I was looking for a lunch spot in SoHo area, and I found an interesting spot called YUBU. It is a small Korean casual eatery, and they focus on Yubushobap. They have a good amount of seating, including a cute little window seating too. What I didn’t know is that yubu means “tofu skin” in […]
We went to have a brunch at one of the Ruby’s Cafe at Soho location last summer. Yes, I am still catching up from last year… They don’t take reservation, and so there might be a little wait when you go there during the peak time. The SoHo location is the only spot we’ve visited, […]
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, […]
While I was doing my research on fun places to eat and drink in London before our trip, I discovered that London has a good number of Speakeasy Bars! I wanted to visit as many as we could during our short trip. One of the top speakeasy bars I found was located inside Milroy’s – […]

Each areas look great, with all sorts of antique-elements everywhere. We were there for the Underground to have some jolly-fun inside a train! Their “Underground Station” is a quirky 1940s-themed bar, offering illicit cocktails […]
I have been a fan of L.A. Burdick Chocolate ever since my love brought me a surprise sweet gift from here, several years ago. They have all sorts of handmade chocolates, from Bonbons, Truffles, Caramels and few other delectable and adorable items. They moved to its current location on Prince Street a little while ago. […]
Since I visited Harney & Sons two years ago with my sister (you can read about it here: http://www.foodlovergirl.com/harney-sons/), I have become a big fan of this place and their tea. It is a good place to get some tasty teas for us, and also gifts for others. They had the window decorated with fun […]
