We love finding an old-school diner, especially the one still in an original dining car. We found another one in Rhode Island! This dining car–style restaurant serves American breakfast and lunch. The name Jigger’s come from the original owner, who’s nickname was Jigger. The inside is small, as expected for a dining car. Narrow and […]
Daily Provisions
I have been wanting to get some tasty looking doughnuts from there, but we always get there too late… Seems like their doughnuts are a bit too popular. So, we decided to go there for some real food, and not doughnuts. The inside is quite small, as this is not a restaurant, but more like […]
Wingtips Lounge @JFK – CLOSED
When you are traveling by air, it is always good to have access to an airport lounge to relax before or after the flight. And, in most cases, you do get free food and drinks. While traveling to Seattle, we used the Wingtips Lounge at JFK. It is open 24 hours which is great, but […]
Flour Bakery + Cafe
While staying in Boston for business, I found this bakery right by the hotel. It was convenient, and seemed to be popular, so I decided to try them out one late morning. It was a good size for a bakery, good amount of seating, although it was not always easy to get a seat there […]
Woops! @ Winter Village at Bryant Park
Every year during the Holiday season, we go visit several of the holiday markets around Manhattan to look for gifts for family and friends. And yes, for ourselves too… I think the holiday market at Bryant Park, Bank of America Winter Village, is one of the largest, and one of the most visually stunning one […]
Da Vinci Ristorante
While in Boston, we had dinner at this Italian Restaurant. We made reservation for early dinner, so when we arrived, it was very quiet. As soon as we walked in, we were greeted with a warm welcoming smile. They have a complimentary coat check at the entrance, which is helpful especially around the cold months. […]
Dumpling Palace
On a chilly day in Boston, we wanted some kind of Asian comfort food. Since it was around the holidays, many places were either closed, or special hours… So, it was not easy to find a place that was open for business. Luckily for us, this spot was open! It is a Chinese restaurant offering […]
Xixa #2
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, FOB, Xixa, Huertas, Bessou, Maharlika, Traif, Lalito, Noreetuh, Traif #2, Txikito, Oka ). Tasting Collective is a dining club for food lovers, and they offer brunch and dinner […]
Boston Burger Company
One of my favorite American comfort food is Burger & Fries. And nowadays, the “burger” has become so much more than just patty and buns. While in Boston, I found a spot that specializes in all sorts of creative burgers. We went during the off-peak hours, but they still had a short wait. They had […]
Mike & Patty’s #2
I have visited Mike and Patty’s this past Summer (you can read about it here: https://www.foodlovergirl.com/mike-pattys/), and I fell in love with their sandwich. Now that I was back in Boston, I went back for more! This time, I finally got to taste their Impossible Burger! They have Mushroom Swiss Impossible Burger ($13). It is […]
