Food Scene
Open late (24 hours maybe?) and has great Lebanese, Russian, Thai, and western foods. Brilliant spot for people watching at 3am while eating a pretty decent pizza and smoking a shisha/water pipe.

Current top choice for western breakfast/brunch, though other meals just as tasty - especially dessert. Incredible sourdough bread, decent coffee, eggs Benedict the best in the city.
