It is always exciting when a new restaurant opens up, especially if they are gong to offer a cuisine that you really like and enjoy. My favorite cuisine is Japanese, the best kind of food in the world (and Anthony Bourdain agrees)! One of the best Japanese comfort food, especially during Autumn & Winter seasons […]

Go! Go! Curry! Times Square
One of the best Japanese comfort food to me is Curry. It is tasty, savory, lots of different types, ingredients, veggies, and it is so good any season of the year. There is a small Japanese restaurant that does curry and curry only. They have grown to 4 locations in the city now. It is […]
Saggio #2
This is my second review of Saggio. (You can see my first review at: http://www.foodlovergirl.com/saggio/) This place was so warm and tasty that we went back for more. They have hand-written special menu of the day, addition to their regular menu. What they offer on the special menu of the day is almost always recommended […]
Jacques Torres Chocolate
I love chocolate. I don’t understand the ones who say otherwise. How can you not love chocolate, am I right? A pastry chef, Jacques Torres, started a chocolate store in Brooklyn, where everything is made from scratch. It is one of my favorite “local” chocolate here in NYC. From all the cute and tasty little […]
Katsu-Hama – 47th
There are 2 Katsu-Hama locations in NYC, one on 47th and another one on 55th. I have been to both locations, and I do feel and believe the one on 47th is more “traditional” with interior decoration, service, and the staff who works there (Japanese staff). Most of the basic offerings are the same, but […]
Gunbae
Korean BBQ is always a great choice for lunch and/0r dinner. BBQ itself is fun, but being able to do so at the table with your family and friends while you eat can be even more fun. One thing that Korean BBQ can offer that is different from others (I think) is the way they […]
T-swirl crêpe
They call it the “best Japanese crepe in NYC.” However, it is not clear if they originally came from Japan. The owner is not Japanese, so I believe they took the concept of Japanese crepe, and brought it to NYC. It seems that Japanese crepes have become a bit popular in NYC, there are few […]
Shake Shack @ UWS
Yes there are several Shake Shack in the city, and each place offers something different. It could be the view, the decor, the service, or a special menu, while getting that yummy food that they offer. At the Shake Shack on Columbus Ave, we were surprised with a really good service. We have been there […]
Saiguette
In NYC, you can get access to authentic, tasty food from all over the world. If you are in a mood for Vietnamese food, I suggest you head over to Saiguette. They are my favorite Vietnamese restaurant (so far) in the city. It is a small place, but has some seating, but the stools (which […]
Café Buunni
Café Buunni is a coffee, tea, espresso bar, also serving smoothies, frappes, and some baked goods. There are not many coffee shops around this area, so it seems to be popular. Inside is rather small, has just one big table for people to share, and a small bench by the window, and counter with seating on […]
