Parking your Car

Food for Class

Having your daily coffee before class is not necessary, unless it's essential for your functioning. During our classes, you will have plenty of opportunities to make and enjoy numerous cups of coffee. We also suggest considering bringing snacks and drinks that will make you feel more comfortable. If you're looking for lunch ideas while attending our course, here is a list of nearby restaurants. However, please note that we neither endorse these establishments nor guarantee their operating hours. To maximize your learning time, we recommend bringing a lunch instead of going out for lunch, as leaving the classroom can sometimes result in lost class time due to busy restaurants.
