We went to Georgia for a short trip in March, and we went to this lovely Paulk Vineyards for wine tasting. It was much bigger than I expected, and along the way to get to Paulk Vineyards, all we saw was field and field of vineyards! We went on Monday after lunch time, so it […]
We had a tasty opportunity to try out some of the dishes offered at Kalye at an event. They opened in 2022, when the city and the world is coming back from the struggles of pandemic. It is described on their website that their name, Kalye, “comes from the Tagalog word for “street.” We chose […]
One place I really wanted to go while visiting Japan was this little place called MUM Cafe. I found it on social media, and I was very excited about it. With our busy itinerary, we managed to go towards the very end of our vacation. And even better, with my parents! It was located in […]
I found this lovely spot from my parents in 2019. I was so looking forward to revisiting Kamameshi Hana when we return to Japan. Finally after a long wait due to pandemic, we got to go back to Japan and to Kamameshi Hana! Japan is still very careful with the virus, so most people are […]
We first visited Set L.E.S. in 2020, and I remember how amazing the Bulgogi Burger was from there. We liked the fun and vibrant atmosphere, the food, and drink. Now in 2023, we finally got to revisit again. They now have a huge outdoor seating, with bright yellow chairs. It is fully covered, so you […]
I know, you are wondering why I am writing about the place that is now closed since we visited in January 2023? Well, they still have shops, pop up stores, markets, and park. You never know when they re-open the Moomin Cafe again! (Hoping and wishing bigtime here). We made it to the Solamachi location […]

When we went to get some adorable Totoro cream puffs from Shiro-Hige’s Cream Puff Factory, we had to find a lunch spot, since the cafe at the Cream Puff Factory was full with a long wait. We walked around, looking at all the options, until we found this spot with enticing photos of hamburg steaks […]
One of the places we missed visiting the last time we were in Japan was Shiro-Hige’s Cream Puff Factory. This time, we made sure to visit for some adorable cream puffs! If you are a huge Ghibli fan like us, you really must have their cream puffs, shaped in Totoro! They now have two locations, […]
I just realized that I missed the first spot that my gourmet sister took us on the fun outing day in Tokyo! Since it was such an epic spot, I had to make sure to write about them. It is called Kajitsuen Libre, also known as Kajitsuen Fruit Parlor. My sister told us about how […]
