When I think of Chinatown in New York and the food that they offer, the word that come to my head is “affordable.” This is not just the restaurant or grocery stores, but also includes bakeries. We ventured out to a local bakery in Chinatown called Lung Moon Bakery in a midst of (heavy) snow, […]

Catch NYC
Before the Restaurant Week ended, we went to another seafood restaurant for Sunday Brunch. It was on 9th Avenue, but we didn’t really see any sign for Catch, but as we checked more closely, we found a sign that said to use the entrance on the 13th street. Then we finally saw their sign on […]
STK Midtown
Ever since I visited STK Orlando (you can read about it here: http://www.foodlovergirl.com/stk-orlando/), I have been a fan of their food. And, my husband has been jealous of all the great dishes that I had. So, when we saw that they are a participating in the Restaurant Week, we made a reservation right away. They […]
Inakaya – CLOSED
I have been wanting to go to Inakaya ever since they opened up in Manhattan in 2009. But, I heard that are kind of pricey, so I have not had made my way there… then, the Restaurant Week came and saved the day. It is always good to try these expensive restaurant during restaurant week. […]
Rue La Rue Café – CLOSED
I have been patiently waiting for this café to open up since last Fall. Today, I finally got to visit them during their Soft Opening period. I am still not sure when the hard opening would be, but for as long as I got to go in, who cares when the hard opening is, right? […]
Orwasher’s Bakery
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 […]
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 […]
Gingerbread House Kit @ Costco
Yes the Christmas season is over. But, maybe this could be helpful for the next Holiday season! In 2015, we bought a gingerbread house kit from IKEA. It was around $10, and the box came with pre-cut gingerbread that you had to put together. I have never tried to build a gingerbread house before, so […]
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 […]
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 […]
