Additionally Frencheeze owner, Jason King plans to open a new juice bar concept called <strong>Squeezed </strong>in Pythian Market that will serve salads, smoothies and fresh juices.</p>
<p id="tskGjI">King, a Boston native, launched his food truck business in New Orleans in 2012, but says that since then the scene has become crowded. “It’s a great location,” King says of the market in a release. “Another reality is that the food truck scene is getting saturated and this allows us to go into the part of the CBD that doesn’t allow food trucks.” The food hall development also offers a similar feel to a food truck rally, notes King, with the added benefit of “tables and air conditioning.” </p>
<p id="Hru17L">Part of a <a href="http://nola.curbed.com/2015/11/9/9902358/pythian-apartments-building-constructio">mixed-use redevelopment</a>, the market at 234 Loyola Ave. will feature 19 vendors. The freshly renovated Pythian is expected to debut in 2017. Stay tuned. </p>
