Greensborough Plaza is a shithole with nothing to draw you there, but there is a banh mi place pretending to be a regular sandwich shop and a Chinese food place pretending to be a regular takeaway. Get that bag if it works
Totally haha. We hit up the ramen place before the cinema sometimes. It's good. And we now bring earplugs to the hoyts ๐ coz it's fucken loud az.
We were there for this dinosaur event they had on and they were just letting people in. There were no signs to nit touch the animatronic dinosaur displays and they couldn't stop people anyway because there were only two girls working there and they were flat out preparing wooden dinosaur cutouts to paint.
And by the time you were done you just had this wet painted plywood dinosaur on a stand, paint pots, and a wet paintbrush to carry around with you. The kids had fun but there was no thought beyond just getting people in the door
