$$, Cuisine, Flatiron District, Korean, New York, Price Range By October 17, 2017 Tags: , , , , , , , , , , , 1 Comment
The Korean-born Chef Hooni Kim was at some point in his life destined to be Dr. Hooni Kim! He indeed went to medical school when he realized that the title “Chef” was a better fit for him. He came back to New York City where he had grown up and studied at the French Culinary Institute, now called the International Culinary Center.

Lupa Osteria Romana

$$$, Cuisine, Greenwich Village, Italian, New York, Price Range By September 27, 2017 No Comments
Lupa is my friend’s daughter’s boyfriend’s roommate’s favorite Italian restaurant in New York City! Even if you cannot follow all that, I must say I am glad it is because Lupa is actually an amazing restaurant. The aforementioned friend was visiting from Texas and I had not seen her since we both moved from Paris a year ago. Lupa seemed for whatever reason the perfect place for our reunion.

L’Arpège…

7th arrondissement, Cuisine, French, Paris By September 19, 2017 1 Comment
Woah! A three Michelin-starred restaurant is going vegetarian? This decision in 2001 by Alain Passard, owner of Arpège, sure must have raised some eyebrows – no more meat! Chef Alain Passard is not afraid to risk his stars to impose his views: he wants only seasonal organically grown vegetables to be the center of his menu – no more leeks in summer, no more tomatoes in winter!

Balagan By Valerie Steinlauf!

$$$, 1st arrondissement, Cuisine, Mediterranean, Paris, Price Range By September 5, 2017 No Comments
On a recent trip to Paris, my friends and I went to the newly opened and very buzz-y Balagan, located at rue d’Alger, by the hotel Renaissance, in the 1st arrondissement.
This is not your typical Parisian establishment, and we loved it all the more as a result! Its excellent service and inventive cuisine do not take itself too seriously, and that’s exactly what Paris needed!

Hossegor… How Did I Miss You!

Travel By August 23, 2017 1 Comment
It took 25 years of marriage to finally travel to the region where my husband spent his childhood vacations: Hossegor. Not that I didn’t like it, or I thought it wasn’t interesting…and it was certainly not because I wanted to make him unhappy. Do I look like I’m a bad wife? But after hearing the same story over and over again, I felt like I myself spent my own vacations there.
