We love visiting the New York Botanical Garden during the holiday season, especially for their amazing Holiday Train Show. We’ve been there a couple of times in the past, before the pandemic, and we finally got to go back again this year at the beginning of December. If you are a fan of trains, architecture, […]

Burger Ya @ Izakaya Juraku
One of the best place to get some Japanese beer in NYC is Izakaya Juraku. Ever since our first visit, we became a massive fan! They have all sorts of craft beer from all over Japan, and their food is pretty amazing too. In the Summertime, we heard about Burger Ya, offering authentic Japanese burgers, […]
Two Hands Corn Dog – East Village
Korean food has always been popular among many people, and I am a fan of Korean cuisine as well. We’ve had some tasty Korean food in Korean Town in NYC such as Gunbae, and around Fort Lee, NJ area, such as BCD Tofu House and Madang Restaurant & Cafe and many others. With the recent […]
Kung Fu Xiao Long Bao
When we ventured out to Flushing, Queens for tasty crepes at A-Crepe, we also had a nice early dinner before we headed back to Manhattan. There was one Dim Sum spot that was on my list for a while in the neighborhood, so we decided to go check it out. It is called Kung Fu […]
BÀO Tea House
I enjoy going to dim sum places, and always order some sort of steamed dumplings or Bao. You just can’t leave without having one or both of them! I’ve had some tasty ones from Nan Xiang Xiao Long Bao, Yaso Tangbao, Jing Fong Restaurant, and Golden Unicorn. The bao offered at the BÀO Tea House is […]
Kudo Society Cafe – Teaneck
Ever since we first visited Kudo Society Cafe in Palisades Park, NJ, we became instant fans of their food! When we heard that they opened another location in Teaneck, NJ, we decided to see how they are like. At our first visit in early May, we were greeted by one of those fun inflatable air […]
A-Crepe
For many people, “Chinatown” in New York means the one in downtown Manhattan. But, if you ask the people who knows about the “REAL” Chinatown, they will tell you it is in Flushing, Queens. We were just starting to explore more eateries and restaurants before the Pandemic hit. You can find some great dim sum […]
Chinah FiDi
With the Pandemic still not completely over, the desire for take-out and delivery focused eateries has gone up, in my opinion. This new spot, Chinah FiDi is a welcome addition to that category. I still prefer where I can sit and eat inside, but that’s just me… The inside was bright and clean, a good […]
Native Noodles
We had a fun opportunity to join a virtual event in April, where the owner of Native Noodles showed us how to cook one of their most popular dishes, Laksa Noodles. Even though I haven’t actually cooked the dish (yet), I was very curious to go and try it ourselves. Native Noodles offers Singaporean dishes, […]
Thai Diner
One of the Thai restaurant that we really enjoyed in the past was Uncle Boons. They were very popular and with its small interior, it was not easy to get a seat on a busy night. Unfortunately, they closed its door permanently during the pandemic… The sister restaurant, Thai Diner has survived, and they offer […]
