The very first restaurant we visited during our trip to Japan was a brand new restaurant callled Mokichi Kamakura. They are owned and operated by a Sake Brewery (how cool is that?), and this is their newest Mokichi location, just opened in December of 2022. My brother from another mother took us to this spot, […]
Since the pandemic, we haven’t really had the opportunity to take an advantage off of the Restaurant Week promotions. This winter, we finally got to try the Restaurant Week menu at Steak Frites Bistro. They offer bistro cuisine such as oysters, escargot, onion soup, and of course, steak frites. As soon as you step inside, […]
We found this lovely place called Cafe Lala in NJ when we were looking for a brunch spot in NJ. They opened not too long ago. They have some parking right in front of the cafe, and also behind the building from what I understand. It is a part of Lee Park Plaza, small outdoor […]
When we travel to Japan, we usually use Japan Airlines (JAL). I know some people prefer other airlines, but JAL has been good to us… You can read about our past experience in 2015, 2017, and 2019 also. We flew to Japan at the end of the year 2022 and came back after the New […]
We went to have a brunch at one of the Ruby’s Cafe at Soho location last summer. Yes, I am still catching up from last year… They don’t take reservation, and so there might be a little wait when you go there during the peak time. The SoHo location is the only spot we’ve visited, […]
We go to NJ for grocery shopping at some of the Asian Supermarkets. One of them is H Mart in Little Ferry, and there is this lovely spot called Cafe HESED that serves breakfast, lunch, desserts, and other light bites. We started to go there in April of 2022, relatively soon after they first opened. […]
After about 3 and a half years later, we finally were able to go back to Japan! It was a long time coming… And yes, we had some amazing meals in Japan! One of the best culinary experiences we’ve had was at a restaurant called NUAGE ET VENT, which means Cloud and Wind. The name […]
I have many loves when it comes to food. One of which is a good burger. For that reason, Emily has been on my radar for a long time. You might think that they are more of a pizzeria, and yes, they do offer pizza, and obviously pizza loves Emily according to their cute neon […]
We went to Uproot back in May of 2022. Yes, I am still trying to catch up! We needed a place for lunch, and this spot looked like a great one. We didn’t have a reservation, but since it was a weekday, it was not busy at all. They had a nice high ceiling, with […]
Since we love good Cream Puffs, this spot has been on my radar for a while… We finally got to check it out! It is a small spot, with an outdoor eating area right in front. The artwork on the outdoor eating area was colorful, really cute and comical. The inside was equipped with several […]
