Ever since my husband and I went for shopping at Mitsuwa and had lunch there the first time, it has become a regular fun activity for us to do. We go shopping for Japanese groceries there about once a month, and get some lunch. I love the variety of options and affordable prices. Here are […]
One of the best thing about Japanese cuisine is their quality of desserts. It is not always easy to get them here in the US. Paris Baguette is not Japanese pasty café, but they are similar to Japanese sweets and breads. And, they are quite affordable, and for this reason, I like to visit them […]
It is always great to find a new Japanese restaurant of any kind…I get craving for authentic Japanese food every now and then. It still is my favorite cuisine of all time. Of course, nothing can beat my mother’s home cooked meal. I heard about this restaurant a while ago, but haven’t had the chance […]
We visited this restaurant in NJ during a business lunch, and it was such a nice surprise! First of all, I love seafood, so I was excited to go to a seafood restaurant. Second, they had high reviews, so that got me even more excited, that maybe this would be a great place… As we […]
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 […]
I went for a nice business dinner a couple of months ago in New Jersey. It is in a restaurant offering contemporary American fare with Italian influences. The “Water” part of the name comes from the fact that it is located by a lake, with a beautiful view of the water. The inside was quite […]
This is my second review of the iPic theater. (You can read my first review here: http://www.foodlovergirl.com/ipic-theater-hudson-lights/). We again went there on a weekend, in a morning. I love how empty they are during the morning shows! This one was in a smaller theater, with only four rows of seats. Other than the number of […]
This restaurant is inside a historical hotel, with great ambiance and service that keeps loyal customers keep coming back to stay there and/or dine there. I have been there few times myself, all for business dinner, and I always had a pleasant time and good food. They have a nice outdoor seating space, but I […]
Going to a movie is always fun, especially to a dine-in theater. I have been a fan of Nitehawk Cinema (you can read about them here: http://www.foodlovergirl.com/nitehawk-cinema/ and http://www.foodlovergirl.com/nitehawk-cinema-2/) in Brooklyn, with interesting movies, events, and good food. I recently heard about this brand new movie theater, who is determined to provide you the “ultimate” movie […]
I knew Wolfgang’s Steakhouse was and is expanding everywhere, both domestically and internationally. But, I was still surprised when I found one in Somerville, NJ, of all places. It is not a metropolitan city, or any kind of major city, really, so it seemed a bit out of the place. Regardless, I had opportunities to […]
