Waffle bowl sundae

What a great dessert for the summer! A waffle bowl filled with lychee shaved ice and topped with blueberries and mango popping boboa. You can find this dessert in Snow Station, a shaved ice place located in LA.  It is a great portion for two people. The waffle cone comes with one choice of snow, 2 toppings, whipped cream, a cherry and the waffle bowl. This place served about 20 different flavors of shaved ice.

K-BBQ Burger

Let's face it! NYC has tons of burger places but which one is your go to burger?

One of the most popular burger chains is Umami Burger. It is an Asian fusion burger place that served over 12 different kind of savory burgers. I ordered the K-BBQ one and maple bacon fries. So damnnnnn good and filling! My whole meal was salty, spicy and sweet. After the first bite, I just couldn't stop eating it.

Thirsty Thursday

 

 

 

What's your favorite beverage?

If you're looking for something refreshing and shareable check out Howl at the Moon's bucket drink. The buckets filled with various alcohol and it came with colorful straws. It is definitely notable in the restaurant. My friend and I ordered the fruit roll up...so good:p

It is a great shareable drink for 3-4 people.

Matcha Milk Latte

 

 

If you happen to go to LA especially the orange county area, you must check out the Packing District if you like food? There's a new food vendor opened called Mini Monster that served these cute big jar drinks, ice cream and shaved snow.

The line was actually quite long maybe because of the weekend. I got one of their jar drinks, matcha milk latte and the good thing is you can keep the jar:)

Smoke-free bbq?

BBQ is all about grilling the meat but do you know there's a smoke-free way to do it nowadays? If you never heard if it, check out this trendy Korean bbq restaurant, Kristalbelli. They served great cocktails and robust korean food. They are known for their crystal grill style bbq which they used a high tech crystal grill to cook the meat in order to reduce smoke and smell.

Raindrop Cake

Introducing the new food craze in Smorgasburg this summer...Raindrop Cake!

Most people would asked "are they good" or "what is it?"

 






                    It is a Japanese dessert inspired by  Mizu Shingen Mochi. The water cake itself has no taste because it is made out of water so that's why it accompanied with some brown sugar syrup and roasted soybean powder on the side. I have tried the cake over the weekend and personally I don't think it's really worth the money. It cost about $8 and paying for a piece of water jello made out of poland spring water is pretty steep. One thing to keep in mind: when you're eating the raindrop cake with syrup and roasted soybean powder make sure you don't breathe while you're eating it. The soybean powder is not very fine powder so you could get a bit choked if you don't swallow it thoroughly. Therefore, I wouldn't recommend for babies or kids but you can definitely feed them the raindrop cake without the soybean powder.

This new dessert creation is certainly interesting. By judging the way it looks, it could really attract people to come see it and questioning what is it?

I would give them credits for the most unique looking dessert but the taste part doesn't really intrigued me.  But one of the good things about this dessert is that there is no calories if you only consume the raindrop cake itself.

Wagon wheel pasta with shrimps

My homemade wagon wheel pasta dish with shrimps, veggies and marinara sauce. Happy National Shrimp Day everyone:)

Elote

 

 

One of the popular Mexican street eats is Elote (corn on the cob). My favorite condiments for the elote are chile pepper, salt, lemon juice and bbq butter. I personally prefer grilled corns over steamed corns. It is also one of my favorite street snacks when I'm outside and hanging out with friends.

Coconut Cream Pie

Mmmhhh! The best coconut cream pie I have ever tried in my life so far is in Capital Grill. The dish was delicious and smooth. It served with their house made caramel sauce, a nice vanilla crust, whipped cream, ice cream and topped with a piece of cookie. For those who have a sweet tooth, I would definitely recommend getting their coconut cream pie for dessert.

Taco bout it

I hope everyone had a great Cinco De Mayo:)

This holiday is all about margaritas, nachos and tacos. So far the most delicious tacos I have tried is in Bill's Bar & Burger. I ordered their spicy chicken tacos that served with 3 crispy tortillas. Soooo good! Besides bill's burger, you should definitely have a taste of their tacos;)

GD BRO Burger

If you ever plan to visit Los Angeles, you must check out GD BRO Burger. They are known for their red colored buns that infused by raspberry. Don't let the red color scare you off, it is not spicy at all. I would recommend ordering the Juan & Only burger if you are like it spicy. Besides burger, the consuela fries are pretty popular. It is basically fries coated with pepper jack cheese, chipotle mayo, freshly chopped pico de gallo and avocado. The burger itself is already a good size and it will definitely filled you up for the day.

Enjoying this delicious chocolate lava cake in the Chart House. This is one of their popular desserts that served with a scoop of vanilla ice cream on the side. My first bite was nice, warm and chocolatey.
