One of our favorite spots to get some clothes would definitely be UNIQLO. We have gone to so many UNIQLO shops everywhere. While we were visiting Japan, my sister told us about UNIQLO COFFEE at the newly renovated flagship store in Ginza. The coffee shop opened in 2021, and I heard their coffee and snacks […]

Blue Cafe
While we were in NJ, we found this very popular restaurant called Blue Cafe. Seems like we are finding places with “cafe” in their names in NJ lately…such as Cafe HESED, and Cafe Lala. Let’s see how Blue Cafe is like, shall we? The place was packed with a handful of people waiting outside. Luckily […]
Steak Frites Bistro
Since the pandemic, we haven’t really had the opportunity to take an advantage off of the Restaurant Week promotions. This winter, we finally got to try the Restaurant Week menu at Steak Frites Bistro. They offer bistro cuisine such as oysters, escargot, onion soup, and of course, steak frites. As soon as you step inside, […]
Cafe Lala
We found this lovely place called Cafe Lala in NJ when we were looking for a brunch spot in NJ. They opened not too long ago. They have some parking right in front of the cafe, and also behind the building from what I understand. It is a part of Lee Park Plaza, small outdoor […]
NUAGE ET VENT
After about 3 and a half years later, we finally were able to go back to Japan! It was a long time coming… And yes, we had some amazing meals in Japan! One of the best culinary experiences we’ve had was at a restaurant called NUAGE ET VENT, which means Cloud and Wind. The name […]
Uproot
We went to Uproot back in May of 2022. Yes, I am still trying to catch up! We needed a place for lunch, and this spot looked like a great one. We didn’t have a reservation, but since it was a weekday, it was not busy at all. They had a nice high ceiling, with […]
Alimama Tea
Since we love good Cream Puffs, this spot has been on my radar for a while… We finally got to check it out! It is a small spot, with an outdoor eating area right in front. The artwork on the outdoor eating area was colorful, really cute and comical. The inside was equipped with several […]
Çka ka Qëllu
We recently went to Çka ka Qëllu, a rustic restaurant offering modern Albanian and Kosovan dishes. I knew they had Bronx location, which seems to be even more authentic when it comes to the interior and atmosphere. But then again, the NYC location is easier to get to, so we tried the NYC location. The […]
Contento
This is another awesome Tasting Collective dining club event we attended back in March 2022.

Tasting Collective is a dining club for food lovers, and they offer brunch and dinner at great NYC restaurants. They close off […]
Salvatore’s Ristorante
The last restaurant we visited last fall before we headed back home was Salvatore’s Ristorante. I say we did great job finding amazing restaurants during this trip, such as Beach Road Restaurant and The Pawnee House. We did, however, had some not-so-great dining experience as well, which I will not mention… We were hoping for […]
