This was my second visit to The Dickens Tavern, again with my colleagues for business dinner (you can read about my first post here: http://www.foodlovergirl.com/the-dickens-tavern/).

Dominique Ansel Kitchen
Anyone who loves sweets have heard of Dominique Ansel Bakery, when they became super popular when their Cronut hit their shelves. Now, the bakery has a twin sister, Dominique Ansel Kitchen. They call this one more of a “tomboy” version. So, whats the difference between the two? Here at the “Kitchen,” they combined bakery with a […]

Three Broomsticks
One of the super fun things to do at a theme park – other to go on rides, take photos with characters, and live in a fantasy land for a while – is to have a lunch or dinner at where your favorite characters have been in movies! I visited Universal Studios in Florida, and […]
Nisi Estiatorio
I got to visit this Greek/Mediterranean restaurant for a fun event. This restaurant just opened up a month ago, this spot used to be a steakhouse called Village Prime. Now, it is a new delightful addition to the village that people are welcoming with open arms. The first think you see when you walk in […]

Oita Sushi – CLOSED
Every once in a while, I get craving for sushi. And with hundreds of sushi restaurant or Asian restaurant with sushi offering, it is easy to get one. But, to get a sushi that is fresh and affordable, it requires some research. Nowadays, there are many of them that are owned and/or operated by non-Japanese, […]
