One evening during my business trip, we were going to have a big group dinner. It was going to be total of 12 people, so I thought it was going to be a challenge to get a reservation for party of 12. Luckily, the restaurant of our choice was large enough to accommodate a reservation […]
I had the opportunity to visit this restaurant for a fun event. I haven’t become a big fan of Mexican food, but I do enjoy high quality, tasty Mexican cuisine. I haven’t heard of this restaurant before, but then again, us New Yorkers tend avoid midtown filled with tourists like a plague sometimes…LOL. And, this […]

I found this interesting, small restaurant that provides Latin dishes with a Mexican twist. That got my curiosity enough to venture out to the area I usually don’t visit. The inside is pretty small, so it gets packed pretty quickly. The fact that they are a popular spot also helps, of course. It has exposed brick […]
We discovered this cute little pastry shop, where they offer fresh pastries and Mexican food. I was just looking for some afternoon sweets, so the name “Sweet Life Pastry” sounded like a perfect fit. The inside was small, with a few table seating, but seems like not many people actually eat in, so should not have […]
Delicious spot in Chelsea Market for Japanese-Mexican street-food mash-ups. They serve Japanese inspired Mexican food, creating interesting dishes by combining two cuisines with deep, rich, and unique cuisines. Take it easy and sit at the bar while enjoying their delicious food. You can also take it to go if you are in a hurry. We got 2 Bento Boxes […]
