A block away so it's a super convenient, basic meal option. Personally enjoy their matcha latte. Usually go for breakfast.

Open 24/7 cab drivers travel from all over to eat here. The service isn't great but it's an experience. You'll feel like you're in the Ivory Coast. Fish, plantains and peanut butter stew is delicious.
