While visiting Bainbridge Island off Seattle, we decided to get some ice cream. On a hot Summer day, nothing can beat a good ice cream… And this spot seemed like a popular spot. They had a nice indoor space, as well as outdoor seating. It is always nice to have a seating space, especially on […]

Proper Fish
While visiting Seattle, we decided to go have a fun day trip to Bainbridge Island. We do enjoy a nice ferry ride anywhere! Even though the distance from the Seattle port to Bainbridge is not that far, it took more than 30 minutes. The ferry moved pretty slow…well, it was nice and steady because of […]
Shaker + Spear
When you are traveling to a city filled with tourists, it is better to go to a restaurant that is a bit away from the center of it all, say, like Pike Place Market. We wanted some kind of seafood for lunch, and we found this upscale restaurant, connected to a Kimpton Palladian Hotel. The […]
The French Bakery
I love breakfast and brunch, so while I am traveling, I always look for a nice breakfast/brunch spot. When I was staying in Bellevue WA, I found this nice bakery that serves breakfast every day. It was inside a large glass building, very modern looking. Inside was bright with loads of natural light, with a […]
Dos Toros
I went to a fun and tasty event at one of Dos Toros location in NYC, at 40th and Madison. This location is still relatively new, modern look with clean lines and spacious room. The super high ceiling adds to the spacious feeling, as well as light earth-tone and mirrors, creating more open feel to […]
Rachel’s Ginger Beer
We found the best spot for my hubby, a ginger beer lover. It is a spot where they offer handcrafted ginger beer in a range of flavors on tap, including floats and cocktails made with them. The inside was like a little green oasis with lots of earth colors, woods, and plants. Beautiful and relaxing atmosphere. […]
Biscuit Bitch Belltown
Nowadays, “farm-to-table” is all the rage. But here at Biscuit Bitch, they are all about “Trailer Park to Table: Southern Inspired Fixin’s and Kickass Espresso.” Intrigued? They have three locations in Seattle, and we visited one at Belltown. It was a holiday, thinking that they won’t have much of a line… But I was so […]
Casa Alitalia Lounge @ JFK
When we traveled with JAL in the past, we used to go to Air France Lounge at JFK. However, it seems like JAL has changed its lounge partner to Casa Alitalia, almost right next to Air France Lounge. We never used Alitalia lounge before, so we were both curious and a bit worried… We were […]
Standby
While I was in Detroit, there were a small handful of places that I really wanted to visit. This spot was one of them. From looking at their menu, it seemed it would be better if you could go with group of people to share small plates… So, I managed to get one of our […]
Roast
While traveling to Detroit on business, we had a nice business dinner. The restaurant of choice was Roast, in which I hand-picked after some serious research… I have a reputation to uphold! We had a reservation, and a nice, friendly hostess greeted us and took us to our table. They had a large bar near […]
