I heard that a new Japanese bowl spot was opening up in East Village, so I was excited to go try them out. I didn’t do much research on this establishment beforehand, and I somehow was under the impression that they are a “Japanese eatery” serving Japanese food. I then discovered they serve bowls with […]
BÀO Tea House
I enjoy going to dim sum places, and always order some sort of steamed dumplings or Bao. You just can’t leave without having one or both of them! I’ve had some tasty ones from Nan Xiang Xiao Long Bao, Yaso Tangbao, Jing Fong Restaurant, and Golden Unicorn. The bao offered at the BÀO Tea House is […]
Pickle Jar Kitchen #3
We have been a fan of Pickle Jar Kitchen since we first visited in 2015. Even though we like to explore new spots, we have gone back a few times, the last time was in 2019, before the Pandemic. Now that we are trying to get to the normal life even just a little bit, […]
Kudo Society Cafe – Teaneck
Ever since we first visited Kudo Society Cafe in Palisades Park, NJ, we became instant fans of their food! When we heard that they opened another location in Teaneck, NJ, we decided to see how they are like. At our first visit in early May, we were greeted by one of those fun inflatable air […]
Manhattanville Market
Now that we are heading our way towards somewhat the “normal” life (even though we still have a long way to go), we are starting to explore more places! As I mentioned in The North End Food Hall post, we have some pretty nice food halls everywhere. And, it seems like we are getting more […]
Just Salad
Since the City is trying to go back to somewhat “normal” life, I know many of us are thinking of losing the horrid pandemic weight… No more “lounge wear” and back to fabulous clothes, or REAL work clothes. And they might be a bit tight for some reason…they must have shrunk during the pandemic! Healthy […]
The North End Food Hall #2
If you read my previous blog about The North End Food Hall, you know it is in the “soft opening” phase right now. But, I am here to tell you, now you can get some tasty food! Only one vendor, Harlem Public is fully operational right now, but I hope other vendors will be joining […]
The North End Food Hall
At the height of the “food hall” craze, which actually lasted several years before the pandemic, we gained many food halls across NYC. We have Turnstyle Underground Market, The Pennsy, Essex Street Market, and so many more. The latest news before everything shut down was The North End Food Hall, all the way up in […]
A-Crepe
For many people, “Chinatown” in New York means the one in downtown Manhattan. But, if you ask the people who knows about the “REAL” Chinatown, they will tell you it is in Flushing, Queens. We were just starting to explore more eateries and restaurants before the Pandemic hit. You can find some great dim sum […]
Krispy Kreme Times Square Flagship
For the last few years, I have been hearing and seeing more “flagship” stores coming to NYC. Which is a bit surprising, as flagship usually requires large space, and NYC is very tight when it comes to real estate…but there is always opportunities for business who wants to have their flagship store in the heart […]
