This is my third visit to this dessert heaven. (You can read about my previous visits here: http://www.foodlovergirl.com/eclair-bakery/ and http://www.foodlovergirl.com/eclair-bakery-2/) They still have all the yummy looking freshly baked goods and desserts… I hope this place never closes down! And of course the eclairs… I am so glad we don’t live near here, as we would be […]
So, we are back to our favorite themed cafe, once again! (You can read my previous visits here: http://www.foodlovergirl.com/rue-la-rue-cafe/ and http://www.foodlovergirl.com/rue-la-rue-cafe-2/ ) Actually, this is for the last two visits combined. Since they have expanded their hours and menu, we wanted to try a few items that we haven’t tried yet. Another new thing is that they […]
While my stay in Santa Fe, my favorite spot for breakfast and lunch was this cute boutique bakery and cafe called Sweet Lily Bakery. It was right next to the hotel, so it was really easy to get to, and I love that they have made-from-scratch items that changes on daily bases. They offer good variety […]
It is interesting how color affects our taste buds, and also our appetite. With so many food made for photos nowadays, it gets our curiosities high, and expectation of a good time also high. I have been wanting to try out Dylan’s Candy Bar since I have seen some yummy looking photos. We finally made […]
Since I visited Harney & Sons two years ago with my sister (you can read about it here: http://www.foodlovergirl.com/harney-sons/), I have become a big fan of this place and their tea. It is a good place to get some tasty teas for us, and also gifts for others. They had the window decorated with fun […]
One of the best thing about Japanese cuisine is their quality of desserts. It is not always easy to get them here in the US. Paris Baguette is not Japanese pasty café, but they are similar to Japanese sweets and breads. And, they are quite affordable, and for this reason, I like to visit them […]
This is another awesome Tasting Collective dining club event we attended. (You can read about the previous posts about Tasting Collective events here: Fish Cheeks, Win Son, F.O.B., Xixa, Huertas, Bessou, Maharlika, and Traif). Tasting Collective is a dining club for food lovers, and they offer brunch and dinner at great NYC restaurants. They close […]
When we are traveling to a place you haven’t been before, trying out restaurants in the area is one of the most fun thing for us to do. Out of all the places we found, this place took first place by wooing our hearts (and stomach). We liked it so much that we dined here […]
Nowadays, there are many restaurant and shops that focuses on making “photogenic” food or desserts. I wonder sometimes if the flavor suffers, by putting too much focus on how they look… Anyways, I saw this dessert place that had very pretty dessert, and I finally made it. This is a gelato spot, not ice cream. […]
IchiUmi is a “Japanese Sushi and Seafood Buffet” located in Korean Town, right above Ichi Cellar (you can read about it here: http://www.foodlovergirl.com/ichi-cellar/ ). I have been to IchiUmi once, several years ago, and I was not impressed. But, my hubby got curious when he heard what they claimed to be, an all-you-can-eat sushi and seafood. The […]
