Anyone who is a fan of Audrey Hepburn, or Tiffany accessories, then you know about The Blue Box Cafe. And if you didn’t know, yes, you can have “Breakfast at Tiffany” well, that is only if you can get a reservation. Getting a reservation here is so difficult, it took me a while to actually […]
Mifune is one of my favorite Japanese restaurant in the city. We had several amazing meals here (you can read about it here: http://www.foodlovergirl.com/mifune-new-york/, http://www.foodlovergirl.com/mifune-new-york-2/ ), and brought a few people here too. And yes, they all enjoyed the food. I have been wanting to try their lunch menu ever since they started to offer lunch during […]
We were visiting Boston during one of the “Free Days” at the Museum of Fine Arts. They had a long line to get in, seems like lots of art lovers were trying to take advantage of the free day. It is a nice, large museum with many different kinds of art pieces from all over […]
This is a hidden gem in Riverdale, New York. A bit far to get there from the center of Manhattan, but it is so worth the trip for a nice, quiet relaxation. It is a 28-acre estate overlooking the Hudson River. The estate has two houses and a botanical garden, but much, much smaller than Brooklyn […]
We like visiting an old diner that has been in business for a long time, with lots of loyal local customers. We found one in Brooklyn when we visited Brooklyn Museum. This diner is family owned operated since 1936! And yes, is quite popular among the locals and alike. We were excited to get some […]
I get cravings for good Japanese or Japanese-esque food when I am traveling. While I was in Boston, I looked for a good Japanese type restaurant, and this one seemed the most interesting to me. I as started to walk towards the location of the restaurant, I realized I was walking into China town. So, […]
We love it when we find a brand-new spot that just opened up recently. This wine bar opened a few months ago, and since we really enjoy a good glass (or bottle) of wine, we went to check it out. They offer natural wine and genuinely seasonal dining, hence, their menu for both wine and food […]
In New York, there is always something new to do and see, and new shops and restaurants opening up all the time. That also means that some shops and restaurants are closing very often too. It is a tough city to make it… But then again, there are some unique spots that opens for a […]
One of the breakfast place that I really wanted to visit while I was in Boston was Mike & Patty’s. They had photos of super tasty looking sandwiches, and yes, with rave reviews. I finally had the time to visit them right before I had to go back home to NYC. It was at a […]
We were looking for a breakfast spot in the Bay Ridge area in Brooklyn. To my pleasant surprise, they had many great options! Out of all the attractive places, we narrowed it down to this spot. They actually have several locations, all in Brooklyn. They do state that they are “Born & Raised in Brooklyn.” […]
