Stunningly beautiful campus, filled with trees. (I fell in love with it after having lived for more than a decade in Oxford, England, and for years in Princeton, NJ.)

There is nothing here that is not delicious and fresh. The space is airy and cool (and very child-friendly), and we often get take out to enjoy at home by our pool.
