Families can shop at an Israeli marketplace (shuk), where vendors sell jewelry, Judaica, books, and more. Young children can enjoy arts and crafts, balloon artists, and learn about Israeli life and culture. The whole family can purchase delicious kosher fare at the food court, ranging from traditional Israeli favorites like falafel, to American food like chicken strips and french fries.
