Make sure you wander around at the connected Jupiter Hotel, or you will be missing out. Prepare for lots of tattoos, beards, and above all fun.

Essentials
It's not expensive, it's super close to the apartment, and it's stocked with everything healthy and delicious. Lots of pre-packaged, pre-made options to bake, nuke or saute in a snap, that are still all very healthy options. That's quite hard to do.
