Ever since the popular Japanese pancake shop, Flipper’s came to NYC, I have been wanting to go and try their famous soufflé pancakes. But, they always had a long line, and I was waiting until the line is much shorter, or better, no more line. We finally got to go to Flipper’s, with no line, […]

Thai Diner
One of the Thai restaurant that we really enjoyed in the past was Uncle Boons. They were very popular and with its small interior, it was not easy to get a seat on a busy night. Unfortunately, they closed its door permanently during the pandemic… The sister restaurant, Thai Diner has survived, and they offer […]
Konbini – Temporarily Closed
Ever since they officially opened toward the end of 2019, I have been wanting to visit Konbini. The name “Konbini” comes from a Japanese term, shorten from “Convenience Store” like Seven-Eleven. If you ever been to Japan and visited one of many convenience stores there, you know how awesome they are! If you haven’t then […]
Burger Heights 2020
We first tried Burger Heights in 2017, and we became a fan of their burgers and shakes. Dining out during the COVID time has been tough, and therefore, we haven’t really gone out to eat as much this year. Same for food deliveries, we don’t usually get deliveries to begin with, and that part didn’t […]
Maison Pickle #3
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 […]
HARBS Chelsea #3
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 […]
The Hungarian Pastry Shop
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 […]
Set L.E.S.
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 […]
Vinatería
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 […]
Heros & Villains
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 […]
