Still catching up on all the places we visited in Portland OR from months ago… I do want to share all these great places, so bear with me. One of the breakfast places that I was excited to go was The Waffles Window. If you look at their website and their photos, you will know […]
One of the most unique spots we visited during our trip to Portland Oregon in June was Kennedy School. The historical elementary school circa 1951 has been renovated by McMenamins into a hotel. Some rooms used to be classrooms with original chalkboards! It also has a restaurant, bars, a movie theater, soaking pool, gift shop and […]
In July, we went to New Hampshire to take in all the nature. During our trip, we went to a restaurant with a spectacular view. The Switchback Grille is located high atop the mountain slopes of Bretton Woods. To get there, you get to take a scenic Gondola ride, which was really fun! I can […]
During the summertime, we had an opportunity to visit the Little Caribbean neighborhood near Prospect Park in Brooklyn. Here, we found this lovely spot called Aunts et Uncles, a plant-based, vegan friendly restaurant. They are also a cafe, bar, and even has a retail space. We heard great thing about their offerings, so we decided […]
I like finding a new coffee spot with almost a hidden area for relaxation, like The Chipped Cup. I heard Five Flies Coffee is one of those spots, and have been wanting to check this place out for a while, and the first visit several months ago, we have been going back a few times. […]
We were looking at a brunch spot somewhere in DUMBO and Brooklyn Heights. And I found a perfect place called Vineapple, on Pineapple Street. I know, what a cool name, right? They have a nice outdoor seating (for now), and a cute pineapple neon light at the window. Once you walk inside, there is a […]
I know I still have a lot of catch up to do from my Japan trip…but, let me get back to NYC for a bit. If you had chance to read many of my blogs, then you know I love speakeasy spots, and hidden/neighborhood gems. Well, let me introduce you to this hidden gem cafe […]
While we were in Japan during the winter, we spend a day in Asakusa. After having a small-ish breakfast at Misojyu and walked around the vibrant streets of Asakusa, we were ready for some brunch-type food. We went during an off-season and off peak-time, so there was no line. Depending on the time and season, […]
There are so many great rooftop spots in NYC, I have been to a few, such as Sushi Lab Rooftop and Hotel Chantelle, and had a really nice time! This time, I found this spot called Elsie Rooftop for a Bottomless Brunch. I usually stay away from bottomless places, since they tend to water down […]
This spot has changed its name once or twice, and now it is called Inwood Farm. To be honest, we didn’t have the best experience in the past, under the different name/management, so we were a bit skeptical about the newly named restaurant. Still, we wanted to check it out since our friend had a […]
