Finding a good food at any airport is always a challenge. Sometimes, you get lucky, but most of the time, you are not getting much of quality or tasty food.

Pronto is one of a chain eatery in Japan with an interesting concept (to me). They are cafe, restaurant, and bar (Izakaya). It seems like they change their face depends on the time of the day/night, according to what people would want. What a creative and awesome concept it that? If you go there during […]
Lots of people, both local and travelers say one of the best place to eat in San Francisco, especially or brunch, is Brenda’s French Soul Food. So, of course, we had to check it out.

Yes, there is a cafe at the Fairway in Upper West Side. It is on second floor, and pretty roomy but crowded. It has lots of big windows, so it was nice and bright, with mostly red brick walls which gives that nice cozy feeling. Each table had a cute flower arrangement with fresh flowers, […]
One of the hot spot in Astoria. Sweet Afton is a lively and friendly Irish pub with a hip vibe, beautiful exposed brick and beam interior, and most of all, “locally sourced” amazing food. Some local Astorians say this place has the best burger in the Astoria, so I had to go check it out. […]
