Ramen tastes really good. Serving size is just right with ample toppings on it. The tamago is really tasty too. Highly recommended for people who loves Ramen.

Safi and his family as very kind and gracious hosts. Their food is delicious, very reasonably priced, and their restaurant atmosphere makes you feel like your having a truly home cooked traditional Afghan dinner.

Very nice representative crafts of the province here. Most are of the higher end and quality. Not your normal t-shirt and trinket store. If you're looking for something special and unique, it's the best place to go.

One of my all time favourites in downtown st. John's. Great selection for tourists and locals alike, and has a lot of local works. Prices are good considering the stuff you're buying, and the staff are always the best.

They have so many wonderful things you don't see in your average store. Lots of items are locally made. Staff are friendly and the history of the building always gives me a thrill, knowing people from the past have been shopping in this building for many many decades.
