It is interesting how color affects our taste buds, and also our appetite. With so many food made for photos nowadays, it gets our curiosities high, and expectation of a good time also high. I have been wanting to try out Dylan’s Candy Bar since I have seen some yummy looking photos. We finally made […]

Harney & Sons #2
Since I visited Harney & Sons two years ago with my sister (you can read about it here: http://www.foodlovergirl.com/harney-sons/), I have become a big fan of this place and their tea. It is a good place to get some tasty teas for us, and also gifts for others. They had the window decorated with fun […]
Paris Baguette @ Hudson Lights
One of the best thing about Japanese cuisine is their quality of desserts. It is not always easy to get them here in the US. Paris Baguette is not Japanese pasty café, but they are similar to Japanese sweets and breads. And, they are quite affordable, and for this reason, I like to visit them […]
Lalito
This is another awesome Tasting Collective dining club event we attended. (You can read about the previous posts about Tasting Collective events here: Fish Cheeks, Win Son, F.O.B., Xixa, Huertas, Bessou, Maharlika, and Traif). Tasting Collective is a dining club for food lovers, and they offer brunch and dinner at great NYC restaurants. They close […]
The Common Man
When we are traveling to a place you haven’t been before, trying out restaurants in the area is one of the most fun thing for us to do. Out of all the places we found, this place took first place by wooing our hearts (and stomach). We liked it so much that we dined here […]
Amorino
Nowadays, there are many restaurant and shops that focuses on making “photogenic” food or desserts. I wonder sometimes if the flavor suffers, by putting too much focus on how they look… Anyways, I saw this dessert place that had very pretty dessert, and I finally made it. This is a gelato spot, not ice cream. […]
IchiUmi
IchiUmi is a “Japanese Sushi and Seafood Buffet” located in Korean Town, right above Ichi Cellar (you can read about it here: http://www.foodlovergirl.com/ichi-cellar/ ). I have been to IchiUmi once, several years ago, and I was not impressed. But, my hubby got curious when he heard what they claimed to be, an all-you-can-eat sushi and seafood. The […]
Elmer’s Restaurant
It is always fun to look for a new restaurants when you are traveling. One place that popped up on our radar was Elmer’s with unique breakfast offerings. It seems that they have several locations, and they have been in business for 50 years, impressive! We heard that they will be some wait, as they […]
Udderly Delicious Ice Cream Shop
Beautiful hot Summer day and cold ice cream go together so perfectly like peanut butter and jelly. While visiting Lincoln NH, we tried out one of their ice cream spots for a little afternoon sweets. They had an impressive pink banner right outside indicating so many flavors of soft serve that they offer. Intrigued… I […]
Great Shakes
On a super hot Summer day, what do we crave? Ice cream! So, we went looking for a nice ice cream spot. We saw a nice shake place, and thought, “shake would be even nicer than ice cream!” Instead of stepping into the first shake place we saw, we decided to explore the area to […]
