Our time in Chicago has almost come to an end, and with 4 ramen shops under our belt we feel as though we made a good dent on the scene as a whole. Through the week we found ourselves in a record breaking polar vortex that was truly the coldest I’ve ever been in my…

High Five Ramen – restaurant week – Chicago Illinois.
Our last ramen stop of the week was definitely a unique one, and that’s where High Five Ramen entered our lives. After trying the previous night to get a table we where told there would be a 3 hour wait, which we couldn’t do on that particular evening. We had one more chance before work…
Ramen San – restaurant week – Chicago Illinois.
For our second ramen adventure of the week we found ourselves on our way to Ramen San. I would like to point out that when I first arrived in Chicago on the Sunday evening I had ordered delivery from Ramen San. I would recommend to not get ramen delivery but to instead head to the…
MORE brewing leaves us wanting more in Villa park, Illinois.
This week my husband and I took quite a pricey Uber from Rosemont Illinois to Villa Park, a hefty 16 mile trip, and I have to say that we where not disappointed in the slightest. After researching nearby breweries online there was just something about MORE that really ticked all of the boxes for us….
Soupy dumplings and beef scallion pancakes at Jane G’s restaurant – Philadelphia PA.
On rainy nights you’ll often find my husband and I at a soupy dumpling joint, and this week in Philly was no exception. Once again, our love for food beat our hatred of miserable weather, and we ventured out into the wet night; just two hungry foodies in love. Thanks to the internet these days…

Bud and Marilyn’s – Philadelphia PA – a great homage to the original Bud and Marilyn!
If you’re looking for open arms, the best brunch in town, and some boozy mid day love, then look no further than Bud and Marilyn’s. From the outside it gave away no clues, and the Bud and Marilyn’s sign drew an eager eye with its fancy font and intriguing lure; I had heard many good…
Terakawa Ramen; our love of Tonkotsu lives on in Philadelphia, PA.
This week we are in Philadelphia, and it feels good to be back reviewing restaurants after a dry spell in not so good hotel/work locations. The starvation of good eats has seemed to take its toll on morale at Casa Conley, but we’ve been pumping out some fantastic home cooked meals which you can find…
Pizza and donuts like never before – Raleigh, North Carolina.
This week my husband turned 30 years old in Raleigh, North Carolina. Stuck with what to do, and knowing that although the day would involve craft beer 100%, we also needed something along the lines of food; welcome, Poke Burri. I searched online for ramen joints, for pho joints, for Korean bbq joints, and just…
The Deklab food hall adventure continues into part 2 with baos, sushi hand rolls, and craft beer. You can’t miss this!

I walked quickly in the cold air, thankful that the rain had departed earlier that day, and waited patiently as the escalator delivered me to my new found food paradise. What was on the menu today? I…
