When we first visited Pickle Jar Kitchen a few years ago, we became big fans. We have been wanting to go back, but haven’t had the chance…until now! It was good too see they are still popular with the locals, and open during most of the Winter months. Although, they do close for a few […]

Brownstone Pancake Factory
We were looking for a brunch spot that opens early. I mean, really early. I found this spot that opens at 7am! Works for me! They had a parking lot, but not very large. They do valet parking that starts maybe one hour or so after they open? When we arrived shortly after they opened, […]
Soprano’s Casino by the Sea
Soprano’s have had their restaurant in Mashpee, MA, but they recently added a new location, “Casino by the Sea.” Although it says “casino” in the name, it is not a casino in any way. It is a restaurant, with a gorgeous view of the water during the day. As it was during the holiday season, […]
Dough Doughnuts
Throughout NYC, mainly at coffee shops, I have seen delectable doughnuts from Dough. I always enjoyed their doughnuts, large, fluffy and tasty. I finally got to visit one of their locations, instead of coffee shops that sell their doughnuts! The one on 19th Street was a good size, especially for a doughnut shop. It was […]
Revolution Health kitchen
While traveling for business, I have been trying to find a healthy spot to get some green juice/smoothie. Right near the Hynes Convention Center, I found this great wellness-focused spot. They offer juice, smoothie, soup, bowl, and snack made with whole food, plant-based ingredients. They only had few seats by the window, as they are […]
Jigger’s Diner
We love finding an old-school diner, especially the one still in an original dining car. We found another one in Rhode Island! This dining car–style restaurant serves American breakfast and lunch. The name Jigger’s come from the original owner, who’s nickname was Jigger. The inside is small, as expected for a dining car. Narrow and […]
Daily Provisions
I have been wanting to get some tasty looking doughnuts from there, but we always get there too late… Seems like their doughnuts are a bit too popular. So, we decided to go there for some real food, and not doughnuts. The inside is quite small, as this is not a restaurant, but more like […]
Wingtips Lounge @JFK – CLOSED
When you are traveling by air, it is always good to have access to an airport lounge to relax before or after the flight. And, in most cases, you do get free food and drinks. While traveling to Seattle, we used the Wingtips Lounge at JFK. It is open 24 hours which is great, but […]
Flour Bakery + Cafe
While staying in Boston for business, I found this bakery right by the hotel. It was convenient, and seemed to be popular, so I decided to try them out one late morning. It was a good size for a bakery, good amount of seating, although it was not always easy to get a seat there […]
Woops! @ Winter Village at Bryant Park
Every year during the Holiday season, we go visit several of the holiday markets around Manhattan to look for gifts for family and friends. And yes, for ourselves too… I think the holiday market at Bryant Park, Bank of America Winter Village, is one of the largest, and one of the most visually stunning one […]
