Super Strawberry Shortcake

Where can you find that delicious and plus size strawberry shortcake? Guess what you can get it from this popular chain, Cheesecake Factory that served a variety of great food, drinks and of course cheesecakes:-p
The strawberry shortcake is absolutely one of my favorite desserts besides their snicker bar cheesecake. For those of you who are curious to try it, please be aware that it is a big portion. It is also a great dessert choice for sharing with friends.

Edible Plant?

Ever seen a dessert dish looked like a house plant? Trust me..this is absolutely edible even though it looks like a real plant. This dish is called "The Harvest" and you can get it from Spot Dessert Bar. They have several locations throughout the city and they are known for its dessert tapas.
So what's in it? It is made from oreo crumbs, soft cheesecake, berries, meringue kisses, raspberry sorbet and black rose milk tea.

Chicken & Waffles

Ahhh...waffles! Waffles are everywhere that comes with different variations. You can eat it for breakfast, brunch, snack and dessert. I like all kinds of waffles but my favorite is waffles with chicken that I will never say no if I see it on the menu.  The best chicken & waffles entree I have tried so far is in Five Napkin Burger. For those of you never heard of Five Napkin Burger, it is one of the popular burger chains headquartered in New York City that is known for their burgers and sandwiches. It is also a great place for family and kids to dine in. They changed their menu once in a while but if you ask for their chicken & waffles I'm pretty sure they can make it for you. The dish comes with a big piece of waffle and topped with couple pieces of fried chicken and buttermilk gravy...yum! yum! Happy International Waffles Day everyone:)

Super Nachos!!!

Happy National Chips & Dip day everyone:)

What would you think of for chips & dip day?...Nachos!!!

I love nachos especially dipping in fresh salsa, guacamole and cheese.

Lobster Ravioli

Happy National Ravioli Day everyone:-)

Who doesn't like ravioli? In Italian, "ravioli" means "to wrap." Ravioli pasta is all about the filling and the sauce but sometimes it really depends on what I'm in the mood for. My favorite is ravioli with seafood filling e.g. lobster, crab, etc. and topped with either creamy pesto sauce or fresh tomato & artichoke sauce.

I ordered this dish from an Italian restaurant..don't recalled the name but it's located in Little Italy. It was so creamy and delicious.

Macarons (dim sum style)

Macarons served in a bamboo basket?
This is my first time seeing an assortment of macarons served in a round shaped steamer made from bamboo aka mushiki. If anyone interested in trying the asian style macarons you should definitely go check out this authentic Cantonese restaurant, Hakkasan located in Midtown west. They served great well mixed cocktails and yummy Cantonese cuisines. It is a bit dark inside but very romantic setting with modern Asian wall interior decoration. There are total of 7 macarons in the bamboo basket but it would be cool if they can do 7 different colors just like a rainbow;)
