One of my favorite restaurant styles to visit is Izakaya. It is a Japanese pub with small plates of food, like tapas, that you share with your family and friends. I have been to several Izakaya in NYC, and when I think of the top three, Riki always takes the spot light in my mind. […]
One of the interests I have when it comes to food and drinks is visiting Speakeasy. I love discovering a little secret hideaway. Although, Speakeasy nowadays are not so hidden nowadays, and not so secret anymore either. Still, it is still a fun experience to go visit one. One of the Speakeasies that was on […]

It is a cute little spot, with simple while exterior and menu displayed on a wooden crate-looking sign. Having some green against it made it extra inviting. The inside […]

Going to a Yakiniku (Japanese BBQ) place is always fun. You get to have fresh food that you cook to your preference with friends and family. Here at Gyu-Kaku, you get to have some fun with loved ones while grilling your own meats and veggies at your table. They have few locations, and we went […]
Oh how I missed you my sweet, delicate, heavenly eclairs… Ever since I visited this amazing spot right at closing time (you can read about it here: http://www.foodlovergirl.com/eclair-bakery/), I have been dreaming about their eclairs. I love eclairs, and I have had my share of disappointments with very small amount of filling, or not so tasty […]
