While we were in Japan over the winter holidays, we stayed a couple of nights in Tokyo. On our first night there, we were walking around, looking for a place for dinner. After going to a spot that has not opened for the new year just yet, we kept walking around, until we found this […]
We found this lovely place called Cafe Lala in NJ when we were looking for a brunch spot in NJ. They opened not too long ago. They have some parking right in front of the cafe, and also behind the building from what I understand. It is a part of Lee Park Plaza, small outdoor […]
After about 3 and a half years later, we finally were able to go back to Japan! It was a long time coming… And yes, we had some amazing meals in Japan! One of the best culinary experiences we’ve had was at a restaurant called NUAGE ET VENT, which means Cloud and Wind. The name […]
Since we love good Cream Puffs, this spot has been on my radar for a while… We finally got to check it out! It is a small spot, with an outdoor eating area right in front. The artwork on the outdoor eating area was colorful, really cute and comical. The inside was equipped with several […]

But then again, sometimes, you get something that looks amazing and taste great too. Ever since I first saw adorable steamed buns several years ago, I have been […]
I love visiting a botanical garden, of all sizes and collections. And in my opinion, the food offerings are better than what you get at, say, a zoo such as Bronx Zoo. I had a lovely Afternoon Tea at Wave Hill, which is kind of a secret menu. The café at NYBG is a-ok, not […]
