This is a fantastic place that includes a food court, probably why most people will go here. Also in the 'mall' are a furniture store, an oriental (mainly japanese) plate/cup/mug/bowl store, and some other random asian shops. The plate store is very reasonable and has a lot of handmade and unique items in it.

The food court is as I said the main thing you'd come here for most likely. Available are:
Thai, Korean, Japanese (including sushi), Chinese (several regional varieties), Malaysian, Vietnamese, and some Indian, Pakistani, and Caribbean foods as well.

I like this place because you can choose unique, authentic dishes and SEE them, there are picture menus at each of the restaurants. You order by number, sit in a common food court area, and wait for your number to appear to get your food. The atmosphere is buzzy (not sure what previous reviewer was talking about saying it needs a buzz) and active, this is not the place for a romantic meal (although there are nice restaurants upstairs for that!). It's a good place for cheap eats (2-10 quid depending) and is a lot of fun to visit!
