Food Scene
Technically Korean but I think it has other asian influences. The other side of Tomukun is a korean BBQ place which I highly recommend if you are into that type of experience. ( FYI the BBQ is closed on mondays though)

Zingerman's is iconic. It is not cheap ($15 for a sandwich) but top quality ingredients, great flavors, and a clean conscience because they pay all their employees living wages (hence the high ticket price) it also has a market attached to it with some really unique products that make good gifts if you know a foody.

Awesome brunch spot! BUT.... parking is almost impossible in this area so either plan ahead to park somewhere else downtown and enjoy a stroll or take the bus/uber to get here. They close mid afternoon so get here early.
