Since their soft opening few weeks ago, we have been going to this lovely café almost every weekend. (You can read about my first visit here: http://www.foodlovergirl.com/rue-la-rue-cafe/). Instead of having so many updates, I decided to combine the last several visits into one. It has constantly being really busy, with its fun theme, good food […]
When I think of Chinatown in New York and the food that they offer, the word that come to my head is “affordable.” This is not just the restaurant or grocery stores, but also includes bakeries. We ventured out to a local bakery in Chinatown called Lung Moon Bakery in a midst of (heavy) snow, […]
One thing you might want to check out when you are staying at a hotel is there breakfast offering and quality. Not everyone has a really good breakfast that suits most everyone staying there. During the Thanksgiving holidays, I got to have a full continental breakfast at Hilton Midtown. They have Herb N’ Kitchen located […]
Another great Harry Potter-themed restaurant we visited during our vacation in Orlando was the Leaky Cauldron. If you are a fan of Harry Potter, then you know it is a popular pub and inn among wizards, located somewhere in London. It is also the entrance to Diagon Alley and Knockturn Alley. And guess what? This […]
I love finding a local hidden gem, so hidden that some of the other locals might not know about! This popular spot is hiding behind a Dairy Queen, and has that very cozy, friendly, home-y feel to it. A great spot for breakfast and brunch, especially if you like those home cooked or diner-like food […]
My weakness is desserts, and if it is Japanese or French, then that is it, I am done! I once heard a chef on a TV said that the best dessert he has ever had was a French dessert done Japanese way in Japan. I can totally understand that… However, while in America, I can […]
I have been wanting to go to Lafayette for some exquisite, upscale French-inspired desserts for a long time. We finally got to make our way over to this sweet heaven. It had a really large outdoor seating, more than most other restaurant, and they had big blue sunbrellas to keep customers cool. The inside was […]
Just as we promised, we went back to this marvelous diner, the king of all the diners (to us, at least), Lou Roc! Our last (and our first) visit was so incredibly amazing (you can read about it here: http://www.foodlovergirl.com/lou-rocs-diner/), we just had to go back for more! You can also read about the background […]
There is always something new popping up in NYC. A recent newcomer, also called one of the “weirdest” opening of this Summer (2016) is the Kellogg’s NYC. I always loved cereal, especially Kellogg’s cereals. So, we decided to check them out. It sits in the heart of Times Square, great location for getting lots of […]
When you are traveling or going to a place where you haven’t been to before, it might be challenging to find a really good place to eat. We decided to drive to Long Island, and explore the area. The first task was a brunch spot. With my luck, I found one that looked and sounded […]
