I discovered this restaurant through an event, and boy, it was a great and tasty event! If you are (or were) a fan of Chipotle at any point of your life, this might interest you, as they have very similar concept. After being there once, I fell in love with the place (and the food, of […]
Finding a good food at any airport is always a challenge. Sometimes, you get lucky, but most of the time, you are not getting much of quality or tasty food. Most of us have learned to “settle” for whatever is available at the airport…(you can read my other experiences on airport food at: http://www.foodlovergirl.com/custom-burger-newark-airport/ and http://www.foodlovergirl.com/wolfgang-puck-express/).

One of the most famous quick & cheap eats of NYC is Papaya King. I know there are other “Papaya” guys out there, like Gray’s Papaya Dog (founded by a former partner of Papaya King), and Papaya Dog, but I believe Papaya King is the oldest, and original. The history of this establishment is quite […]
One experience I always try to have when I am in Japan is Kabuki Theater. My eldest sister took me there every time I visited Japan, and I really enjoyed the entire experience, from the theater, culture, ambiance, and of course, the food. It was also the time I got to spend a whole day […]
When someone mentions “Sonoma Valley,” most people will think wine tasting. Which is great, but what can be even better than wine tasting? Wine infused chocolate tasting! As we were walking through Sonoma Plaza when we spotted a lovely sign that said “Chocolate Tasting.” We got very excited and walked straight over to the store. […]
Ramen is one of the best Japanese comfort food (to me), you can have it in so many different style, different broth, toppings, etc., and is especially good during the cold months. But, finding a good ramen restaurant is another story. While we were in SF, we found this place called Katana-ya where they served […]
This is my second review of Hill Country Chicken (you can read my first review at: http://www.foodlovergirl.com/hill-country-chicken/). The last time I visited, I was so full that I didn’t have any room left in my tummy to try their awesome looking desserts. And since we absolutely loved their chicken and waffles, we wanted more of […]
There are Italian restaurants everywhere in Japan, mainly chain restaurant that does not offer that home-cooked feel anymore. So, when a small scale Italian restaurant that you can see and taste that the dishes are home made, it really hit that warm spot in your heart (or your tummy). My friend took us to this […]
There are many fast food chains out there, on global scale. But even the same stores offers different menu in different country, so you can still get a taste of something unique. Or, you can find fast food restaurant with great food that started in that country, and does not exist anywhere near where you […]
The wonderful winery, Jacuzzi Family Vinyards (http://www.foodlovergirl.com/jacuzzi-family-vineyards/) goes way back in the history. And from that history, another great winery was born, right across the street from Jacuzzi Vinyard, called Cline Cellars. The Founder was the grandson of one of the Jacuzzi brothers, who taught him the magic of wine making. I really love that […]
