It was just another Friday evening. We successfully made it through the week and all of our groceries. Hunger strikes and the age-old question is asked, “what’s for dinner?” Over the past few months there has been quite a bit of buzz about Chester’s Smokehouse [15 Watervliet Ave, Albany, NY […]

For months we watched the little brick storefront beside the Lion Heart say, ‘opening soon.’ To be honest, I didn’t expect much. I never do for the ventures on and around Lark Street for some reason. The restaurant opened, and everyday Jeff kept saying, let’s go! I shrugged it off […]
Driving over the bridge onto Folly Island you will instantly be overwhelmed with a beach town vibe. Roll the windows down and breath it in. It was lunchtime so that meant a visit to folly’s favorite place to grab a bite, the Lost Dog Café [106 W Huron Ave, Folly […]
Volcano red, macadamia nut honey, and Hawaiian guava grape. With names like those, who wouldn’t want to taste some fruity wine while in paradise? The vibe at Volcano Winery [35 Piimauna Dr, Volcano, HI 96785 10-530] is classy, yet laid back, the true essence of Hawaii. I love the intensity […]
One faithful night we had what was easily our best meal on Big Island, and quite possibly one of the best on Hawaii, or anywhere else for that matter! Moon and Turtle [51 Kalakaua St Hilo, HI 96720] is a small and thoughtful restaurant. There is a clear focus on […]
A café with a spiritual side, go in for a tea leaf and tarot card reading, or simply for a scrumptious sandwich. The Enchanted Café [7484 S Broadway Red Hook, New York] in Red Hook has got a different vibe. Cozy as life should be in Red Hook, but with […]
Breakfast is the most important meal of the day, and when that day is jam-packed with a travel itinerary it is important to be well fed from the get go. Since we were based out of Nørrebro we spent a good deal of time on Jægersborggade Street, a short block […]
If you are looking to start your day off right in the Catskills, head to Twin Peaks Coffee and Donuts in Tannersville, [5950 Main St Tannersville, New York] your day might just be complete after breakfast. I fell in love at first sight, and that love was solidified at first […]
On a chilly Sunday afternoon there was no lovelier place than a sunny window seat looking out at the patio in the Saratoga Winery [462 Route 29 Saratoga Springs, NY 12866] dreaming of warmer days. In this spacious winery everything around us was wooden from the floors to the tables to […]
I absolutely love the vibe emanating from this joint! We ventured out to Troy for some breakfast and found some easy free street parking (275 River Street, Troy, NY 12180). There was definitely a lot of thought put into the decorating and I really appreciate that. I enjoyed looking around and […]
If you’re looking for a breakfast sandwich that’s absolutely delicious, fast, with no frills…you go to Jack’s (547 Central Avenue, Albany, NY 12206). The classic dining car is located on Central Ave and has a parking lot, a quick drive from Center Square. We had a late start and got […]
I’m not the biggest wino, but I loved every wine I tasted at Hudson-Chatham Winery…that’s got to be saying something (1900 New York 66, Ghent, NY 12075 )! We were meandering about Columbia County on a winter’s day and decided to pop in for a tasting and take our favorite bottle […]
I recently visited a ‘quesadillary’ in Troy called Muddaddy Flats, which has a quesadilla for any state of mind (49 3rd Street Troy, NY 12180). Parking on the streets is metered, and we were able to find a spot easily close to the storefront. It was a seriously freezing day […]
The Catskills have just got the funkiest places; I recently had a fantastic lunch at Last Chance Cheese Antiques and Café in the town of Tannersville (6009 Main Street, Tannersville, NY 12485). We had just come from a hike and were hungry (story of our lives) and this place so […]
I had breakfast at the Natural Way Café in Guilderland with some friends not too long ago. The place was different than I expected inside, it was pretty spacious and modern seeming. We all ordered breakfast sandwiches, and one of my friends asked for eggs over easy, and he was […]
