No matter how many different cuisines from all different countries in the world, my true love for the food would still remains to be Japanese food. You gotta love the food you grew up with, the kind of food with warm memories of your mom and grand-mom cooking for you. And when I miss that […]

BCD Tofu House
Right across the George Washington Bridge over to Fort Lee, NJ is where you can get good Korean food at affordable prices. And, from what I hear, most of them are much more authentic than some other spots. I remembered having a really good authentic Korean soft-tofu soup long ago down South, I wanted to […]
Soup Dumpling Plus
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 […]
12 Islands Greek Taverna
My coworker friend told me about this Greek restaurant, and they came with high reviews. The great thing about a restaurant in NJ is that they can get pretty big size land, with a big parking lot. This restaurant was kind of screaming out Greek with the blue and white, and their flag alongside American […]
Mitsuwa Marketplace #3
Going to shopping for Japanese groceries at Mitsuwa and get some Japanese food while we are there has become one of our fun weekend activity. We don’t do that every weekend, but when we do, the first thing we talk about is “from which place are we going to get food from this time?” We […]
Shinpo Korean Eatery #2 – CLOSED
This is our second visit to this eatery (you can read about it here: http://www.foodlovergirl.com/shinpo-korean-eatery/). This time, we made sure to come after 11am, so that we can order from the regular menu, and not restricted to their small morning menu. The regular menu is also limited, but pretty enticing to us. Out of all, […]
City Perch Kitchen + Bar
One of my favorite theaters is iPic Theater (you can read about it here: http://www.foodlovergirl.com/ipic-theater-hudson-lights/ and here: http://www.foodlovergirl.com/ipic-theater-hudson-lights-2/ ). There is a huge restaurant connected to the theater, who also serves food in the theater. Even though we ordered food off the in-theater dining menu, we never actually dined in the restaurant. So, we decided to have an […]
Shinpo Korean Eatery – CLOSED
We found this newly opened Korean eatery in Fort Lee. It seemed like they are fast-served, affordable, simple menu spot. It was clean and spacious, and when we walked in, a staff welcomed us from behind the counter and helped us order. They had drinks in an ice container right in front the ordering counter. […]
Sa Rit Gol
We visited another Korean restaurant in Fort Lee. This time, it is a real deal Korean from their name, interior and customer base. I heard they are pretty authentic but their menu had both Korean and English, I thought we would be able to navigate the menu without issue. The inside was simple and no-frill, […]
The Tea Bar – CLOSED
We have been exploring some Korean restaurants in Fort Lee, NJ. After doing some research, this place had some enticing photos of their dishes. So, we decided to try them out. I was a bit surprised that this place called “The Tea Bar” was actually Korean food restaurant, as I always thought they were another […]
