Just as we promised, we went back to this marvelous diner, the king of all the diners (to us, at least), Lou Roc! Our last (and our first) visit was so incredibly amazing (you can read about it here: http://www.foodlovergirl.com/lou-rocs-diner/), we just had to go back for more! You can also read about the background […]
Maroo
We only go to Upper East Side when we have to, so we don’t know that many restaurants around there. So, when we need to eat and it happens that we are in UES, we have to do some research. Luckily, I am good at finding restaurants with good food… This time, I found this […]
Bastille Day Festival
There is always something fun or exciting happening in this great city. Last month in July, we went to Bastille Day celebration right by Central Park, and their Champagne and Chocolate Tasting. We were so excited to go since we haven’t been to Bastille Day celebration in NYC before. Bastille Day, also known as French National […]
Kellogg’s NYC
There is always something new popping up in NYC. A recent newcomer, also called one of the “weirdest” opening of this Summer (2016) is the Kellogg’s NYC. I always loved cereal, especially Kellogg’s cereals. So, we decided to check them out. It sits in the heart of Times Square, great location for getting lots of […]
Patty’s Berries and Bunches
After a nice, relaxing time at Harbes Family Farm (you can find it here: http://www.foodlovergirl.com/harbes-family-farm/), we decided to do some fun activity right across the street. What fun activity, you might ask? Strawberry picking! We saw a few “pick-your-own” places, but then we heard Patty was one of the best spot for strawberry picking. So, […]
Harbes Family Farm
After visiting the last vineyard on the wine tour, led by Jo Ann of Vintage Tours, she took us to Harbes Family Farm before she dropped us off at each destination. She told us about their Apple Cider Donuts, and Kettle Corn. It was quite lovely, with lots of flowers, plants, and produces. I […]
Ruth’s Chris Steak House
I was invited to an event here at Ruth’s Chris Steak House. This restaurant was not on my radar, I was excited to try their food and see what they were all about. It is always good find a nice restaurant in Midtown or Theatre District, where they are filled with tourists and those touristy restaurants […]
Macari Vineyards
The last stop of our wine tasting tour, provided by Vintage Tours was Macari Vineyards. This was the biggest vineyards of all the four places we visited, with 200 acres. As soon as we drove up, I could tell it had a lot of land. they had nice wooden structure, with outdoor seating to the […]
Shinn Estate Vineyards
The third winery we went during the Vintage Tours was called Shinn Estate Vineyards. Our tour guide, Jo Ann told us that they also offer bed and breakfast right behind the winery, which was very interesting… Maybe a good option for my future? Another interesting fact about this spot is that they have solar and wind […]
McCall Wines
This was the second winery we visited during the Vintage Tours. It is a lovely, quaint winery, and they have been growing and sellig mainly Pinot Noir and Merlot since the mid 90s. As soon as we got out of the Vintage Tours’ van, I was so intrigued by the look of this place. Before […]
