Lovely tree lined pedestrian shopping street, shops like lulu lemon, Alo Yoga , Zara , Abercrombie to name a few. Unfortunately there were quite a few shops that had closed too. It was all very quiet.... more »

This food court actually has some atmosphere. Located in the Cellar, it offers the best variety of fast foods I've ever seen in one spot, although the offerings were stereotypically Californian in that they were quite health-concious and seemed to give preference to locally grown products. No greasy, unidentifiable meat products here. The good thing about the food court is that it is so crowded, you know the food is fresh and hasn't been sitting very long in warming pans!
