I have always been curious about Maman, I knew they had really good baked goods items, and I do like having all sorts of baked goods… But, they do offer more than just baked goods, it is a popular spot for brunch and lunch. We happened to be very closed to one of their locations, […]
Trying to get something different in the morning, I looked for a new spot. I wanted some kind of breakfast sandwich type of food, plus something sweet. This place came up in my search, so I decided to try them out. The inside was nice and bright with the surrounding walls covered with large windows. […]
We were lucky enough to attend a very interesting event called Food Loves Tech. It is a “first-of-its-kind education by entertainment innovation expo, focusing on how technology shapes and changes the way we cultivate and consume food.” Yes, it is all about food of the future! It is not all about technology-related products, but also introducing […]
One thing we enjoy doing on our way to Japan is visiting airport lounges. Not all the lounges are excellent, but it is better than waiting for your flight at the gate. We booked our flights with JAL, and like so many other airlines, JAL was partnering with Air France Lounge. It seemed like all […]
So, we are back to our favorite themed cafe, once again!

Since they have expanded their hours and menu, we wanted to try a few items that we haven’t tried yet. Another new thing is that they […]
Café Buunni is a coffee, tea, espresso bar, also serving smoothies, frappes, and some baked goods. There are not many coffee shops around this area, so it seems to be popular. Inside is rather small, has just one big table for people to share, and a small bench by the window, and counter with seating on […]
The Smith is a casual “American Brasserie” (I love the sound of “Brasserie” for some reason), they offer breakfast, lunch, dinner, and Sunday brunch. The inside is bright without being too bright, to bring out that cozy atmosphere. The interior is rather simple and clean, with nice contrast of white against dark wood. They are […]
When you need a quick (or relaxing) breakfast early, Le Pain is open from 7am, and has pretty nice menu selection. We went to one in Upper West Side on 84th and Amsterdam, walking distance of the American Museum of Natural History and the Riverside Park. It has nice open space with large windows, bringing in […]
