When I traveled to Phoenix Arizona, I made sure to do some research on restaurants in the downtown Phoenix to make sure I have a delicious trip! The hotel I was staying at had a handful of dining options inside the hotel, but none of them stood out. So, I started with breakfast spots nearby […]
I first found this little diner three years ago. I was having lunch on my own at the counter, and the owner, Vicky was there with a friendly smile on a warm, quiet, peaceful day. It was a very memorable visit, because the peacefulness came to an abrupt end when I realized that they are […]
One of the spots we really wanted to visit while our trip to Philadelphia was Reading Terminal Market. It is kind of like Chelsea Market in NYC, but bigger and wider. We wanted to get some food from here, and with so many options, it was not easy to pick just one spot… We decided […]
This is our second visit to Tanner Smith’s, and we went to very early brunch. Well, what we didn’t realize is that they do “breakfast” and not brunch from 8am – 11am. However, it seems like they were changing out the menu from breakfast menu to brunch menu at 10:30am, around the time we were […]
I was looking for a nice breakfast that opens early morning, and located near Carnegie Hall. After some searches, I came across this spot. They are a cafe and also a shop. We went late Autumn, so it was decorated for the season from inside and out. The inside is not big, but rather small […]
Before we went to Japan, we saw a TV clip of this place in Tokyo Station. We really, really wanted to go there, so made sure that we will be in Tokyo station one morning. I heard that they get lines in the morning, even before they open up at 7am. We didn’t go quite […]
We found this newly opened Korean eatery in Fort Lee. It seemed like they are fast-served, affordable, simple menu spot. It was clean and spacious, and when we walked in, a staff welcomed us from behind the counter and helped us order. They had drinks in an ice container right in front the ordering counter. […]
I’ve had my share of hotel breakfast buffet in my life, and say most of them were just A-OK. Nothing too special… But, this breakfast buffet offered at Dormy Inn Express has changed my view of what they could be. It certainly has been the BEST I’ve experienced thus far, hands down. I was traveling to […]
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 […]
While my stay in Santa Fe, my favorite spot for breakfast and lunch was this cute boutique bakery and cafe called Sweet Lily Bakery. It was right next to the hotel, so it was really easy to get to, and I love that they have made-from-scratch items that changes on daily bases. They offer good variety […]
