On the way home to my parents’ home from Harajuku are, we tried to look for something tasty that we can bring back with us for dinner. We looked at some places, but then, the choice of food didn’t feel like they will travel well on the train ride… But then, I remember seeing this […]
Hedgehog Cafe HARRY
Here is a little different post, not food related one, but certainly interesting topic. One place my husband was VERY curious about was one of those animal/pet cafes. There are Cat Cafe and Puppy Cafe elsewhere nowadays outside of Japan, but they still have unique animal/pet cafe only in Japan. One of them is Hedgehog […]
Tokyo Tarako Spaghetti
After having an awesome breakfast at Junkissa PanEsu, we looked for a lunch spot that is as awesome. We walked by Tokyo Tarako spaghetti a day before, and it was packed with people waiting outside. We went over around 11am, and it was still quiet. The entrance is on the second floor, so we walked […]
Junkissa PanEsu
After a day full of delicious eats with my gourmet sister, I casually mentioned to her that we haven’t decided where to go for breakfast the next morning. She sent me her recommendation, and of course we trusted her 100%. So, when we got up, we went looking for this spot called Junkissa PanEsu. We […]
Red Feather – CLOSED
We were looking for a brunch spot, and we were feeling some kind of Asian food. We found Red Feather near Washington Square Park. There are several steps up to the restaurant entrance, not accessible from what I could see. The inside was a bit smaller that I thought it would be. The exterior and […]
Tofu Shokudo
On the day we spent with my gourmet sister in Tokyo, she took us to a really interesting place called Tofu Shokudo. We like tofu, as it is tasty, healthy, and has lots of benefits as well. Rich in high quality protein, vitamins, and dietary fiber. Tofu Shokudo is unique in a sense that they […]
Hayashiya Chaen
While we were in Japan at the beginning of 2023, my sister took us to Hayashiya Chaen in Meguro, Tokyo. They focus on Japanese tea, and also serves desserts made with their special teas. From reading about them, they want to serve the “real” tea to their customers, without dressing it up, just simple, pure, […]
Bazár Tapas Bar & Restaurant
On one Sunday, we were walking around, looking for a brunch spot. Then, we walked by this place called Bazár Tapas Bar & Restaurant. We must’ve walked by this spot so many times, but for some reason, we never really paid that much attention… We love tapas, so we decided to check it out. It […]
Cacao Bar by MarieBelle
One of the most fun dining experiences out there, in my opinion, is afternoon tea. My mother loves afternoon tea, and so do my husband and I. When my mother and my niece came for a visit in late summer/early fall of 2022, I made sure to take them to a few afternoon tea spots. […]
BLACKBARN Restaurant
I have been interested in BLACKBARN for while, and when we walk by during peak hours, it was always looked full and busy. A good sign of good food. So, when my family was here during the late summer of 2022, I decided to take them there for lunch. We had successful lunch/brunch at spots […]
