Here is a loooong overdue review of the two sweet shops at Wizarding World of Harry Potter in Universal Studios in Florida. The best gift to buy while at theme park (in my opinion) is candy and chocolate. I have families and friends who appreciate these type of gifts so much more than mug or […]
If “Foodllovergirl = sweets” and “Summer = cold, icy treats” then what do you get? Gelato! We headed over to Popbar in West Village for some of their Popgelato. They have been on my radar for a while, but haven’t really gotten around to visiting…until now! The inside is pretty small, just enough room to […]
Since I tried a Korean owned and operated Sushi restaurant in Santa Fe, I had to visit the one that is Japanese owned and operated. It didn’t have much of any signage on the outside, so it was not easy to spot this place. You have to be facing the door to see the modest […]
This is my third visit to this dessert heaven. (You can read about my previous visits here: http://www.foodlovergirl.com/eclair-bakery/ and http://www.foodlovergirl.com/eclair-bakery-2/) They still have all the yummy looking freshly baked goods and desserts… I hope this place never closes down! And of course the eclairs… I am so glad we don’t live near here, as we would be […]
So, we are back to our favorite themed cafe, once again! (You can read my previous visits here: http://www.foodlovergirl.com/rue-la-rue-cafe/ and http://www.foodlovergirl.com/rue-la-rue-cafe-2/ ) Actually, this is for the last two visits combined. Since they have expanded their hours and menu, we wanted to try a few items that we haven’t tried yet. Another new thing is that they […]
While my stay in Santa Fe, my favorite spot for breakfast and lunch was this cute boutique bakery and cafe called Sweet Lily Bakery. It was right next to the hotel, so it was really easy to get to, and I love that they have made-from-scratch items that changes on daily bases. They offer good variety […]
Another trip out of JFK, and another hunt for, well, decent food. With all the money they spend on airports, why can’t they have more decent eateries at airports??? Unfortunately, If you don’t have access to one of those fancy lounges, we are stuck with not-so-great food. One thing they have is the convenience of […]
It is interesting how color affects our taste buds, and also our appetite. With so many food made for photos nowadays, it gets our curiosities high, and expectation of a good time also high. I have been wanting to try out Dylan’s Candy Bar since I have seen some yummy looking photos. We finally made […]
When I visited Santa Fe for business, I was excited to try out some new food there. As I walked around, I realized how “touristy” the town is, which was not so great… They had gift shops after gift shops, and restaurants with pricey Mexican type food items. Since I am not really a big […]
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 […]
