My business trip took me to Detroit, and I don’t remember the last time I was in Detroit… The city has grown, and still is growing, with more business and improvements throughout the city. This was a very short trip, but I still managed to visit one café for a breakfast one morning. The inside […]
While traveling to Detroit for business, I have a few opportunity to try some nice restaurants. On the first evening, I went out with a small group of people from Japan. They usually are taken to steakhouses, for that is what they are familiar with when they travel to the US. Now, I wanted something […]
I hope everyone had a fun Memorial Day weekend! We have done many fun things over the years during the 3-day-weekend, but one of the top, best, and most delicious experience we’ve had was at Maison Premiere. They have a bit of Speakeasy feel to it, since there is no actual sign, other than the […]
While traveling to Minneapolis on business, I had one opportunity to eat out. I had several places I wanted to check out, but I had to choose just one…which was not easy. It was for lunch, and I was craving some kind of comfort food. This spot stood out from the crowd with one of […]
I love well-crafted, high quality, and fancy cocktails. I prefer cocktails over beer, wine, and even bubbly. The whole history, creativity, and art of making cocktails are fascinating to me. I attended a fun event at a furniture showroom in SoHo, a mixology class! At the event, they had two mixologists (a.k.a. bartenders), teaching us […]
While staying in Marco Island, I did some research on happy hour deals. Many places offer happy hour, but it seems like the happy hour at The Oyster Society is one of the best. So, we went to check it out. One of the hostess was a bit rude when we entered…but that didn’t stop […]
Marco Island has plenty of dining options, both casual and upscale. We visited one of the upscale restaurant for dinner. Marco Prime is located at a mall, where they have several other restaurants, movie theater, and Beebe’s Ice Cream shop. This restaurant did not have any noticeable signage outside, so you just have to know […]
Down in the Sunshine State, ice cream shops are a must! After trying some tasty delights at Beebe’s Ice Cream, I was ready for more… I found this spot was another popular spot in Marco Island, so we headed over there in the evening after dinner. It is not as conveniently located as Beebe’s from […]
We went to Island cafe for dinner. It was still a bit early, so it was nice and quiet. They are located at Collier Plaza, and had plenty of parking. Since they are at the left end of the plaza, they didn’t have much of any foot traffic other than the customers coming to this […]
When you are in a hot, humid weather, the best thing to have is…ice cream! We went to Beebe’s on one evening around 8pm, and it was quite busy. I guess everyone had the same idea… It is located at a busy mall with many restaurants, some stores and a movie theater. When we went […]
