We have been to their Speakeasy a year ago (which I need to write about it soon), but we haven’t had the chance to visit their restaurant until now. KEI (Izakaya and Ramen) offers Izakaya dishes, ramen, and other Japanese dishes. We went off hours so it was not busy, but this place can get […]
Still catching up from a while ago… We went to the Peak with Priceless Restaurant & Bar for Thanksgiving celebration. If you are wondering where the part “priceless” comes from, it is from partnership with MasterCard. If you book via MasterCard, you get some perks. It is located on the 101st floor, and most of […]
When we were in Tokyo, I wanted to go to this really cool, intriguing coffee shop called Sukemasa Coffee. It was a bit hidden in a peaceful spot, behind a busy street of Asakusa, right by Hanayashiki amusement park. Their photos looked really interesting, and I was very curious to check them out. We first […]
This spot called BKK New York opened in Spring of 2025. We got to visit about a year from the opening to try their Bangkok dishes. When you walk in, you see a rather large bar, fully stacked, then table seating going all the way to the back. It is kind of narrow and long […]
I am so behind on writing about all the places I have been to in the last year or so… But still want to spread the words on the great dining places we visited, so here we go! We discovered this gem of a restaurant last fall, called Sesamo, offering Italian-leaning dishes. We were going […]
I have been interested in this spot for a while, and we finally got to visit their Union Square location! It is set up like a regular fast-food joint, with order/pick up counter, and table seating. Not so big, but had enough seating. Since it is a fast-food restaurant, the turnover is quick. The interior […]
We visited Black Mtn. Burger in 2017. We had a nice comfort food there. We went back to Black Mtn. Burger again to try out more of their food. We thought we got there after the lunch rush, but when we got there a little after 2pm, we were told there will be about 30 […]
During our mini trip to New Hampshire, we visited The Moon Cafe & Bakery for breakfast. They are open early, and located inside a small indoor mall. They can be accessed from the inside the mall, and also from the outside as well. It was bigger than I thought in the inside, with a good […]
I can’t believe how long it’s been taking to write about Penny Jo’s… I am really backed up with the places! We found Penny Jo’s when we were looking for some happy hour spots. Sadly, Penny Jo’s no longer offers happy hour specials, but we were still interested to go since their menu looked enticing. […]
While vising Japan during the winter, we had loads of fun activities. One of the unique experiences we had was Matcha & Wagashi Making Class (2,570 yen/person). My gourmet sister found it (of course), and we attended the class with her and my brother-in-law. The class was offered by Japanese Culture Experience An Tokyo. The […]
