One of the best culinary destinations we’ve been to was New Orleans. We had such fun and delicious time there… I was introduced the po’ boy. It was pretty darn great! I’ve had different kinds of po’boys from other places, and it always brought back the nice memories from NOLA. At Grand Central Oyster Bar, […]
When I think of Cuban food in NYC, the place that comes to mind is Havana Central in Times Square. I was lucky enough to attend a delicious event there in several years ago, and another even the following year. We discovered another Cuban spot called Sophie’s Cuban Cuisine. They have several locations, and we […]
I enjoy going to dim sum places, and always order some sort of steamed dumplings or Bao. You just can’t leave without having one or both of them! I’ve had some tasty ones from Nan Xiang Xiao Long Bao, Yaso Tangbao, Jing Fong Restaurant, and Golden Unicorn. The bao offered at the BÀO Tea House is […]
Now that we are heading our way towards somewhat the “normal” life (even though we still have a long way to go), we are starting to explore more places! As I mentioned in The North End Food Hall post, we have some pretty nice food halls everywhere. And, it seems like we are getting more […]
Since the City is trying to go back to somewhat “normal” life, I know many of us are thinking of losing the horrid pandemic weight… No more “lounge wear” and back to fabulous clothes, or REAL work clothes. And they might be a bit tight for some reason…they must have shrunk during the pandemic! Healthy […]
If you read my previous blog about The North End Food Hall, you know it is in the “soft opening” phase right now. But, I am here to tell you, now you can get some tasty food! Only one vendor, Harlem Public is fully operational right now, but I hope other vendors will be joining […]
At the height of the “food hall” craze, which actually lasted several years before the pandemic, we gained many food halls across NYC. We have Turnstyle Underground Market, The Pennsy, Essex Street Market, and so many more. The latest news before everything shut down was The North End Food Hall, all the way up in […]
For the last few years, I have been hearing and seeing more “flagship” stores coming to NYC. Which is a bit surprising, as flagship usually requires large space, and NYC is very tight when it comes to real estate…but there is always opportunities for business who wants to have their flagship store in the heart […]
Since we didn’t really venture out much during the pandemic, we haven’t cry visited Brooklyn for over a year. This fabulous and cozy little café, Ciao Bella Coffee seems like the right spot to go for our first visit to Brooklyn! They have been opened for about a year, which must have been tough to […]
Ever since the popular Japanese pancake shop, Flipper’s came to NYC, I have been wanting to go and try their famous soufflé pancakes. But, they always had a long line, and I was waiting until the line is much shorter, or better, no more line. We finally got to go to Flipper’s, with no line, […]
