Great authentic Ethiopian food. They are already quite inexpensive but you can also borrow our YUM card and get a discount. (If you're wondering, it's a card that gives you a discount at various immigrant-owned restaurants, a charity called The Welcome Project created it, and proceeds from selling the cards go to them.)

An enormous glass globe displaying the world in the 1940s, you go inside of it on a walkway. Because it is made out of glass, it has cool acoustic properties. You can stand in the middle and talk, and it will sound like you are using a microphone. If you stand at one end, you can whisper and be heard at the other.
