University Mini-mart (aka Uni-Mini) is a typical convenience store with some extras that make it great.
This small store contains everything that one might need at 4 am - frozen dinners, soda, ice cream, smoking supplies, medicine, even a rack with a variety of cheeses. Especially popular at all hours of the night are the sandwiches - from steak to seafood, Uni-mini sandwiches are a staple to this community.
In addition to the normal fare of convenience store goodies, there is a rack of middle eastern food - grapeleaves, tahini (sesame seed sauce), burghul wheat, sesame candy. They also sell authentic hookahs and make an excellent falafel-hummus sandwich.
It's a convenience store - given this, the prices are still reasonable. The clerks are friendly and talkative, and frequently yell at each other in fast Arabic - the place is always hopping and active.
