    This is a food hall, more than a restaurant. They have a Ramen bar, hamburger and sandwich stall, Mediterranean/Middle Eastern stand, dessert, and a pizza stand. The hamburgers were excellent. The Shawarma was excellent. The Caesar salad is more of a coleslaw. The Ramen was acceptable. Getting there is a little bit of a hassle from the village. Would stay on the main road if walking.
