The benefit to booking economy flight ticket would be the price. The benefit of purchasing (or upgrading to) Premium Economy flight with JAL? The access to their wonderful lounge! This is one of those things where “you didn’t know you needed/wanted it until you found out of the existence of it.” I never had the […]

Cline Family Cellars
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 […]
Lady M Confections Boutique
One of the most delicate desserts out there (to me) is mille crêpes. They are so rich, sweet, and elegant… You can find them at many places including restaurants and cafe, but my favorite so far is the one from Lady M. I think many others feel the same way, because it is almost always […]
Basque Boulangerie Café
It is always good to have a nice cafe in a neighborhood, where the locals can gather and relax while enjoying each other’s company. And if the cafe has really good coffee or sweets, or both, then it will be even better. While we were in Sonoma Valley, we found this cafe with lots of […]
Sonoma Wine Shop
There are numerous numbers of wineries and wine shops to do a little tasting everywhere in Sonoma Valley. If you really looked, the list is endless, which is never a bad thing. Lots of options, lots of different kind of wines, lots of new experience… It certainly is a fun adventure! We visited one of […]
Nakajima no Ochaya
When you are in a middle of “concrete jungle” a.k.a. busy city with high risers and not much greenery, you start to crave the peaceful scenery with lots of trees and flowers, and just simply want to be surrounded by beautiful greens. Such place do exist in Tokyo as well, it might not be as […]
Jus by Julie
If you are thinking of dieting or losing weight, or simply wanting to be healthy for the new year, doing a juice cleanse can be a good way to jump start. I usually do juice cleanse once or twice a year, and I have been relying on Jus by Julie since the very beginning. There […]
The Little Sweet Cafe
I like a little cafe with local regulars, or a cafe that just look so cute and inviting. This cafe was one of those. The inside is small, with that very warm, cozy feeling. Not many tables, around 5 or 6, and the ones against the brick wall had bench seating on one side, and […]
Ichi Cellar
I discovered this hidden bar/lounge through a fun event. It is located underneath the IchiUmi, which I have been to once several years ago, and I was not very impressed. When I was looking for Ichi Cellar, I was surprised to find the location, but if you look at the name of IchiUmi and Ichi […]
Jacuzzi Family Vineyards
We went on to some vineyards tour of our own, with wine experts friends of ours. We were expecting to have lots of fun, lots of wine, and lots of great vineyard experience! We were very excited to visit vineyards in Sonoma Valley, because we love wine, and going there with a serious wine lovers who […]
