Yama’s Fish Market (Hawaiian, Cheap Eats, Lunch/Dinner, Takeout, Honolulu) With all of the different cultures present in Oahu, you can almost forget that Hawaiians alone originally inhabited the island. They have such a great culture and a unique cuisine; I had to seek out some traditional Hawaiian grub on my […]

Rainbow Drive-In (Cheap Eats, Lunch/Dinner, Honolulu) A quick, cheap, casual dinner turned out to be pretty tasty at this drive-in. The loco-moco is a keystone in Hawaiian cuisine. It’s not exactly my type of dish, so I was happy when Jeff decided to try it out. It consists of a […]
I always save room for dessert, especially in Oahu. Leonard’s Bakery (Masaladas, Cheap Eats, Dessert, Honolulu) Our trip to this bakery was unexpected. I had it on my radar and definitely planned on getting some masaladas (a Portuguese donut) for dessert one night, but life can throw curveballs. We were […]
The Alley Restaurant at Aiea Bowl (Dinner, Leeward) One way to know Jeff and Julie are on vacation is after their 12-hour day shifts of zany activity they flop dead on the bed and watch the food network. We don’t have cable in our apartment so this is a tradition […]
Top Picks: Marukame Udon (Udon, Cheap Eats, Lunch/Dinner, Waikiki) Ultimate comfort food. This was one of the best meals we had on our trip, situated smack in the middle of Waikiki, super cheap and super fun experience. If you walk the streets of Waikiki you’ll notice a snaking line outside […]
After a long day of shopping and visiting a crazy roadside attraction, were hungry and in the Berkshires. To Nudel it was! A fine restaurant in Lenox, MA where we would enjoy a charming dinner. The chow was fantastic. We ordered three small plates and a small portion of pasta. […]
A very affordable lunch or dinner option with quality ingredients and tremendous taste: I’m talking about a grilled cheese sandwich from the Cheese Traveler in Albany’s DelSo neighborhood. I absolutely cannot believe it has taken me this long to visit while it was waiting for me not even five minutes […]
It’s been a rough couple of days in my apartment, between school, work, and both of us having a cold everything seemed to pile up! We’ve still managed to have some fun though, and also celebrate our 6-year anniversary. It was on a workday and with sunlight dwindling everything feels […]
My first experience with Croatian cuisine was very positive at Dubrovnik in New Rochelle. The place is very popular and only bar seats were available, but we were happy to get in and try it out. Bread and water were supplied and we waited a short time for our meal. […]
We visited Shwe Mandalay last night and had a great experience eating Burmese cuisine for the first time! The place was quiet, clean, and service was top notch. There is a small parking lot, it was great not having to park on the street on Central Ave. I enjoyed some […]
I just got back from an amazing trip to Toronto, Niagara Falls, and Letchworth State Park. I’ll break it down day-by-day: Day One Saturday morning we left real early to make Toronto by lunchtime, which was had at the St. Lawrence Market. Some locals recommended having a Peameal Bacon sandwich […]
Had a fun dinner at New World Home Cooking in Woodstock recently. The place gets packed, so definitely make a reservation. They give you a big hunk of thick bread to dip in what I believe was some hummus concoction to hold you over until you get your meal. We […]
If you’re down for a bit of a cruise, I’ve got a place for you. We were heading down state to visit our families, and decided to break up the trip with dinner. We stopped in Red Hook, a really charming town an hour south of Albany that I hope […]
If you ever told my mother I would be eating any of the things I eat today she would laugh at you. Until embarrassingly recent times, I was the pickiest eater. Not anymore! I’ll pretty much try anything once these days, and I’m trying to try everything at least once. […]
