When you are visiting Springfield at Universal Studio, you must listen to Homer Simpson, who says “You don’t win friends with salad.” Unless your friend is a vegetarian or vegan, I kind of agree with him. Inside the Springfield, they have rides, games, funny statues, stores, and yes, eateries. They have a quick-service or […]
Lilly’s Craft and Kitchen
We were looking for a brunch spot near Javits Convention Center. We actually walked over to another place that was just a few blocks away, opened much earlier in the morning. But, when we got there, there was a crowed of people waiting for their seat outside the door, so we decided to go somewhere […]
Lakeside Bar & Grille
It is always interesting to find a restaurant that is popular among the locals. That should mean good food at good price, or at least I think that is the secret recipe for local’s choice. We found one here called Lakeside Bar & Grille. It is a local sports bar, and while we were there, […]

LB’s Bistro & Pâtisserie
Most big hotels have more than one restaurants to offer a few dining options to their patrons. When I stayed at Sheraton Grand Chicago, I was glad to find more than one restaurants in the hotel. I dined at Shula’s Steak House (you can read about it here: http://www.foodlovergirl.com/shulas-steak-house/) for dinner at the hotel, and then […]
Mitsuwa Marketplace
One thing I like to live close to, other than great restaurants, is a nice Asian supermarket. If that supermarket holds awesome Asian food court, even better. Here at Mitsuwa, it is a perfect match. They have lots and lots of Asian groceries, with emphasis on Japanese food, and yes, food court, also with emphasis […]
Shula’s Steak House
When you are traveling, and have a really tight schedule, you don’t always have time to look for a new, exciting places to eat. Even if you have the time to look up a few places, you might not have the time to actually go to one. In this case, what you wish for is […]
b. good
I have had a pretty good burger and fries from this place in the past, we went back for more. They are a health-conscious versions of fast-food chain restaurant. I like burgers and fries, but I know they are not so healthy… So, I appreciate anyone who is trying to come up with a healthy […]

Chef Art Smith’s Homecomin’
It is time to talk about my favorite restaurant in Disney Springs. When we were in Orlando, we visited several restaurant nearby Disney World and Universal Studio. This one I think was our favorite of them all. Homecomin’ offers Southern, farm-to-table cuisine, while highlighting local ingredients. They have handcrafted moonshine cocktail (which we didn’t get to […]
