While we were in Japan at the beginning of 2023, my sister took us to Hayashiya Chaen in Meguro, Tokyo. They focus on Japanese tea, and also serves desserts made with their special teas. From reading about them, they want to serve the “real” tea to their customers, without dressing it up, just simple, pure, […]
Ever since we first visited Kudo Society Cafe in Palisades Park, NJ, we became instant fans of their food! When we heard that they opened another location in Teaneck, NJ, we decided to see how they are like. At our first visit in early May, we were greeted by one of those fun inflatable air […]

I love finding a new cafe with delectable baked goods and desserts. During my stay in Boston, I found a cafe that quickly became my favorite. I visited Tatte Bakery & Café in Back Bay, super early in the morning. They had nice outdoor seating, but it was not the perfect outdoor day (just yet), […]
Let’s bringing in the new year with a new spot that opened in November. We have been waiting for them to open for a while. It looked awesome from outside, and when we peeked their inside design from the outside before they opened, it looked even more awesome. When they finally opened up, we were […]
