We love it when we find a brand-new spot that just opened up recently. This wine bar opened a few months ago, and since we really enjoy a good glass (or bottle) of wine, we went to check it out. They offer natural wine and genuinely seasonal dining, hence, their menu for both wine and food […]

Mad Hatter’s G&T Party – Pop Up
In New York, there is always something new to do and see, and new shops and restaurants opening up all the time. That also means that some shops and restaurants are closing very often too. It is a tough city to make it… But then again, there are some unique spots that opens for a […]
Mike & Patty’s
One of the breakfast place that I really wanted to visit while I was in Boston was Mike & Patty’s. They had photos of super tasty looking sandwiches, and yes, with rave reviews. I finally had the time to visit them right before I had to go back home to NYC. It was at a […]
Cocoa Grinder
We were looking for a breakfast spot in the Bay Ridge area in Brooklyn. To my pleasant surprise, they had many great options! Out of all the attractive places, we narrowed it down to this spot. They actually have several locations, all in Brooklyn. They do state that they are “Born & Raised in Brooklyn.” […]
21 Greenpoint
Brooklyn has so many new and interesting restaurants opening up everywhere, it is not easy to keep up. When we tried to go to one of the very popular restaurant, it had a very long wait… So, we decided to look up a different spot, and easily found several options nearby. The name of the […]
Yume Ga Arukara
While we were in Boston, we found an interesting Japanese eatery called Yume Ga Arukara. The literal translation of that is “because I have a dream.” It is located inside the Lesley building at Porter Square. They have some shops and other eateries in the inside. They all share a public rest room. Yume Ga […]
Fumo Pizza-Bar-Pasta
We were looking for a place to grab some dinner one evening, and we found this spot. We were actually planning to eat elsewhere, but they had crazy long wait, and this place was less busy, so… We still had to wait but only about 10-15 minutes of wait. The inside is not so big, […]
Pauli’s
When you are in Boston, you gotta get your hands on some good ole’ Lobstah Roll! And it could be found at so many different places, but most of them were pretty pricey. And, the portion of lobster roll is not that great. After doing some research, I found an old school spot that offers […]
BCD Tofu House
Right across the George Washington Bridge over to Fort Lee, NJ is where you can get good Korean food at affordable prices. And, from what I hear, most of them are much more authentic than some other spots. I remembered having a really good authentic Korean soft-tofu soup long ago down South, I wanted to […]
Boucherie Park
I had a pleasure of dining at their original spot in West Village about a year ago (you can read about it here : http://www.foodlovergirl.com/boucherie/). Now that they have a secondary location in Gramercy Park, we went to check it out. The restaurant was easy to spot with bright red awnings. The inside was astonishingly […]
