One of the benefits of flying with JAL in Premium Economy is that we get to have access to their airport lounges, Air France Lounge at JFK Airport (you can read about it here: http://www.foodlovergirl.com/air-france-lounge-jfk/), and Sakura Lounge at Narita Airport. I first used Sakura Lounge in 2015 (you can read about it here: http://www.foodlovergirl.com/jal-sakura-lounge/), and this is […]
One of my favorite theaters is iPic Theater (you can read about it here: http://www.foodlovergirl.com/ipic-theater-hudson-lights/ and here: http://www.foodlovergirl.com/ipic-theater-hudson-lights-2/ ). There is a huge restaurant connected to the theater, who also serves food in the theater. Even though we ordered food off the in-theater dining menu, we never actually dined in the restaurant. So, we decided to have an […]
During our visit to Japan, one of the top places we wanted to go was Ghibli Museum, and dine at their Straw Hat Café. We are a big fan of their animated films, and I heard such great things about this museum from my family. The admission ticket is not easy to get, so we […]
Ever since this restaurant opened up in July of this year, I have been very curious about them. Then, when I was in Japan during late Summer, I met with chefs who knows and worked with the Executive Chef at Mifune! So, I really had to go for a visit. It had a clean, modern […]
One of the spots that my hubby really wanted to go while we were in Japan was this cafe called Reissue. It is located on a second floor of a concrete building on a narrow street. Even though it is very close to the center of Harajuku with crazy amount of people and store, it […]
This is my second review of Olio e Piú (you can read about it here: http://www.foodlovergirl.com/olio-e-piu/). We had such a great time the first visit, we went back for more. We decided to sit inside this time, and it was quite lovely. Still, quite tight with tables and chairs put closed to each other, and […]
I have been a fan of L.A. Burdick Chocolate ever since my love brought me a surprise sweet gift from here, several years ago. They have all sorts of handmade chocolates, from Bonbons, Truffles, Caramels and few other delectable and adorable items. They moved to its current location on Prince Street a little while ago. […]
Japan has a lot of awesome izakaya restaurants. It is a Japanese pub with small plates of food, like tapas, that you share with your family and friends. My foodie sister took us to one izakaya that specializes in chicken. This place is a local favorite mom & pop eatery, for more than 30 years. What […]
When we visited Kakegawa Castle while our trip to Shizuoka, we visited their Japanese Tea Room on the premises. Kakegawa Castle was originally built about 500 years ago. However, most of the castle was destroyed in the big earthquake of 1854. It was rebuilt in 1944, and it was the first castle Japan to be […]
This post might be kind of random, and it will be a short one. Regardless, when I find anything that is tasty, I say it deserves attention! This is another one of my foodie sister’s recommendation. She knows good food, good desserts, and good drinks. Moreover, she does care about healthy food options too. This […]
