Don't let the boring appearance of the salad fool you. The homemade sweet and sour vinaigrette dressing makes a big impression. You can buy bottles of the dressing to take home with you.

Meals here conclude with a scoop of vanilla ice cream and the chance to pour on as much chocolate, butterscotch, or creme de menthe sauces as you want.
