When we traveled to Seattle, we wanted a place to have a nice. We were feeling something Asian, and we found an interested spot. It is a dim sum restaurant located inside a shopping mall called Pacific Place. The food court was on the top floor, and this spot was tucked away at one corner. […]
This is a little unique one since not everyone can get access to it. But, if you are a graduate student, postdoctoral researcher, or specific faculty – or you know someone who is one of these – then you are in luck. This is one of the several cafe spots at the main Columbia University […]
I enjoy a nice bowl of poké every now and then. I had a few from The PokéSpot (you can read about it here: http://www.foodlovergirl.com/the-pokespot/ ), but I have been eyeing on this spot with high ratings. We happened to be just in the area, so we decided to check it out. It was much smaller than I […]
No matter how many different cuisines from all different countries in the world, my true love for the food would still remains to be Japanese food. You gotta love the food you grew up with, the kind of food with warm memories of your mom and grand-mom cooking for you. And when I miss that […]
Mifune is one of my favorite Japanese restaurant in the city. We had several amazing meals here (you can read about it here: http://www.foodlovergirl.com/mifune-new-york/, http://www.foodlovergirl.com/mifune-new-york-2/ ), and brought a few people here too. And yes, they all enjoyed the food. I have been wanting to try their lunch menu ever since they started to offer lunch during […]

The literal translation of that is “because I have a dream.” It is located inside the Lesley building at Porter Square. They have some shops and other eateries in the inside. They all share a public rest room. Yume Ga […]
Right across the George Washington Bridge over to Fort Lee, NJ is where you can get good Korean food at affordable prices. And, from what I hear, most of them are much more authentic than some other spots. I remembered having a really good authentic Korean soft-tofu soup long ago down South, I wanted to […]
I love Japanese izakaya, and I have been wanting to visit this spot for a while now. Since they don’t take reservation, and with its popularity, we haven’t had the chance to visit…until now! We decided to get there little before they open for the evening, and they already had some people lined up in […]
We enjoy some soup dumplings every now and then. My friend told me about this spot a while ago. While we were in the area one weekend, we decided to try their soup dumplings. It is located inside a shopping center, doesn’t really have a huge sign outside, and mainly Korean stores in the shopping […]
