Casa Mono…Yes or No?
So, I’ve been getting into tapas bars recently so naturally Casa Mono came up on my list. This is one of Mario Batali’s restaurants, and it’s also where the 2nd season of Top Chef, Ilan Hall, cooked prior to winning. I would pass by this place everyday walking home from NYU campus when I lived…

Burger Thursday + Late Saturday Brunch
Thursday, February 1. Corner Bistro is where my friends and I trek to, even in such cold weather for lunch. Located in the West Village, it’s a great place to have a simple All-American meal – burgers and beer. Despite the fact that by accident, my friend spilled beer all over my stuff & me (which…

NYC Winter Restaurant Week: Payard
For NYC’s Winter Restaurant Week, which is still going on, I dragged all my wonderful friends to Payard Patisserie & Bistro. It’s located on Lexington between 73rd and 74th St…a nice location since it’s right next to the 6. Trust me, the weather in NY is extremely cold so anything near a subway station is KEY to a…

After A Long Break…Japanese!
Yes, I know it’s been a while since I’ve blogged…I completelyapologize for my lack of food entries and journies. It’s been quite hectic lately – job search, school work, midterms, club activities. All those things add up to ZERO free time. However, I’ve found time to go to restaurants, eat, and take pictures. I gotta say, one of…

August Part 1
Long time no blog! It’s been quite a busy few weeks finishing up my internship, seeing friends from home, helping out with freshmen orientation at NYU…so I apologize for the lack of entries. However, that doesn’t mean I’m taking any less pictures. My friends around me can testify to that. My ability to sneak in…

Jane + S’mac
Because my uncle was here from the awesome little island, Taiwan, my mom wanted to show him to Jane. She apparently loves this place. I don’t believe they’ve truly experienced what American Brunch is, so that was great showing them how it is. This is what I got – a mushroom omelette. Since it’s been a while,…

Vonnnnng
This past Thursday, my wonderful roommate Vic organized a nice outting to Vong which is one of Jean-Georges’ restaurants. As you can see from the lovely entrance, it was quite a fancy smansy place for us poor college students (with paying internships!). It is Thai-French cuisine…who would have thought that those two would come together.…
