I enjoy a nice bowl of poké every now and then. I had a few from The PokéSpot (you can read about it here: http://www.foodlovergirl.com/the-pokespot/ ), but I have been eyeing on this spot with high ratings. We happened to be just in the area, so we decided to check it out. It was much smaller than I […]

Yamagata
No matter how many different cuisines from all different countries in the world, my true love for the food would still remains to be Japanese food. You gotta love the food you grew up with, the kind of food with warm memories of your mom and grand-mom cooking for you. And when I miss that […]
The Blue Box Cafe
Anyone who is a fan of Audrey Hepburn, or Tiffany accessories, then you know about The Blue Box Cafe. And if you didn’t know, yes, you can have “Breakfast at Tiffany” well, that is only if you can get a reservation. Getting a reservation here is so difficult, it took me a while to actually […]
Bravo @ Museum of Fine Arts
We were visiting Boston during one of the “Free Days” at the Museum of Fine Arts. They had a long line to get in, seems like lots of art lovers were trying to take advantage of the free day. It is a nice, large museum with many different kinds of art pieces from all over […]
Wave Hill
This is a hidden gem in Riverdale, New York. A bit far to get there from the center of Manhattan, but it is so worth the trip for a nice, quiet relaxation. It is a 28-acre estate overlooking the Hudson River. The estate has two houses and a botanical garden, but much, much smaller than Brooklyn […]
Mad Hatter’s G&T Party – Pop Up
In New York, there is always something new to do and see, and new shops and restaurants opening up all the time. That also means that some shops and restaurants are closing very often too. It is a tough city to make it… But then again, there are some unique spots that opens for a […]
Boucherie Park
I had a pleasure of dining at their original spot in West Village about a year ago (you can read about it here : http://www.foodlovergirl.com/boucherie/). Now that they have a secondary location in Gramercy Park, we went to check it out. The restaurant was easy to spot with bright red awnings. The inside was astonishingly […]
Blue Hound Kitchen & Cocktails
One of the spot that I found during my research was also one of the recommended spots by locals. It is located at the CityScape, on the upper level. They have both stairs and escalators from the sidewalk. The main lobby area seems to be sharing space with the hotel right next door, Kimpton Hotel Palomar […]
The Black Rooster Cafe
When I attend a conference for work, I must say, the food provided at concession inside the convention center is…well, not great. So, I looked for a place where I can grab a lunch outside the convention center. The one that was nearby with raving review. I went over little before 2pm, without realizing that […]
The Arrogant Butcher
During my business trip to Phoenix, Arizona, I got to explore the downtown food scene a bit. The first one I visited was The Arrogant Butcher, interesting name that came with high reviews. It was a nice weather, and they had a good amount of outdoor seating. I took these photos in the morning time, […]
