This was our second visit to this Irish joint, Dead Rabbit. We took someone who would enjoy this restaurant and the Irish food, and I think we did an excellent job. This time, we went all the way up to the third floor, to The Occasional Room. This room is described as a party or […]
I am a fan of Dominique Ansel Bakery, and I have visited Dominuque Ansel Kitchen twice (you can read about them here: http://www.foodlovergirl.com/dominique-ansel-kitchen/ and http://www.foodlovergirl.com/dominique-ansel-kitchen-2/ ). I even visited the ones in Japan (you can read about them here: http://www.foodlovergirl.com/dominique-ansel-bakery-omotesando/ and http://www.foodlovergirl.com/dominique-ansel-bakery-ginza/ ). But yet, I still haven’t visited Dominique Ansel Bakery in NYC…until now. With its crazy […]
I have been a fan of L.A. Burdick Chocolate ever since my love brought me a surprise sweet gift from here, several years ago. They have all sorts of handmade chocolates, from Bonbons, Truffles, Caramels and few other delectable and adorable items. They moved to its current location on Prince Street a little while ago. […]
We had an opportunity to attend NYC Wine & Food Festival, Backyard BBQ event ($175/person). It was at the rooftop of Pier 92, and held on Sunday evening. It was their 10th anniversary, so I heard it was extra festive this year. When we got there, it was already busy with lots of people, and […]
One thing we enjoy doing on our way to Japan is visiting airport lounges. Not all the lounges are excellent, but it is better than waiting for your flight at the gate. We booked our flights with JAL, and like so many other airlines, JAL was partnering with Air France Lounge. It seemed like all […]
This is my second review of this Shake Shack location. (You can read about my first review here: http://www.foodlovergirl.com/shake-shack-uws/) We went back to this location for a very specific reason: to get their limited time only shakes! Will & Grace-themed shakes!!! They have two kinds of shakes in honor of the return of the show. One […]
I am not a big fan of fast food restaurant, so I rarely get food from any of them unless I don’t have much option (like at an airport). I don’t remember the last time I willingly went to a fast food restaurant… But, when I am in Japan, I do get the desire to […]
Here is a loooong overdue review of the two sweet shops at Wizarding World of Harry Potter in Universal Studios in Florida. The best gift to buy while at theme park (in my opinion) is candy and chocolate. I have families and friends who appreciate these type of gifts so much more than mug or […]
If “Foodllovergirl = sweets” and “Summer = cold, icy treats” then what do you get? Gelato! We headed over to Popbar in West Village for some of their Popgelato. They have been on my radar for a while, but haven’t really gotten around to visiting…until now! The inside is pretty small, just enough room to […]
While my stay in Santa Fe, my favorite spot for breakfast and lunch was this cute boutique bakery and cafe called Sweet Lily Bakery. It was right next to the hotel, so it was really easy to get to, and I love that they have made-from-scratch items that changes on daily bases. They offer good variety […]
