I first visited Grand Central Oyster Bar with my mother almost 10 years ago. Since then, I had the pleasure of visiting them several times, including their super fun Oyster Frenzy event. The Oyster Bar first opened its doors in 1913, where it used to be an old and rundown train depot on the lower level […]
I like a place with history, or place that incorporates history in their own way. I found this place that provides fun Brunch called the Tipsy Tea, where you get a choice of entrée and a choice of one spiked teapot, containing two servings of cocktails. The price of this Tipsy Tea themed Brunch comes at […]
When I found out that my husband had never had Peking Duck, I had to get him to have one. I have had really good Peking duck, and and then not-so-great Peking duck, and those were such huge difference that I knew that I had to take him to a really good place. After my […]
Since my mother was coming for a visit during Thanksgiving holiday, I looked for an afternoon place that we haven’t been to. Then, I found a coupon for this spot called The House in Gramercy. We both like Gramercy, and with its interesting history behind it, I was very intrigued. Then, I found a coupon […]
I visited this restaurant/lounge for a fun event. It is a place more known for night life, with belly dancers and good drinks. It was decorated inside and out for the Holiday season, very festive! Our event was upstairs, so I didn’t get to see the main floor. There was a small middle-level floor with […]

I enjoy Spanish food and Spanish tapas, especially their seafood. I found this Spanish tapas restaurant, who also is opened for brunch. Their food looked really good, so we decided to head over for some good tapas for brunch. From the outside, it didn’t really look like much, and seemed really small. Good thing it […]
At the hotel we stayed during our trip to Orlando Florida, Hilton Orlando Lake Buena Vista, they had a few restaurant inside the hotel. Benihana was one of them, and they seemed like a popular spot. I have been to Benihana couple of times a long time ago, and I was not a fan. Or […]
This was my second visit to The Dickens Tavern, again with my colleagues for business dinner (you can read about my first post here: http://www.foodlovergirl.com/the-dickens-tavern/). I am not going to write the details about the restaurant this time, but you can find the background of this fun establishment on my first blog. We were there […]
In NYC, we can always find some kind of fun event. Here is another one, an annual event called “Pickle Day.” If you are a pickle lover, or just curious about what this event is all about, then get to it next year! And before you go, here is some information about the event, so […]
