Absolutely delicious Thai food EXCEPT the food takes a very long time (up to an hour) to get, and there's currently no eating at the restaurant. I recommend ordering one hour in advance for take out, but it's worth it!!

Best ice cream ever, must go on a hot day! Yummy to-go lunch food, and pop into the bakery and candy shop too! It will take you back to your youth, new and old-school candy here! On warm, busy days plan to be patient as you may wait 10-15 minutes but it's worth it.
