Counter Seating (breakfast)
Pro Tip: if you want breakfast at the Arcade Restaurant, get there just before they open so you’re in the first wave to get in. Otherwise, it’ll be a bit of a wait.

And, given the option, you know it’s always better to get counter seating because you get to watch all the stuff that’s going on. (Sadly, I did not have that option.)

So maybe the architect designed the decorative thing as an homage to the industrial thing.

Street Wig
I sort of hate to even think about the circumstances that would result in a wig, tangled up in leaves, left at the edge of a street. It can’t have been good, right?
This was the first street-wig I’d ever noticed, but a few days later and only three miles away I saw ANOTHER one. I have some questions…
