It is always interesting to visit “the oldest” establishment, such as restaurant. I feel like they either stay completely authentic, or become a tourist spot, losing its authenticity. I found one of those “oldest” kind, the oldest French bistro in the Theatre District. It was founded in 1948, and still owned and managed by the […]

Amélie Wine Bar
One of the most interesting movies I’ve watched is called Amélie. It is such a cute, strange, adorable and weird story and characters! Well, I found a restaurant called Amélie, which is a modern wine bar/lounge with French flair. The inside decoration was…well, unique. It had white cloth loosely hanging on the black-colored ceiling, with bright red […]
La Bergamote
My weakness is desserts, and if it is Japanese or French, then that is it, I am done! I once heard a chef on a TV said that the best dessert he has ever had was a French dessert done Japanese way in Japan. I can totally understand that… However, while in America, I can […]
Sakagura #2
Since we had such great food at Sakagura the last visit specifically for their lunch special (you can read about it here: http://www.foodlovergirl.com/sakagura/), we went back for more! We went on a different day of the week, as their special lunch menu is weekly menu. Again, they only serve it 30 a day, and at […]
Lafayette Grand Café & Bakery
I have been wanting to go to Lafayette for some exquisite, upscale French-inspired desserts for a long time. We finally got to make our way over to this sweet heaven. It had a really large outdoor seating, more than most other restaurant, and they had big blue sunbrellas to keep customers cool. The inside was […]
e’s BAR
I had a pleasure of visiting this fun bar for an event. We had such a great time, so much more than expected. We like this neighborhood to begin with, but for some reason, we were not aware of this particular spot. But we are so happy we were introduced to this neighborhood gem! When […]
Macaron Parlour
Macaron has always been some sort of fancy, classy, upscale sweets in my mind. Since its popularity exploded several years ago, it has become more familiar, with much easier access. It also brought great amount of colors and flavors, some creative, some unusual. Everyone has their own opinion on which place has the best macaron […]
Tommy Bahama Restaurant – Bar – Store
Another great spot we got to visit during the Restaurant Week Summer 2016. Since we don’t shop at Tommy Bahamas (or I should say that we haven’t shopped there, yet), I didn’t even know this restaurant existed… Which is one of the greatest thing about this Restaurant Week events. We get to discover new restaurant […]
Root & Bone
I have been wanting this visit this restaurant ever since they opened. Finally, thanks the the Restaurant Week Summer 2016, it pushed us to make the visit! We got there just when they opened, so that we will get the full, perfect service while they have the 100% energy. Actually, we got there when they supposed […]
The Leopard at des Artistes
Another great spot we got to visit during the Restaurant Week Summer 2016 was The Leopard at des Artistes. We went for a weekend Brunch. It is located nearby Lincoln Center, nice quiet area. It had scaffolding right on that building, so we could not fully appreciate the beautiful architecture design on the building. However, […]
