I have had this place on the back of my mind for a while. Anytime I hear about a great dessert place, they make it on my list. And sooner or later, I will make my way over to try some of their sweet concoctions. This place, obviously form their name, focuses on pies. It […]
This is a new restaurant that opened up around May 2016. It comes with high review, and therefore, not easy to make a last minute reservation on weekend. We were lucky enough get one by becoming early birds. We don’t mind eating dinner early, that gives more time to digest before going to bed! It […]
We wanted to get some upscale, fancy Indian dining, and I found this spot. It was said to be kind of a hidden gem, and I could see why. On the day of our reservation, we walked right pass it, and couldn’t find it! It has very “quiet” sign, not super noticeable. Some may say […]
Going to a movie is always fun, especially to a dine-in theater. I have been a fan of Nitehawk Cinema (you can read about them here: http://www.foodlovergirl.com/nitehawk-cinema/ and http://www.foodlovergirl.com/nitehawk-cinema-2/) in Brooklyn, with interesting movies, events, and good food. I recently heard about this brand new movie theater, who is determined to provide you the “ultimate” movie […]
I have been wanting to go to an Indian buffet, and there are many restaurants that offers just that, but I wanted to find a one with high review. During my research, I came across this restaurant Chola, which seem to have a pretty good rating. The exterior is surprisingly modern, and it looked kind […]
I love sweets and I do have a weakness for doughnut, as most of people I know. I hate it when people post a beautiful photos of super yummy looking doughnuts, and then I see that the store is somewhere really far away… When I first heard about Doughnut Plant few years ago, I was […]
We met up for lunch with one of our friends who has been a New Yorker for almost 90 years. When we asked about a good Indian restaurant in his neighborhood, this is where he recommended. When a foodie who is nearly three times your age recommends a restaurant, you trust it! So, off we […]
We went to a grand opening of the Grand Bazaar NYC, weekly market located on the Upper West Side. The great thing about this market is that the profits from the market donates 100% of its net revenue to four neighborhood public schools, benefiting over 4,000 children by providing them with art enrichment programs, books, supplies, […]
This is the second review of this sweet spot (you can read my first review here: http://www.foodlovergirl.com/chocnyc/), we had to go back get some more sweet goodness. This time, I was going for their eclairs. They looked glittery gold sweet jewel in the refrigerated show window. We chose Pistachio and Chocolate Éclair ($3.75/each) to go so […]
It is always interesting to visit “the oldest” establishment, such as restaurant. I feel like they either stay completely authentic, or become a tourist spot, losing its authenticity. I found one of those “oldest” kind, the oldest French bistro in the Theatre District. It was founded in 1948, and still owned and managed by the […]
