Harmony Cafe

Harmony Cafe offers affordable yet delicious Chinese food.     Harmony Cafe is a Chinese restaurant I had never been to before this visit.

PONO BURGER

Pono Burger

Reviewing Pono Burger: Hawaiian cuisine meets the classic American burger in Los Angeles. I did not have to do much research to find Pono Burger in Santa Monica.

India's Restaurant

Reviewing India’s Restaurant: Indian food in the heart of Houston.

JOE’S STONE CRAB

Joe's Stone Crab

Reviewing Joe’s Stone Crab: Seafood Restaurant in Miami Beach. Joe’s Stone Crab has finally caught up with modern times, and I’m not sure who to thank for it. At one time, it was required that you be male to be a server. And, until recently, you had to know someone, wink-wink, and pay some hefty […]

BERNAL STAR

Bernal Star

Reviewing Bernal Star: The perfect homey go-to spot for American mid-afternoon snacks and drinks in San Francisco. Bernal Star is one of those local mom-and-pop restaurants that only people living in the neighborhood would know about. Most people would just walk past it without giving it a second glance. I stumbled upon it during its […]

MANDOLIN AEGEAN BISTRO

Mandolin Aegean Bistro

Reviewing Mandolin Aegean Bistro: Traditional Greek food in Miami. I wanted to be surprised when visiting Mandolin Aegean Bistro, so I didn’t look it up ahead of time. I did realize it was extremely popular though because, even two months out, we could only get a 3:30 p.m. reservation for the date we wanted. Given […]

CHITCHAT

Chitchat

Reviewing Chitchat Coffee and Matcha: Breakfast burritos and organic lattes in Los Angeles. One of my go-to’s in L.A. is Chitchat Coffee and Matcha. Not only do I rely on them for my morning matcha fix, but I do a lot of meetings there for work or to meet up with friends because I know […]

AGA’S

Aga's

Reviewing Aga’s: Indian Pakistani food in Houston. Aga’s is an immensely popular restaurant located outside of Houston. They are open seven days a week and are always busy. Most would agree this is a strong sign of intense popularity. However, their system of sitting people runs smoothly, so it does not take too long to […]

CASA BARAJAS

I love all the blends and variations of meats, cheeses, spices, and flavors that are incorporated into classic dishes, and I’m always craving that fun and vibrant experience that eating Mexican food provides. Casa Barajas is a Mexican restaurant […]

LOVE BURN

Love Burn

Reviewing Love Burn: Fried Chicken in South San Francisco. On the way to San Francisco, I stopped by South San Francisco and tried out Love Burn, a fried chicken shop. I’ve seen a few fellow foodies post about this place, and I decided to finally give it a try! I have not had many hot […]

THE MONT

the Mont

Reviewing The Mont: A classic diner feel with a delectable menu selection in the heart of SE Portland. When your best friend texts you a few months back saying she just had the best brunch in Portland and you finally have a free Sunday, you have to go. That is what brought me and three […]

TACO CITY

Reviewing Taco City: Affordable and authentic tacos in Washington D.C.’s Eastern Market neighborhood. Taco City is found in D.C.’s Eastern Market neighborhood. It’s a chill area with just enough other businesses and activities (e.g., a bar, a movie theater, and a flea market) to keep you from getting bored, but not so many that it’s […]
