While I was searching for a place that sells sweet treat, I came across this cheese shop – a quite unlikely place for sweets. What I was after was some macarons, and yes, they had them!

Diner and their food can be quite comforting sometimes. On this day, we were planning to go to another restaurant, but they were full, so decided to try this diner nearby.

There is this Italian restaurant, some people refer to it as a hidden gem. I have been there a handful of times, always with the regular, so we receive an excellent, friendly service at all time. This is not a quick lunch grab kind of a place, more of a nice, relaxing, long lunch (or […]
When you think “Mexican Food” you might just think of tacos, chips & salsa, and margarita, the old-fashion, home-cooked style.
