Food scene

Asian Caribbean cuisine with tropical cocktails and frozen drinks. We love the “fun size” drinks, the crab rangoon and chicken curry!

Take out spot with bagels, pastries, and sandwiches. On the weekends there is ALWAYS a line (that’s how you know it’s good 😄) I love Mikes hot double on an everything bagel. Nice outdoor seating spot.
