Charleston is a city overflowing with bright colors, architectural charm, and palm trees. It’s very walkable, although there is also a free trolley that can get you to where you need to be. Parking can be a bit of a hassle, so if you plan on staying for a few […]

If you want really fresh, yummy, seafood combinations on the Kona side of the island, look no further than Sun Dried Specialties [81-951 Haleki’i St, Kealakekua, HI 96750]. No frills here, a few fold up tables, and the menu is written up on a board. You will find some complimentary […]
I love Center Square because it’s such a walkable neighborhood. There are so many local dining options, a never ending list of places to try for date nights. Not too long ago we tried out Terra [238 Washington Ave Albany, NY 12210] for the first time, just around the corner […]
I find myself California dreaming so often. It’s not just the winter weather getting me down, it happens in the summer too. Sure I love the California sunshine, the beautiful nature and beach, but really what California has that’s got me hankerin’ is some of the worlds best fish tacos. […]
You read a lot of books in high school, some are okay, some bore you, some you totally forget about, but a few stick with you…possibly forever. The Crucible by Arthur Miller was one of those sticky books for me. I don’t know if it was the history of the […]
We proclaimed, “This was the summer of Claws,” and what a fine summer it has been. With all the brilliant sunshiney weather there was, I never wanted to be inside. Claws [20 Main St West Sayville, NY 11796] was the perfect spot to sit outside, canal-side, and eat delicious fresh […]
Sandwiched between two major attractions, the city of LA and Disneyland, there are a number of suburban cities that seem quiet in comparison. You may find yourself booking a hotel in one of these more relaxed atmospheres to escape the hustle bustle of major tourism. If you are staying in […]
We stayed in Pacific Beach as many tourists do when visiting San Diego, and enjoyed it very much for our needs. The location is very central to all neighborhoods of the city, many shops (specifically Garnet St.) and restaurants are in walking distance, and the beach is beautiful. Our hotel […]
The island of Coronado was the first San Diego neighborhood on the list to explore, and it made for a most lovely afternoon. Driving over the sky blue bridge that gradually rises over the sparking water of the San Diego bay was a glorious sight. After a long morning of […]
Hula Grill Waikiki (Dinner/Dessert, Waikiki) Our one typically tourist fancy pants dinner was here on our first night in Oahu. The place was packed when we got there for our 6:45 reservation and service was a little sluggish, but sweet. It’s a little loud but if you are capable of […]
Top Picks: Kahuku Farm Cafe (Locally Grown, Lunch/Dessert, Northshore) Even on a chilly windy day under a tent in the pouring rain, this place managed to leave a really positive impression on us. We scampered from the car to the cover of the Farm Café and put our order in. […]
Top Picks: Tanioka’s Seafoods: (Poke, Cheap Eats, Lunch [or early dinner], Takeout, Leeward) Our favorite meal of the entire trip was here; we visited this spot twice and both times were fantastic. This small local joint is situated in a strip mall next to a 7-11, off of a main parkway. […]
After a beautiful beach day at my favorite spot Robert Moses I had dinner with my mom at the Captree Cove Restaurant in Babylon. I don’t know what is better here, the view or the food. I love looking out into the bay at the boats coming to and fro […]
