This maybe just another mall to you, but I was amazed at the selection they have, even at run of the mill stores like Gap or Banana Republic. Pieces I don't usually find in the bay area (esp. their accessories) I've spotted here. Macy's shoe department has more sky-high heels than Nordie's, but I didn't find anything that I liked.
Michael Kors, Louis Vutton and Betsey Johnson provide the designer end of the pack.
If you're tired of getting ripped off at the hotel restaurants, the food court here will save your wallet.
