I somehow completely forgot about this Dim Sum spot somehow, but hey, better late than never! So, we visited Moon Kee in January, on a cold day. It was still early, before the lunch rush, so it was not busy when we arrived. It got lively about the time we left though. The inside was […]
There are so many photo-worthy food out there, and I get enticed by them frequently… Some of them only looks good, and the quality/flavor could be sacrificed. But then again, sometimes, you get something that looks amazing and taste great too. Ever since I first saw adorable steamed buns several years ago, I have been […]
One weekend during summer, we were spending time around Financial District, and we wanted something quick, easy, and tasty. After a bit of research, I found this Chinese restaurant that offers kind of Dim Sum type dishes called 3 Times. I heard their dishes are more authentic and tasty, so we decided to go and […]
We love visiting the New York Botanical Garden during the holiday season, especially for their amazing Holiday Train Show. We’ve been there a couple of times in the past, before the pandemic, and we finally got to go back again this year at the beginning of December. If you are a fan of trains, architecture, […]
When we ventured out to Flushing, Queens for tasty crepes at A-Crepe, we also had a nice early dinner before we headed back to Manhattan. There was one Dim Sum spot that was on my list for a while in the neighborhood, so we decided to go check it out. It is called Kung Fu […]
We do enjoy good dim sum every now and then. There are so many dim sum options in Chinatown, like Jing Fong and Golden Unicorn. However, some say that you must travel a bit further away, to Flushing, to get even better options, including better pricing, more dish offerings, and more authentic dishes. When we […]

We enjoy some soup dumplings every now and then. My friend told me about this spot a while ago. While we were in the area one weekend, we decided to try their soup dumplings. It is located inside a shopping center, doesn’t really have a huge sign outside, and mainly Korean stores in the shopping […]
I came across this restaurant without looking for it. Sometimes, you find something really good only when you are not looking for it…and lots of times, it turns out to be the best thing ever. I was hoping for this kind of outcome when we decided to go check it out. It is located at […]
When I think of Chinatown in New York and the food that they offer, the word that come to my head is “affordable.” This is not just the restaurant or grocery stores, but also includes bakeries. We ventured out to a local bakery in Chinatown called Lung Moon Bakery in a midst of (heavy) snow, […]
