Extremely posh shopping mall with armed security at the entrance and perfumed aroma in the air throughout the 4 levels of the mall. All foreign brand names -US and British. Nice food court selection and some fancy restaurants as well, one has swings as seating benches. Toilets were like in a 5 star hotel. Malls in the Us are no longer fancy at all. This felt really great to just walk around. Also they have Apple Store.
Apparently it’s quite difficult to get real good tandoori chicken in the southern states so definitely check this restaurant out. It’s a tiny place but with authentic tandoor dishes. The garlic kabab was great. But tandoori was out of this world. Perfectly spices marinated smoky charred from the tandoor and super tender and juicy! 10/10 for the chicken tandoori. Garlic cheese naan was delicious and the chicken seek kabab was juicy and tender. Fresh coriander chutney and delicious salty buttermilk/lassi. It’s also a plus they carry ThumbsUp! The chicken handi was good but not authentic it was sweeter and not as creamy or smoky as the real one. Service was great and seating was nice on the second floor. Great place and a must visit for tandoori.

The only thing that was good was the egg rolls. Egg foo young was kinda blackish and stinky and no flavor, the kung pao chicken had a weird flavor maybe like stale oil not sure, the beef had kinda spoiled flavor. Veggies were not crisp fresh but soft like over cooked. Service was super fast delivery. And they added extra packets soy sauce and fortune cookies. Haven’t found a good Chinese or Thai in the Woodridge area but if you do, message me.
The cruise was great, food was really good. However we got the ticket for the air show and the ship went back to dock exactly when all the planes came out and the view was blocked by the dock buildings. 30 min later docking would have made it perfect, especially since the tickets were specifically priced higher for the air show!

Ummm beach that you can’t swim at because it’s always freezing cold!?! Why even have a beach, just make houses with heated swimming pools.
