We had two huge malls near where I grew up in So Cal. One had better food, and one had better shops (and a second mini mall within walking distance). Spent a lot of my summers at both malls, with my friends. Arcades, food courts, movies, window shopping, buying music, just...being there. Miss those times. Went back in the early 2000s after they all moved away and our lives has started. Wasn't the same anymore. Even tried to take a girl I was dating to the mall with the good food. She didn't get the appeal. Broke up with her, kek.
