As I searched for a good Australian restaurant, I found this place with cute name, Thirsty Koala in Queens. With high ratings, we headed out for Australian Brunch! We arrived few minutes after they opened, and we were welcomed by a giant fluffy koala and baby koala, all ready for Halloween. The inside was […]

Metro Burger Bar @ Laguardia Airport
Finding a good food at any airport is always a struggle. I have almost given up hope, but at the same time, I am always hopeful. At Laguardia airport, there was not many options around my gate… I was wanting to have something big, a substantial meal, instead of small little croissant or muffin. I […]
Café Sabarsky
I finally got to visit one of the dessert spots I have been eyeing on for a while, Café Sabarsky. It is located inside the Neue Galerie as their café, and named after the co-founder of Neue Galerie. We have actually haven’t had the opportunity to look inside the German and Austrian Art museum…we will […]
Petee’s Pie Company
I have had this place on the back of my mind for a while. Anytime I hear about a great dessert place, they make it on my list. And sooner or later, I will make my way over to try some of their sweet concoctions. This place, obviously form their name, focuses on pies. It […]
Jordan Snack Bar & Burger
Here is another new spot that opened up in this area after Wahizza (you can read about it here: http://www.foodlovergirl.com/wahizza/). Just like Wahizza, it is more of a take out place. They had no space for eating in the inside. They had crazy amount of “grand opening” banners when they opened, and brought in good amount […]
Tamarind
We wanted to get some upscale, fancy Indian dining, and I found this spot. It was said to be kind of a hidden gem, and I could see why. On the day of our reservation, we walked right pass it, and couldn’t find it! It has very “quiet” sign, not super noticeable. Some may say […]
Le Baratin
Since the very first I had Croque Madame many years ago, I have been a big fan. I have had many Croque Madame at many different restaurants/cafes. Some good, some not-so-good, and some amazingly delicious ones. It is just such a nice, comforting dish, especially for brunch. Few months ago, I found this French bistro-cafe-bar […]
Wahizza
I always get excited when there is a brand-new restaurant or eatery opening up. So, when I first saw the sign that said “Pizzeria coming soon” I decided that I will be the first one (or, more realistically, “one of” their customers) to be there on the day they open. The week before they opened, […]
Chola
I have been wanting to go to an Indian buffet, and there are many restaurants that offers just that, but I wanted to find a one with high review. During my research, I came across this restaurant Chola, which seem to have a pretty good rating. The exterior is surprisingly modern, and it looked kind […]
Cafe Katja
This place has been on my radar for a while, and after attending a fun event in Lower East Side, we decided to head over for dinner. It didn’t have a large, visible sign, but instead, it had an intricate metal sign. It brought out antique feel to it, I liked the old-fashion style. They […]
