Angelino Ai Fiori
We’re now on day 4 and a proper meal hasn’t been had since morning. We’ve gone to the colosseum and the baby has slept. So we think we’d be able to do the Roman Forum too, while he’s asleep and then grab a bite. But ...

Ristorante Belforte
I believe I must’ve bookmarked this place for the views. I didn’t recollect. All of Vernazza, at least by the waters, looked touristy. So I decided to try this place. Even if it meant just whiling time, waiting for restaurant to ...

Nessun Dorma
I’d looked this place up before going. And while sitting there wasn’t particularly necessary to get great views, we stopped anyway as we were hungry. The place is more of a drink place, not particularly an eat place. Especially not ...

Jaiya Thai UES
This was a first of its kind weekend. First time we made a day especially about the kid. Not that we don’t bring him out, but it’ll usually be our kind of place too. Plus an importance on a meal. I guess that’ll never go away, as ...

La Taberna
The second lunch stop and the third meal stop for the day. Just steps away from our first lunch stop that day, this place was busier than the first. And it looked more inviting too. So allowing baby K to be a baby, run and play, we preferred to just ...

12 Chairs Cafe
It turned out to be just the kind of place I was in a mood for that day. Good food. Great jachnun, the first time I had it. Liken it to a lachcha paratha, only slightly sweetened or a puff pastry, only softer and not crispy. I absolutely loved ...

Curried Roasted Sweet Potato Soup with Tarragon
I love creamy soups. Their creamy texture and vibrant flavors all spell “comfort” to me. This deliciously rich and seductively silky soup showcases the sweet potato. An ancient tuber, sweet potatoes have been radiocarbon-dated in ...
