This place is awesome. They have a cool authentically pleasing in house food court with close to a dozen different food options, the grocery store portion also has food and drunk options you can eat immediately. This place is complete with a cool and large book store, arcade, ice cream/treat shops, a Bakery, and cool Asian food items harder to find in the area.
