A Week of Food…Part 1

School’s back in session for me ever since the past Monday and that means I’m spending more time in the city eating out besides school and studying. And I took the eating portion a bit seriously this week since I felt depraved from the food scene since I was working and/or studying almost the entire [...]

That Is Some French Macaron…

For the past week I went to Madeline Patisserie in Chelsea since I remember reading recently from the NY Times that they sell macarons (Please don’t confuse them with the coconut macaroons; this is the almond meringue based cookies sandwiched with ganache or buttercream, ok?); one of my multitudinous food obsessions and my hopes to [...]

Gray’s Papaya, Yolato, and Kee’s Chocolates’ Macarons

I recently visited the city for lunch with my friend Dave. We ate lunch, or least I did when we stopped by to Gray’s Papaya for their hot dog…or is it a frankfurter?

Everything Eaten before the Kyotofu Dinner…and other stuff

I know I should have posted everything I’ve eaten on Thursday in one LONG post but I wasn’t motivated since I had to write journals for one of my classes that ended up to be twenty pages long. My brain dried up of any use of any prose, hence my lack of writing for that [...]

Homemade Bread, Macarons, Almondine, and Bouchon (again)

This is to back track everything that has happened the entire week or so. Starting with some homemade bread.

I made this bread before I actually ate out with my aunt (the one who’s visiting from Hong Kong) from my earlier post, at Chung Moo Roo but since I don’t really have a real recipe [...]

A Day of Baked Goods and Fooding: A Girls’ Day Out

This is the second, separate post for something that has taken 6 1/2 hours of hanging out with a lot of my girlfriends. This post will be about the fooding portion of the day; the macaron hunt was the previous one. Got it? Good.

Sunday morning was the plan that Robyn and I have our [...]

In Search of the French Macaron in NYC…

Finding a delicious or even a good French macaron in New York City is nearly impossible. Why? It’s because it’s not that popular in comparison to (the easily confused with) the coconut macaroon and the ones I usually find taste terrible. So, Robyn and I set out a journey to find the best macaron possible [...]

Little Bits of Announcements…

I’m not writing an official food post today, just because I’m (supposed to) writing a ten page paper but only up to page three. Woohooo… Enough with my crappy, soul-sucking, academic life, here’s a bit of random announcements that are food related that you may want to know about or participate in.

Those of you [...]

NY Kom Tang Soot Bul Kai Bi & Bouchon Bakery with Robyn

Today was a bit unusual for me to go fooding with someone since it’s a Monday. That someone was Robyn. She e-mailed me over on Sunday regarding to a favor that I’ve asked for when she went to her food and fun excursion to Paris for her Spring Break (Lucky girl), which is getting me [...]
