I agree, Vietnamese coffee is always a great pick. I especially like the authentic ones. I had the chance to try CĆ PhĆŖ in Vietnam when I traveled there through https://gowithguide.com/vietnam, and it was exactly that strong and sweet style, often with condensed milk, that makes it such a unique caffeine experience.

Anyone have suggestions for dinner tonight near the Courtyard Marriott downtown for 3 older kids who donāt agree on any food?

Dairy Market is a little bit of a walk but will give everyone the option to do something different.
I like Guajiros and itās close to you, but might not be varied enough to make all the kids happy.

Maybe Downtown mall and check out Whiskey Jar or Millers or citizen burger?

Itās a chain, but Mellow Mushroom is steps away, and has more than just pizza on the menu.

If youāre talking about that Marriott thatās across from the Downtown mall Iād just go down there and find a spot. Several options including a few that wonāt break the bank like some of the Main Street options.
But Iām sure @ekandado knows a few hidden gems.
Courtyard is the one thatās near the Corner and hospital, Residence Inn is the one closer to the Downtown Mall. But Mall is very easily walkable from the Courtyard too.

While @haney enjoys strong and sweet the condensed milk can really mess up his LRA flow so maybe a dsclaimer next time thanks

Oakhart Social is a block or so away if you can get a reservation. Pizza, fried chicken, and fancy fish and meat dishes as well.

Appreciate the clarification @AdventiveQuasar I never remember which one is which. Youāre closer to the corner then. Thereās a Devils Backbone outpost just down the street from there. Canāt go wrong with a burger from Boylan or those chicken nugget things I lived off them last season during the SMU game.

Feel like The Virginian has a lot of standard options (grilled cheese, chicken tenders, mac nācheese, sandwiches, burgers) and great people watching plus nostalgia. Beer is always cold.
That or Boylan would be my go to (although Boylan food has been really bad the last couple of times Iāve been).
