Where: ともえ鮨 Tomoe Sushi 172 Thompson Street New York, NY 10012 When: January 3, 2005 This is my first and best experience at ともえ鮨 Tomoe Sushi. Something seems to be missing at all my other visits.

Republic
1970-01-01 00:59:59
Where: Republic 37 Union Square West New York, NY 10003 When: January 30, 2005 Republic Republic has very unique seating. Its long tables and benches maximize the capacity of the similarly narrow rectangular restaurant. But the furniture has hard sharp corners and edges, which can easily bruise knees and legs. The walls, on the other hand, are decorated with harmlessly clever posters.

Where: 好煮意 Dream Kitchen 84 Avenue O Brooklyn, NY 11204 When: May 21, 2005 After hearing raving reviews from MC and SY, I decided to walk to 好煮意 Dream Kitchen.

Dream Kitchen's chef, who is from Hong Kong,

Where: Tao 42 East 58th Street New York, NY 10022 When: May 29, 2006 Tao Yes, yes, many celebrities have been to Tao. But that is not why I was there. I went there for the desserts or more specifically their Giant Fortune Cookie. The waitress put three fortune slips outside of the cookie shell, because the inside is filled with dark chocolate mousse in one half and white chocolate mousse in


Philly Cheesesteak
1970-01-01 00:59:59
Where: Philadelphia, PA When: May 28, 2006 While I was in Philadelphia, of course I tried to look for the most traditional and local Philly Cheesesteak. But there were no decent sandwich shops wherever we went. Finally, I got one from a cart outside of a CVS near Market East Station minutes before hopping onto the bus heading back to New York. It is difficult to get anymore local than that. SY

Where: Hangawi 12 East 32nd Street New York, NY 10016 212-213-0077 When: April 7, 2006 Many restaurants made me want to start a food journal. But Hangawi is the one that made me actually do it. Hangawi is a Korean vegetarian restaurant. Most of its dishes even fit the standards of vegans, which means it is not one of the restaurants that sushi lovers like me and my friends would frequent. But

To congratulate myself, I had lunch at Tea Box, which is located in the basement of Takashimaya.

Where: Friendly 's 201 Hallock Road Stony Brook, New York 11790 631-751-3150 When: May 7, 2006 There are many franchises that you just will not see in Manhattan and Friendly's is one of them. Friendly's No one would rent a plot of land in the city to build something like this. If someone tries to fit a Friendly's into the first floor of a certain building, then it would not be a Friendly's

Where: Bar 89 89 Mercer Street New York, New York 10012 212-274-0989 When: June 4, 2006 I usually do not take pictures of restrooms. But the one at Bar 89 is special.
