D’avant Bakery

February 14, 2019February 16, 2019 Food Lover Girl

While looking for a bakery with some breakfast options that opens early, I came across this spot. Growing up in Japan, I always loved Japanese bakeries. Here in metropolitan NYC, I found that some of the Korean bakeries offer similar baked goods and other food items. And this one was one of them in NJ. […]

Brownstone Pancake Factory

January 24, 2019January 24, 2019 Food Lover Girl

We were looking for a brunch spot that opens early. I mean, really early. I found this spot that opens at 7am! Works for me! They had a parking lot, but not very large. They do valet parking that starts maybe one hour or so after they open? When we arrived shortly after they opened, […]

Yamagata

August 4, 2018July 27, 2018 Food Lover Girl

No matter how many different cuisines from all different countries in the world, my true love for the food would still remains to be Japanese food. You gotta love the food you grew up with, the kind of food with warm memories of your mom and grand-mom cooking for you. And when I miss that […]

BCD Tofu House

June 26, 2018June 24, 2018 Food Lover Girl

Right across the George Washington Bridge over to Fort Lee, NJ is where you can get good Korean food at affordable prices. And, from what I hear, most of them are much more authentic than some other spots. I remembered having a really good authentic Korean soft-tofu soup long ago down South, I wanted to […]

Soup Dumpling Plus

June 7, 2018May 17, 2018 Food Lover Girl

We enjoy some soup dumplings every now and then. My friend told me about this spot a while ago. While we were in the area one weekend, we decided to try their soup dumplings. It is located inside a shopping center, doesn’t really have a huge sign outside, and mainly Korean stores in the shopping […]

Phillips Seafood

May 24, 2018May 25, 2018 Food Lover Girl

When you travel a lot for business, the challenge for looking for a good food at airports become harder and harder… On my early flight out of Newark airport, I decided to find an actual restaurant that is open early, instead of resulting to a fast food place. I decided to try Phillips Seafood since […]

City Perch Kitchen + Bar #2

February 22, 2018February 22, 2018 Food Lover Girl

This was our second visit to this restaurant (you can read about it here: http://www.foodlovergirl.com/city-perch-kitchen-bar/). Our first visit was a pretty good experience, we had a nice brunch. So, we came back here to have another brunch. We again had their brunch special that comes with a drink of your choice. It is called the Brunch […]

12 Islands Greek Taverna

January 18, 2018January 16, 2018 Food Lover Girl

My coworker friend told me about this Greek restaurant, and they came with high reviews. The great thing about a restaurant in NJ is that they can get pretty big size land, with a big parking lot. This restaurant was kind of screaming out Greek with the blue and white, and their flag alongside American […]

Mitsuwa Marketplace #3

January 12, 2018January 5, 2018 Food Lover Girl

Going to shopping for Japanese groceries at Mitsuwa and get some Japanese food while we are there has become one of our fun weekend activity. We don’t do that every weekend, but when we do, the first thing we talk about is “from which place are we going to get food from this time?” We […]

Shinpo Korean Eatery #2 – CLOSED

December 24, 2017November 27, 2021 Food Lover Girl

This is our second visit to this eatery (you can read about it here: http://www.foodlovergirl.com/shinpo-korean-eatery/). This time, we made sure to come after 11am, so that we can order from the regular menu, and not restricted to their small morning menu. The regular menu is also limited, but pretty enticing to us. Out of all, […]
