While visiting Seattle, we decided to go have a fun day trip to Bainbridge Island. We do enjoy a nice ferry ride anywhere! Even though the distance from the Seattle port to Bainbridge is not that far, it took more than 30 minutes. The ferry moved pretty slow…well, it was nice and steady because of […]
Shaker + Spear
When you are traveling to a city filled with tourists, it is better to go to a restaurant that is a bit away from the center of it all, say, like Pike Place Market. We wanted some kind of seafood for lunch, and we found this upscale restaurant, connected to a Kimpton Palladian Hotel. The […]
The French Bakery
I love breakfast and brunch, so while I am traveling, I always look for a nice breakfast/brunch spot. When I was staying in Bellevue WA, I found this nice bakery that serves breakfast every day. It was inside a large glass building, very modern looking. Inside was bright with loads of natural light, with a […]
Dos Toros
I went to a fun and tasty event at one of Dos Toros location in NYC, at 40th and Madison. This location is still relatively new, modern look with clean lines and spacious room. The super high ceiling adds to the spacious feeling, as well as light earth-tone and mirrors, creating more open feel to […]
Rachel’s Ginger Beer
We found the best spot for my hubby, a ginger beer lover. It is a spot where they offer handcrafted ginger beer in a range of flavors on tap, including floats and cocktails made with them. The inside was like a little green oasis with lots of earth colors, woods, and plants. Beautiful and relaxing atmosphere. […]
Biscuit Bitch Belltown
Nowadays, “farm-to-table” is all the rage. But here at Biscuit Bitch, they are all about “Trailer Park to Table: Southern Inspired Fixin’s and Kickass Espresso.” Intrigued? They have three locations in Seattle, and we visited one at Belltown. It was a holiday, thinking that they won’t have much of a line… But I was so […]
Mavi’s Coffee and Patisserie #2
We visited Mavi’s not too long ago, and it was a-ok. But, we decided to give it another try! We got Earl Grey Fog Latte ($5), iced. It had a nice Ear Grey flavor, not overly sweet but elegantly sweet. Refreshing on a hot, muggy day. For food, my hubby ordered Truffle Mushroom Cream Pasta […]
Food on Plane: JAL 2019
It was time to travel to Japan again! Woohoo! We took our usual JAL flight, in Premium Economy. We were interested on what kind of food on plane we were going to get this time, compared to 2017 and 2015. They are always doing their best to improve the quality and flavor, and also, coming […]
Kamameshi Hana (87)
One of the new tasty discovery during this trip to Japan was a cute little local mom & pop restaurant in a residential neighborhood. It was not hard to find, with all sorts of signs in front of them. They have a couple of parking spot right up front, but they also have an actual […]
Tsujihan
While staying in Tokyo, I found a small restaurant with much popularity called Tsujihan. I was curious to find out the reason why they are so popular, especially since they offer extremely limited menu. We decided to check it out for lunch. We arrived about five minutes before they opened, on Tuesday, and they already […]
