Food Scene
Cute dessert shop serving many delicious French pastries.
I love their caneles! They're baked in copper molds, just like the authentic Bordelaise caneles in France. The shop is small with limited seating, though. There is a patio at the back. Staffs are very friendly!

Best ramen in town! Long queue around lunch/dinner time (up to 30 minutes wait). I always order Spicy Miso Ramen (less salty) and Edamame and Saporo Beer. Ahhh good combo!
