When I heard about an old fashion bakery with 100 years of history, I had to many my trip up to Upper East Side. It is called the Orwasher’s, and was founded in 1916! A Hungarian immigrant family started the bakery for the immigrant community, and has been passed on from generation to generation of […]

The Palm West Side
I always thought of The Palm as “soooo New York City!” The exterior doesn’t look like much, but as soon as you walk in, you are greeted by tons of caricatures on the wall. They feature everything and anything that is Theater, as they do lots of pre and post broadway show meals. They also […]
Socarrat Paella Bar @ Chelsea
I love Spanish food, especially Tapas and Paella. And guess what, so does my hubby and my mother. While my mother was visiting us, she wanted to get some good paella. Who can blame her? There has been this Paella Bar that I have been wanting to go to, so we decided to go during […]
Grand Central Oyster Bar
I first visited Grand Central Oyster Bar with my mother almost 10 years ago. Since then, I had the pleasure of visiting them several times, including their super fun Oyster Frenzy event. The Oyster Bar first opened its doors in 1913, where it used to be an old and rundown train depot on the lower level […]
Tanner Smith’s
I like a place with history, or place that incorporates history in their own way. I found this place that provides fun Brunch called the Tipsy Tea, where you get a choice of entrée and a choice of one spiked teapot, containing two servings of cocktails. The price of this Tipsy Tea themed Brunch comes at […]
Decoy
When I found out that my husband had never had Peking Duck, I had to get him to have one. I have had really good Peking duck, and and then not-so-great Peking duck, and those were such huge difference that I knew that I had to take him to a really good place. After my […]
Café Sabarsky #2
The last time and the first timer we visited Café Sabarsky, we totally loved the experience (you can read about it here: http://www.foodlovergirl.com/cafe-sabarsky/). We knew it wouldn’t be too long before we will be returning for more. This time, we brought our family so that we can share the joy. And, they also wanted to visit […]
Le District
If you are a fan of Eataly, European food/groceries, or French food/groceries, then head over to Boorkfield Place near World Trade Center for Le District. It is basically a French version of Eataly. If you have the time, you can go visit both Eataly downtown (you can read more about it here: http://www.foodlovergirl.com/eataly-nyc-downtown/) and Le […]
Lady M Confection Boutiques @ WTC
I have been a fan of Lady M for a while. The only issue is that they are super popular, and not very large space. Therefore, it naturally creates long line and very crowded space. Luckily, I found another location, inside World Trade Center Tower 4, beneath the new Eataly. It located on the street […]
Eataly NYC Downtown
The new Eataly location opened up in the Summer of 2015. I waited for a while before I visited, since I assumed it will be crazy crowded with everyone checking it out. I finally went for a visit during the Winter, on a weekday. It was cold and a bit rainy, so the Eataly was […]
