Ok, it is official, I am in LOVE! Well, maybe a close second to my sweet husband. But seriously, this brand-new spot, Maroni Hot Pots have won my heart with their amazing meatballs. I had whispers about their meatballs, and it got my curiosity all going, so I decided to go check it out. Once […]

Queens Comfort #2
This is the second review of Queens Comfort, our first visit was so exceptionally amazing, we had to go back for more. (You can read my first review here: http://www.foodlovergirl.com/queens-comfort/) This is the kind of place where you wish if you lived right next to it, but at the same time, you are glad that […]
Havana Central
As most New Yorkers, I am NOT fans of Times Square, so when I was invited to go to an event at Havana Central in Times Square, I was a bit concerned. The restaurants in Times Square don’t really have good reputation, as they are mainly for tourists (expensive food and not very quality food), […]
Eggloo
There is a brand new sweets shop in China Town, Eggloo. They offer “Hong Kong style egg waffles with a modern twist.” Basically, a large scoop of ice cream served on a soft waffle instead of in a waffle cone. They are having a big, Grand Opening on Feb 13th and 14th, and celebrating it with […]
Russian Tea Room
Russian Tea Room is one of the most iconic restaurant in NYC. I have always been curious about them, but didn’t really have had the chance to visit. I decided to take an advantage during the Winter Restaurant Week NYC, and try their Russian cuisine. They were founded by members of the Russian Imperial Ballet in […]
Óxido
I discovered this restaurant through an event, and boy, it was a great and tasty event! If you are (or were) a fan of Chipotle at any point of your life, this might interest you, as they have very similar concept. After being there once, I fell in love with the place (and the food, of […]
Papaya King
One of the most famous quick & cheap eats of NYC is Papaya King. I know there are other “Papaya” guys out there, like Gray’s Papaya Dog (founded by a former partner of Papaya King), and Papaya Dog, but I believe Papaya King is the oldest, and original. The history of this establishment is quite […]
Hill Country Chicken #2
This is my second review of Hill Country Chicken (you can read my first review at: http://www.foodlovergirl.com/hill-country-chicken/). The last time I visited, I was so full that I didn’t have any room left in my tummy to try their awesome looking desserts. And since we absolutely loved their chicken and waffles, we wanted more of […]
Lady M Confections Boutique
One of the most delicate desserts out there (to me) is mille crêpes. They are so rich, sweet, and elegant… You can find them at many places including restaurants and cafe, but my favorite so far is the one from Lady M. I think many others feel the same way, because it is almost always […]
Cafe Zaiya
One thing I love about Japanese cuisine is their sweets. They really do great job with pastries and all sorts of desserts. It is somehow more delicate, light, and never overly sweet. No matter which one you chose, you can almost be certain that you will get a great flavor. A quick background about Cafe […]
