I love Japanese taiyaki, and there are similar snacks from Japan and other Asian countries. When we went to have sum dim sum in Flushing, I found a place that sells “Taiwanese wheel cake” which are quite similar to Taiyaki, but in a round shape. It is located inside the small mall called Landmark Quest […]

GupShup
We went to an event here at GupShup, an upscale Indian cuisine, inspired by old Bombay. Still new, less than one year since they first opened their door. I was excited to see what they are all about, and sample some food! The restaurant is on the small side, it was quite busy on Monday […]
Nan Xiang Xiao Long Bao
We do enjoy good dim sum every now and then. There are so many dim sum options in Chinatown, like Jing Fong and Golden Unicorn. However, some say that you must travel a bit further away, to Flushing, to get even better options, including better pricing, more dish offerings, and more authentic dishes. When we […]
Inwood Bagels
I am not a huge fan of bagels, unless it is a really good bagels… I saw this spot with great varieties of bagels, and it seems like a popular spot. So, we decided to check them out one weekend. It had a rather small storefront, but with signs right out side, it was easy […]
Golden Unicorn
I attended a really cool event, Lunar New Year Banquet at Golden Unicorn. I have never been to Golden Unicorn, but they have been on my radar, so I was excited for this event. We had their second floor for the event, and it was all very festive! The vibrant color of red and gold […]
Circa Brewing Co.
We ventured out to Brooklyn for a brunch, to Circa! I was excited about this spot, as it is a fully functioning brewery and pizza restaurant. We don’t drink often, but we certainly enjoy drinking quality beer, wine, cocktail and everything else tasty! They had a small seating before the main entrance door, but I […]
Kaikagetsu NYC
This spot has been on my radar since they opened in the Summer of 2018. They have been in the restaurant business for 20 years, they have their original location in Japan. We went on chilly evening, not too long after they opened for the day, so it was pretty quiet. They had a few […]
Putnam’s Pub & Cooker
We visited this relaxing yet elegant gastropub in Brooklyn for a brunch. It looked quite large from outside, sitting on a corner not. They had a nice big outdoor seating too, that goes around the pub. The inside was really nice, had the feeling of antique with the old photos on the walls and books […]
Dough Doughnuts
Throughout NYC, mainly at coffee shops, I have seen delectable doughnuts from Dough. I always enjoyed their doughnuts, large, fluffy and tasty. I finally got to visit one of their locations, instead of coffee shops that sell their doughnuts! The one on 19th Street was a good size, especially for a doughnut shop. It was […]
Daily Provisions
I have been wanting to get some tasty looking doughnuts from there, but we always get there too late… Seems like their doughnuts are a bit too popular. So, we decided to go there for some real food, and not doughnuts. The inside is quite small, as this is not a restaurant, but more like […]
