I have been so surprised at myself for really enjoying the Blue Mall. But I use it mainly as a food stop. INMHO, as I remember in Manhattan, Hard Rock here still makes the best burgers around and maybe all of DR. Plus service very good and a convivial large place with room between tables; mexican Restauant can't remember name right now...decent, not great but a definite ok. We get our gelato just down the stairs (very good choco mint a favorite) much better than Valentino ice cream and stop alot maybe too much at the Kah Kow chocolate shop. Hope the other restaurants that are being planned are good. If only the Blue Mall had only food options I think would/could be a big hit. The stores there are pretty awful and full of tourist chotchky stuff. Clothes stores, except Zara are also not at all appealing. Don't know why they are there. Now if the mall only had a good bakery and good wine store, we would really be in 7th heaven.
