We visited this relaxing yet elegant gastropub in Brooklyn for a brunch. It looked quite large from outside, sitting on a corner not. They had a nice big outdoor seating too, that goes around the pub. The inside was really nice, had the feeling of antique with the old photos on the walls and books […]

Dough Doughnuts
Throughout NYC, mainly at coffee shops, I have seen delectable doughnuts from Dough. I always enjoyed their doughnuts, large, fluffy and tasty. I finally got to visit one of their locations, instead of coffee shops that sell their doughnuts! The one on 19th Street was a good size, especially for a doughnut shop. It was […]
Daily Provisions
I have been wanting to get some tasty looking doughnuts from there, but we always get there too late… Seems like their doughnuts are a bit too popular. So, we decided to go there for some real food, and not doughnuts. The inside is quite small, as this is not a restaurant, but more like […]
Wingtips Lounge @JFK – CLOSED
When you are traveling by air, it is always good to have access to an airport lounge to relax before or after the flight. And, in most cases, you do get free food and drinks. While traveling to Seattle, we used the Wingtips Lounge at JFK. It is open 24 hours which is great, but […]
Woops! @ Winter Village at Bryant Park
Every year during the Holiday season, we go visit several of the holiday markets around Manhattan to look for gifts for family and friends. And yes, for ourselves too… I think the holiday market at Bryant Park, Bank of America Winter Village, is one of the largest, and one of the most visually stunning one […]

Tasting Collective is a dining club for food lovers, and they offer brunch and dinner […]
La Maison du Croque Monsieur
One of my favorite dish is Croque Madame. I’ve had my share of Croque Madame, some good, some not-so-good, and some amazing. With that, this spot naturally caught my eyes. The space right at the entry is rather small, with a large staircase taking up much of the space. There is an ordering counter to […]
Squish Marshmallows
On one chilly evening, we were walking around East Village, and walked passed this curious spot. It seems that they were specializing in marshmallows? Hmmm, we do love good marshmallows… Especially if it is topped on a good hot chocolate. And guess what? They were offering hot chocolate! So we decided to get some hot […]
BC Oyster Tasting Event 2018
I was so blessed to be invited to an awesome BC Oyster Tasting Event by BC Seafood Festival. Their festival started as one-day event, and now it has grown to be the largest seafood festival in Western Canada. This was their “oyster tasting” event in NYC, before the big 13th annual festival in June 2019 in […]
Izakaya Mew #2
We went to Izakaya Mew during the Summer, and we loved most of everything that we had there. So, when we were going out with friends, and looking for an izakaya to go to, we knew which one to go to! Our friends have never been there, so it was going to be a fun […]
