We had a tasty opportunity to try out some of the dishes offered at Kalye at an event. They opened in 2022, when the city and the world is coming back from the struggles of pandemic. It is described on their website that their name, Kalye, “comes from the Tagalog word for “street.” We chose […]

Set L.E.S. 2023
We first visited Set L.E.S. in 2020, and I remember how amazing the Bulgogi Burger was from there. We liked the fun and vibrant atmosphere, the food, and drink. Now in 2023, we finally got to revisit again. They now have a huge outdoor seating, with bright yellow chairs. It is fully covered, so you […]
Red Feather – CLOSED
We were looking for a brunch spot, and we were feeling some kind of Asian food. We found Red Feather near Washington Square Park. There are several steps up to the restaurant entrance, not accessible from what I could see. The inside was a bit smaller that I thought it would be. The exterior and […]
BLACKBARN Restaurant
I have been interested in BLACKBARN for while, and when we walk by during peak hours, it was always looked full and busy. A good sign of good food. So, when my family was here during the late summer of 2022, I decided to take them there for lunch. We had successful lunch/brunch at spots […]
The Little Shop 2022
When we first visited this adorable and super awesome Speakeasy, The Little Shop for the first time, we absolutely loved it! So, when my mother and my niece were visiting us in September 2022, we decided to take them there. They were of course a bit confused when we took them to a small grocery […]
Hotel Chantelle
Ever since we first visited Hotel Chantelle in 2016, we became fans of this spot. We especially love their rooftop dining. It has such fun and cute Parisian feel to it. We thought my mother and my niece would also really like this place, so we brought them for an early brunch in September 2022. […]
Dowling’s at The Carlyle
One of the fine dining places I took my mother and niece was the gorgeous Dowling’s at The Carlyle. They have several dining room options at The Carlyle, all beautifully decorated and unique on its own way, making the decision difficult. I went with the Dowling’s at The Carlyle since we needed the real lunch […]
Steak Frites Bistro
Since the pandemic, we haven’t really had the opportunity to take an advantage off of the Restaurant Week promotions. This winter, we finally got to try the Restaurant Week menu at Steak Frites Bistro. They offer bistro cuisine such as oysters, escargot, onion soup, and of course, steak frites. As soon as you step inside, […]
Ruby’s Cafe
We went to have a brunch at one of the Ruby’s Cafe at Soho location last summer. Yes, I am still catching up from last year… They don’t take reservation, and so there might be a little wait when you go there during the peak time. The SoHo location is the only spot we’ve visited, […]
Emily
I have many loves when it comes to food. One of which is a good burger. For that reason, Emily has been on my radar for a long time. You might think that they are more of a pizzeria, and yes, they do offer pizza, and obviously pizza loves Emily according to their cute neon […]
