Although it does offer frozen yogurt now, you don’t order frozen yogurt at a place that specializes in ice cream. Go for the ice cream… well in my case I wanted the cookie too. Kill two birds with one stone. Hello ice cream sandwiches!

North End Caffe is located in Manhattan Beach, which is not far from the LAX airport. It was featured on Food Network’s Diners. Drive Ins, and Dives so I was prepared for something deliciously greasy before my red eye out. It was in fact delicious!

I actually spent half a year living in The Netherlands and Absinthe Brasserie & Bar brought me back to those times. Absinthe breathes old European feel with an innovative and creative menu that represents San Francisco and California tastes with West Coast flavours.

BJ’s Restaurant & Brewery doesn’t only have a dirty name, but it has chain written all over it. Little did I know, since I was playing tourist in San Francisco. It’s famous for their signature Chicago style deep dish pizza and pizookie dessert!

I went to Iron Chef Masaharu Morimoto’s restaurant Morimoto Napa in Napa Valley, California. The cuisine is eclectic Japanese fusion fine dining in a posh atmosphere. What was supposed to be just drinks, turned into trying his most famous Toro Tartare, Fig Tempura and “Bubble Tea”.
Fashion + Food. That’s pretty much my perfect combination, so I was all over Sift Cupcake & Dessert Bar which operates from a clothing store. Yes, it was really cute, pink, and girly as expected, and it’s been named #1 Cupcake & Best Cupcake in Napa Valley, California.
Joe’s Ice Cream in San Francisco, California is an old fashioned ice cream parlour serving home made ice creams prepared by the Japanese family that owns and operates it. It offers some unique Asian flavours such as green tea ice cream.
