We have great Thai food around here- be careful with the spice here though. Their spicy is no joke! Great flavors, reasonable prices, and family owned. *might still be cash only

Arts & Culture
Great place to visit and walk around. They have a free tram that runs all throughout the park and parking areas- our kids love the tram as much as the park. Also of note: during the summer they have free concerts, all the different museums (our favorites would be the Museum of Man, Museum of Art, and the Natural History Museum).
