We were looking for a brunch spot near Javits Convention Center. We actually walked over to another place that was just a few blocks away, opened much earlier in the morning. But, when we got there, there was a crowed of people waiting for their seat outside the door, so we decided to go somewhere […]

Lakeside Bar & Grille
It is always interesting to find a restaurant that is popular among the locals. That should mean good food at good price, or at least I think that is the secret recipe for local’s choice. We found one here called Lakeside Bar & Grille. It is a local sports bar, and while we were there, […]
LB’s Bistro & Pâtisserie
Most big hotels have more than one restaurants to offer a few dining options to their patrons. When I stayed at Sheraton Grand Chicago, I was glad to find more than one restaurants in the hotel. I dined at Shula’s Steak House (you can read about it here: http://www.foodlovergirl.com/shulas-steak-house/) for dinner at the hotel, and then […]
Shula’s Steak House
When you are traveling, and have a really tight schedule, you don’t always have time to look for a new, exciting places to eat. Even if you have the time to look up a few places, you might not have the time to actually go to one. In this case, what you wish for is […]
b. good
I have had a pretty good burger and fries from this place in the past, we went back for more. They are a health-conscious versions of fast-food chain restaurant. I like burgers and fries, but I know they are not so healthy… So, I appreciate anyone who is trying to come up with a healthy […]
Chef Art Smith’s Homecomin’
It is time to talk about my favorite restaurant in Disney Springs. When we were in Orlando, we visited several restaurant nearby Disney World and Universal Studio. This one I think was our favorite of them all. Homecomin’ offers Southern, farm-to-table cuisine, while highlighting local ingredients. They have handcrafted moonshine cocktail (which we didn’t get to […]
Summer House Santa Monica
While traveling to Chicago, I was again faced with the usual challenge – finding good or decent food at the airport. When I landed, I was very hungry, as it was a very early flight and I didn’t eat any breakfast before departing JFK. As I walked towards the ground transportation, all I saw was […]
Apothéke
Even though I love cocktails, I don’t really go to bars for drink. I occasionally have a cocktail or two at dinner, but that’s about it. But, a place I do enjoy visiting is a speakeasy. Thankfully, New York City has many speakeasy bars that you can visit. Recently, I found another one called Apothéke. […]
Kitchenette Uptown #2
This is my second review of Kitchenette, you can read about my first post here: http://www.foodlovergirl.com/kitchenette-uptown/ Kitchenette is still a popular spot in this area, it is cute, good breakfast/brunch menu, and there are not many other brunch options around here. I always liked the way they look from the outside, with bright blue awning with […]
Alamo Drafthouse Cinema
I really enjoy dine-in theater, especially if it is a unique theater or dining spot. So far, Nitehawk and iPic Theater are my top favorites (you can read about Nitehawk posts here: http://www.foodlovergirl.com/nitehawk-cinema/ and http://www.foodlovergirl.com/nitehawk-cinema-2/ and about iPic posts here: http://www.foodlovergirl.com/ipic-theater-hudson-lights/ and http://www.foodlovergirl.com/ipic-theater-hudson-lights-2/). I have been waiting for this new theater, Alamo to complete construction and open up in Brooklyn for a […]
