We had one of the best foods from MIFUNE New York. The Executive Chef, who is an acquaintance of my gourmet sister’s best friend. Everything we had was so good, we went back for more, and then again! I took my mother there while she was vising us here in NYC, and also, my in-laws. […]

Amuse Bouche Bistro
Another great place we went in the Fall of 2023…Amuse Bouche Bistro! I was looking for a more casual place, and I found this lovely spot. But, I must admit, I was a bit confused as I approached the address. I didn’t see a building or anything that could like a small restaurant or an […]
Thyme Bar
We have been to Patisserie Chanson a few times, and to the Dessert Bar (CLOSED) below a few years ago. The space that used to be occupied by the Dessert Bar is now a hidden, a cocktail speakeasy lounge! While my family was here, I decided to take them there. There was a somewhat not-noticeable […]
Riverpark
I am back at writing about the places we dined several months ago… Better late than never! I found this spot called Riverpark while I was looking for a nice restaurant with a view of the river. I thought my mother and my niece will enjoy it. The location was not as easy to access, […]
Cipriani Dolci
When you have out-of-town visitors, there are a few places that might be interesting for them. It might be a bit tourist-y, which usually means pricey and not very tasty dishes. Well, I might’ve found a pretty good spot! It is Cipriani Dolci, inside the landmark, Grand Central Terminal. Cipriani has many, many locations all […]

Olio e Piú – 2023
Ever since we first visited Olio e Piú in 2017, we’ve become a massive fan of the restaurant. We returned again shortly after, and the experience was as great as the first time. When my family was visiting, I thought they would love this spot too. So on a rainy day, we headed over for […]
Bathtub Gin
If you read many of my posts, you know I absolutely love Speakeasy spots. We recently went to this fun place called Bathtub Gin in Chelsea. When you get to the address, you see Stone Street coffee shop, already closed for the day. But guess what, comes the magic hour, a staff will come out […]
Elsie Rooftop
There are so many great rooftop spots in NYC, I have been to a few, such as Sushi Lab Rooftop and Hotel Chantelle, and had a really nice time! This time, I found this spot called Elsie Rooftop for a Bottomless Brunch. I usually stay away from bottomless places, since they tend to water down […]
The Cauldron NYC 2023
Update: We went back to The Cauldron NYC only four months later, in late September 2023. I was shocked at how much changes they made to everything… The only thing they didn’t change was the decor. We could no longer choose which sandwich we wanted, and the portion was significantly smaller. The waitress was not […]
