A high quality seafood at real Japanese restaurant, and I mean, REAL Japanese restaurant can be pricey. The best time to go have some tasty meal is during lunch time. This spot came under my radar, with their delectable lunch specials. But, it is not always to have lunch during the weekdays when you work […]

Yaso Tangbao
We went for a tasty event at this spot, which just opened earlier this year. We enjoy some good dim sum every once in a while, especially dumplings. This event included demonstration on how the soup dumplings were made. How fun! Their sign says “Shanghai Street Foods” but since I have never been to Shanghai, […]
The Ribbon
We went to this spot for a tasty event. This restaurant was not under my radar, so it was good to discover a new spot. It had a simple, modern exterior, nothing too fancy but elegantly done. The first area at the entrance is more lounge-type dining set up, with a bar next to it. […]
Maison Kayser
A fun thing about any kind of holiday, big or small, is that they get their own special treats. During March, we went to get some fun green treat for St. Patrick’s Day. We found an enticing and tasty sign in front of Maison Kayser one evening, we decided to try it out. The […]

Dessert Goals 2018
As a dessert lover, I have always been curious about this dessert festival, Dessert Goals. I didn’t get to purchase the ticket last year before all the ticket got sold out within minutes…so, this year, I was ready and I got the tickets! Also, they doubled up on their tickets, which helped as well. I […]
Vicky’s Diner – CLOSED
I first found this little diner three years ago. I was having lunch on my own at the counter, and the owner, Vicky was there with a friendly smile on a warm, quiet, peaceful day. It was a very memorable visit, because the peacefulness came to an abrupt end when I realized that they are […]
Shinsuke in NEW YORK @Kajitsu
There is something exciting about a pop-up restaurant that is only going to be available for a short time. We found a Japanese pop-up restaurant from Tokyo called Shinsuke, taking over Kajitsu restaurant for a short time. After learning a bit about Shinsuke, we got very curious and decided to go. We made it on […]
Tanner Smith’s #2
This is our second visit to Tanner Smith’s, and we went to very early brunch. Well, what we didn’t realize is that they do “breakfast” and not brunch from 8am – 11am. However, it seems like they were changing out the menu from breakfast menu to brunch menu at 10:30am, around the time we were […]
The Wayfarer
I was tasked to find a table for three for Friday night in Midtown at the last minute. I was looking for a restaurant in specific area within Midtown, that offers variety of food selection without crazy price tag. And of course, the food had to be good. Yes, this task was not easy, not […]
