After a fun beer tasting at Craft Beer Bar IBrew, we went over to this spot for dinner. My sister knows good food, so we were excited to try whatever they had to offer. It is located on the third floor of NOCO building, and you can see their open kitchen from the entrance. The […]

I love Japanese izakaya, and I have been wanting to visit this spot for a while now. Since they don’t take reservation, and with its popularity, we haven’t had the chance to visit…until now!

Here, you know your neighbors, the mom & pop shops are still the main stores to get groceries and everyday items from, and people still talk to each […]
