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 […]
One of the spots that kept coming up during our research for the Portland, OR trip was Voodoo Doughnut. Seems like a very popular doughnut spot for locals and tourists alike. We love a good doughnut, and we thought the name was interesting too. It was easy to find, with bright pink exterior and a […]
During our visit to Portland Oregon, one of the places I was most excited about was Papa Haydn. Why? Because They seem to have loads of amazing looking desserts! Yet, upon my further investigation (Yes I do love to investigate a spot before we go and dine…), I saw that they also have tasty looking […]
While vising Portland, my hubby really wanted to have the special cocktail at Huber’s Cafe. Furthermore, Huber’s Cafe is Portland’s oldest restaurant and bar, founded in 1879, known for roast turkey and Spanish coffee. The entrance is slightly trick to find. You must first locate a barbershop next to Huber’s Cafe, and enter through a […]
In July, we went to New Hampshire to take in all the nature. During our trip, we went to a restaurant with a spectacular view. The Switchback Grille is located high atop the mountain slopes of Bretton Woods. To get there, you get to take a scenic Gondola ride, which was really fun! I can […]

We heard great thing about their offerings, so we decided […]
During our trip to Portland Oregon in June, we definitely wanted to visit food cart pod spots like Tokyo Sando, but also, there were a few classic spots we wanted to visit. One of them was called Gilda’s Italian Restaurant, with a soft “g” which is a name of an Italian Grandmother. You can find […]

We went to Portland, Oregon in June of 2024. It was my first time visiting, and I heard lots of great things about the food scene here. Also, I was interested in their food truck culture, or food cart pods. We went to one of the food cart pod spots, called the Midtown Beer Garden, […]
We like to arrive at any airport early when traveling by air, so that we can get through all the check-in, security, finding the gate, etc., then relax at an airport lounge. I did write about our experience at Casa Alitalia Lounge @ JFK, No.1 Lounge @ Heathrow Airport, JAL Sakura Lounge 2017, etc. in […]
