I love pop-up cafe. When the fabulous Perk Cafe from the TV series “Friends” popped up back in 2014, I made sure to visit. We waited in a long line, and we got a nice cup of coffee for free. They had all the fun memorabilia and some of the actual studio sets used in […]
When we went to a lovely little town called Morimachi, we visit an old shrine called Okuni Jinja. This shrine is popular by visitors who believe that this shrine has the power to grant people’s wishes for love, health, and good luck. The God of this shrine is known to be kind and warm, who […]

This is my second review of this Shake Shack location. (You can read about my first review here: http://www.foodlovergirl.com/shake-shack-uws/) We went back to this location for a very specific reason: to get their limited time only shakes! Will & Grace-themed shakes!!! They have two kinds of shakes in honor of the return of the show. One […]
One of the spots we really wanted to visit while visiting Tokyo was Dominique Ansel Bakery. Why? They offer items that you can only get in Japan! Yes, I have a weak spot in my heart for those things that says “limited time only” or “offered only at…” items… I remember when this spot opened […]
During our stay in Japan, we visited the home of best green teas, Shizuoka. Along the way, we discovered many wonderful food, drinks, and yes, sweets. We bought so many delicious gifts there for our family and friends, and of course, for ourselves! We visited Kakegawa Castle, and right by the castle was a little […]
We have been exploring some Korean restaurants in Fort Lee, NJ. After doing some research, this place had some enticing photos of their dishes. So, we decided to try them out. I was a bit surprised that this place called “The Tea Bar” was actually Korean food restaurant, as I always thought they were another […]
Here is a loooong overdue review of the two sweet shops at Wizarding World of Harry Potter in Universal Studios in Florida. The best gift to buy while at theme park (in my opinion) is candy and chocolate. I have families and friends who appreciate these type of gifts so much more than mug or […]
If “Foodllovergirl = sweets” and “Summer = cold, icy treats” then what do you get? Gelato! We headed over to Popbar in West Village for some of their Popgelato. They have been on my radar for a while, but haven’t really gotten around to visiting…until now! The inside is pretty small, just enough room to […]
Since I tried a Korean owned and operated Sushi restaurant in Santa Fe, I had to visit the one that is Japanese owned and operated. It didn’t have much of any signage on the outside, so it was not easy to spot this place. You have to be facing the door to see the modest […]
