One of the joy of my life is to take my mother to different afternoon tea spots in NYC when she comes for a visit. It is such a fun experience, and I have taken other family members, friends, and my husband to some of my favorite spots. Since my mother can’t come for visit […]

Queens Comfort #2
This is the second review of Queens Comfort, our first visit was so exceptionally amazing, we had to go back for more. (You can read my first review here: http://www.foodlovergirl.com/queens-comfort/) This is the kind of place where you wish if you lived right next to it, but at the same time, you are glad that […]
Pie in the Sky
Here is another year-around eatery spot in Cape Cod. This one is located just a few minutes walk from the Martha’s Vineyard ferry terminal. They are more of a cafe and bakery, this means that they are open early. In their case, they are open super early (from 5 am!) which is really good if you […]
Eggloo
There is a brand new sweets shop in China Town, Eggloo. They offer “Hong Kong style egg waffles with a modern twist.” Basically, a large scoop of ice cream served on a soft waffle instead of in a waffle cone. They are having a big, Grand Opening on Feb 13th and 14th, and celebrating it with […]
Russian Tea Room
Russian Tea Room is one of the most iconic restaurant in NYC. I have always been curious about them, but didn’t really have had the chance to visit. I decided to take an advantage during the Winter Restaurant Week NYC, and try their Russian cuisine. They were founded by members of the Russian Imperial Ballet in […]
Dogpatch Bakehouse & Caffè
Finding a good food at any airport is always a challenge. Sometimes, you get lucky, but most of the time, you are not getting much of quality or tasty food. Most of us have learned to “settle” for whatever is available at the airport…(you can read my other experiences on airport food at: http://www.foodlovergirl.com/custom-burger-newark-airport/ and http://www.foodlovergirl.com/wolfgang-puck-express/). Here […]
Wine Country Chocolate
When someone mentions “Sonoma Valley,” most people will think wine tasting. Which is great, but what can be even better than wine tasting? Wine infused chocolate tasting! As we were walking through Sonoma Plaza when we spotted a lovely sign that said “Chocolate Tasting.” We got very excited and walked straight over to the store. […]
Hill Country Chicken #2
This is my second review of Hill Country Chicken (you can read my first review at: http://www.foodlovergirl.com/hill-country-chicken/). The last time I visited, I was so full that I didn’t have any room left in my tummy to try their awesome looking desserts. And since we absolutely loved their chicken and waffles, we wanted more of […]
Trattoria il Regalo
There are Italian restaurants everywhere in Japan, mainly chain restaurant that does not offer that home-cooked feel anymore. So, when a small scale Italian restaurant that you can see and taste that the dishes are home made, it really hit that warm spot in your heart (or your tummy). My friend took us to this […]
Lady M Confections Boutique
One of the most delicate desserts out there (to me) is mille crêpes. They are so rich, sweet, and elegant… You can find them at many places including restaurants and cafe, but my favorite so far is the one from Lady M. I think many others feel the same way, because it is almost always […]
