Food Scene

Famous for their pastries and often sees a line out the door. You'd be one of the first in line since it's a block away from the house! They often sell out by 1pm.

The first US location for this ramen chain out of Tokyo. Lines are long but well worth the wait. And it's a few blocks from the house so if the wait is unreasonable, go out for a drink or hang out at home until the lines die down!
