As a dessert lover, I have always been curious about this dessert festival, Dessert Goals. I didn’t get to purchase the ticket last year before all the ticket got sold out within minutes…so, this year, I was ready and I got the tickets! Also, they doubled up on their tickets, which helped as well. I […]

Vicky’s Diner – CLOSED
I first found this little diner three years ago. I was having lunch on my own at the counter, and the owner, Vicky was there with a friendly smile on a warm, quiet, peaceful day. It was a very memorable visit, because the peacefulness came to an abrupt end when I realized that they are […]
Beiler’s Doughnuts
When we visited the Reading Terminal Market, we found this lovely doughnut spot with a long line. My hubby wanted to get some doughnuts from here, so we decided to get in line as well. They have been making the doughnuts the Amish way for 30 years, each one hand rolled, and of course, made […]
Dutch Eating Place
One of the spots we really wanted to visit while our trip to Philadelphia was Reading Terminal Market. It is kind of like Chelsea Market in NYC, but bigger and wider. We wanted to get some food from here, and with so many options, it was not easy to pick just one spot… We decided […]
Tanner Smith’s #2
This is our second visit to Tanner Smith’s, and we went to very early brunch. Well, what we didn’t realize is that they do “breakfast” and not brunch from 8am – 11am. However, it seems like they were changing out the menu from breakfast menu to brunch menu at 10:30am, around the time we were […]
Oyster House
While traveling to Philadelphia, we went to get some $1 oysters at Oyster House during their Happy Hour. It seemed like this is a well-known and popular spot. It was Friday evening, and happy hour started at 5pm. We got there close to 5:30pm, and it was quite busy with the happy hour crowd. The […]
Federal Donuts #2
I’ve had Federal Donuts before (you can read about it here: http://www.foodlovergirl.com/federal-donuts/), but I haven’t had them at their shop, super fresh. Also, we heard about their delicious chicken sandwich, so we decided to go for a visit. They have a few locations, and we picked the one that is in more of a residential […]
The Wayfarer
I was tasked to find a table for three for Friday night in Midtown at the last minute. I was looking for a restaurant in specific area within Midtown, that offers variety of food selection without crazy price tag. And of course, the food had to be good. Yes, this task was not easy, not […]
City Perch Kitchen + Bar #2
This was our second visit to this restaurant (you can read about it here: http://www.foodlovergirl.com/city-perch-kitchen-bar/). Our first visit was a pretty good experience, we had a nice brunch. So, we came back here to have another brunch. We again had their brunch special that comes with a drink of your choice. It is called the Brunch […]
CookUnity
It is not easy to have a lunch prepared for work everyday, but yet you don’t always have time to go out for lunch. On such days, you can get them delivered, but if you want to think about healthy and tasty meal, the option might be limited… But this is NYC, the city where […]
