Since our very first visit at Maison Pickle, it has become our instant favorite. We did go back the second time to see if it all just a delicious dream, and they proved to us that they are indeed real! So, it was only fitting that we made time to dine here right before NYC […]
I’ve been to HARBS on 3rd avenue, and HARBS in Chelsea, and we find the Chelsea location better, since their menu seems to be bigger, and it is somehow more relaxing. We took others there at HARBS Chelsea several month ago, and they enjoyed the food and desserts as well. We really like their lunch […]
After having a fun brunch with friends at Vinatería, we walked around the Central Park and Morningside Park to burn some calories. Then, we decided to get some desserts nearby. We decided to check out The Hungarian Pastry Shop, popular among any and all writers, for some sweets. It was crowded, but we managed to […]
I love having a brunch burger. Well, I do have a weakness for most burgers… I saw a photo of a tasty burger from Set L.E.S. somewhere, which was totally drool-worthy, so we decided to go check them out for a brunch. We arrived a few minutes before they opened, and there were handful of […]
We visited Vinatería for brunch about a month ago. They offer upscale Italian- and Spanish-influenced dishes. We went there right when they opened, so it was almost empty. They had a large bar right at the entrance, with a real chair instead of bar stool chairs. The inside was actually a bit smaller than I […]
When we went to see a movie at Regal Theater next to Essex Market, we decided to check out the market. It used to be a dingy, low-ceiling market called Essex Street Market. It went through a beautiful renovation, and now have more light, more space, and higher ceiling. It had so many shops and […]
Ice cream is good, but what’s better than ice cream? Boozy ice creams!!! You might say ice cream is not in season during cold months, but nothing like tasty, boozy ice cream to warm you up from the inside… Here at Tipsy Scoop, you can get just that! Tipsy Scoop offers ice cream flavors infused […]
Ever since I saw a photo of cute Japanese doughnuts from The Dough Club, I have been wanting to go and try them. They are located in Chinatown, right next to the popular Taiyaki NYC, a Japanese ice cream shop, served in taiyaki, or fish-shaped waffle cone. That makes total sense, since they are both […]
We recently discovered this lovely restaurant Spoon Table & Bar that had tasty-looking brunch offerings. We love brunch, but we went to check them out for dinner instead. The exterior of the restaurant was unassuming, yet very inviting with the warm light flooding out from their floor-to-ceiling window. We were greeted as soon as we […]
Ever since I traveled to Portugal with my mother more than a decade ago, I became a fan of Portuguese food and desserts. One of many great things about living in NYC is that you can get food from all over the world! Some authentic, some fusion, some with a twist, some with creative, modern […]
