This is my third visit to this dessert heaven. (You can read about my previous visits here: http://www.foodlovergirl.com/eclair-bakery/ and http://www.foodlovergirl.com/eclair-bakery-2/) They still have all the yummy looking freshly baked goods and desserts… I hope this place never closes down! And of course the eclairs… I am so glad we don’t live near here, as we would be […]
So, we are back to our favorite themed cafe, once again! (You can read my previous visits here: http://www.foodlovergirl.com/rue-la-rue-cafe/ and http://www.foodlovergirl.com/rue-la-rue-cafe-2/ ) Actually, this is for the last two visits combined. Since they have expanded their hours and menu, we wanted to try a few items that we haven’t tried yet. Another new thing is that they […]
Another trip out of JFK, and another hunt for, well, decent food. With all the money they spend on airports, why can’t they have more decent eateries at airports??? Unfortunately, If you don’t have access to one of those fancy lounges, we are stuck with not-so-great food. One thing they have is the convenience of […]
Since I visited Harney & Sons two years ago with my sister (you can read about it here: http://www.foodlovergirl.com/harney-sons/), I have become a big fan of this place and their tea. It is a good place to get some tasty teas for us, and also gifts for others. They had the window decorated with fun […]
In New York City, there will be a few new food trend or craze that comes up to steal the spotlight from the ones from previous year. Poké is one of them that is getting lots of attention, and new Poké eateries opening up every day. I didn’t know much about Poké, but from the first time I saw […]
Nowadays, there are many restaurant and shops that focuses on making “photogenic” food or desserts. I wonder sometimes if the flavor suffers, by putting too much focus on how they look… Anyways, I saw this dessert place that had very pretty dessert, and I finally made it. This is a gelato spot, not ice cream. […]
IchiUmi is a “Japanese Sushi and Seafood Buffet” located in Korean Town, right above Ichi Cellar (you can read about it here: http://www.foodlovergirl.com/ichi-cellar/ ). I have been to IchiUmi once, several years ago, and I was not impressed. But, my hubby got curious when he heard what they claimed to be, an all-you-can-eat sushi and seafood. The […]
Ever since this spot opened about three years ago, we have been wanting to try this place out. Didn’t think it will take this long… but hey, when you are living a fun, busy life with so many other places to try, it can take a long time sometimes… The first thing I heard […]
One of the important part of travel is time. You want to make sure you get to the airport on time so that you can make it to your flight on time. That is, if your flight don’t get delayed…let’s hope that does not happen too often. With that, it is always a plus when […]
I discovered this new-ish French restaurant in West Village. I had dined at this location a few years ago, but it was a completely different restaurant. The staff told us that they have been opened about 7 months ago. It had beautiful exterior, lots of greenery, red awning, and red brick building. I say they […]
