Suuuuper interesting.

The spicy flavor is pretty strong and there were a lot of peppers and other stuff in the pot.

Like, a LOT. We scooped them out at some point and there was still more.

I liked this place but according to reviews, it's not as good as it used to be?

I think AYCE would have been nice!

Although, we ordered way too much noodles.

I liked the soup flavors but the noodles were maybe too chewy.

My favorite thing isn't even the hotpot but the red bean sesame balls at the sauce bar.

Especially when they were warm!

Overall it was a good experience though.

More squid pls

So interesting to look through all the stuff they have.

Lots and lots of little cubicles with so many things.

Idk what it is about com tam but these plates are just really friggin delicious no matter what you get.
There was like 200 dishes and the waitress literally remembered all of them lmao.

I think mine is a shrimp cha and beef.

It's ridiculously good if you haven't had it in a while.

This place is super nice for lots of Asian food and products.

First stop was Daiso, then a snack shop.

Aji Ichiban

Got a bunch of candy and there were lots of samples out so we tried a lot of things like dried fish, etc.

Super good!

We also tried licorice which was a mistake, the taste is so strong and lingers!

Neofuns

Super adorable arcade!!

The prices seem a bit expensive but I guess the prizes look really quality.

Lots of Asian characters.

There were a lot of mini sized games too for little kids!

So cute

This place probably has every popular Asian beauty product I've heard of.
I felt like a kid in a candy store but honestly everything was priced pretty expensive!
Good to know where I could find these items in a brick and mortar shop though.
Really awesome find.

Happy Lemon / Sunmerry Bakery

Happy Lemon is a recent love of mine.
The drinks here weren't as good but there was a big bakery section similar to 85 Degrees.
The prices looked about the same too.
Really pretty cakes!
