As I have written about before, U.S.-style brunch is a little difficult to find in Seoul. It is not impossible to get, but many of the so-called “brunch” options include food that is not traditionally included in a classic U.S. brunch, such as strip steak or carbonara pasta. On June 18, I returned to one of my favorite brunch spots with my significant other: Travel Maker in Hongdae.Read More »
I have written about the Dunkin’ Donuts and Starbucks rivalry before:
In the United States, a bitter rivalry exists: Starbucks vs. Dunkin’ Donuts. Fans of Dunkin’ Donuts point to Dunkin’ Donuts’ affordability (and its donuts). Fans of Starbucks argue that Starbucks cafés have nicer atmospheres.
I love Dunkin’ Donuts, but the atmosphere of many Dunkin’ Donuts’ branches are simply bland and uninteresting. However, Dunkin’ Donuts’ 1021 South Main Street branch in Cheshire, Connecticut is cute and cozy. I visited with friends on December 29th.Read More »

Do you have a sweet tooth? Are most dessert cafés closed? Insomnia Cookies, open every day until 3 a.m., can help! I visited the New Haven branch with friends on December 27 to check it out.Read More »
In the United States, a bitter rivalry exists: Starbucks vs. Dunkin’ Donuts. Fans of Dunkin’ Donuts point to Dunkin’ Donuts’ affordability (and its donuts). Fans of Starbucks argue that Starbucks cafés have nicer atmospheres. Dunkin’ Donuts offers fun, sweet treats, whereas Starbucks caters to a more hipster, selective crowd. Although I like both, I am solidly on #TeamDD, and my December 31 trip to the Dunkin’ Donuts 461 West Main Street branch in Cheshire, CT showed why.Read More »
The white clam pizza at Frank Pepe Pizzeria Napoletana in New Haven, Connecticut is ranked the best pizza in the United States. Actress Meryl Streep, President Bill Clinton, actor Robert De Niro, and singer Kelly Clarkson have all eaten at Pepe’s. On December 28, I returned to Pepe’s for dinner with four friends.Read More »
On December 22 in Hongdae, I was searching with a friend for a nice place to eat dinner. We were walking in the south of the main area when we saw a sign for Taco Lab: Maxican Casual Grill and Pub. When we entered, the waiter told us that they were having an opening sale.Read More »
On December 27, I visited The Stand in Branford, Connecticut. I went with two friends on the day after Boxing Day. It has a classic American barn décor, and includes a restaurant with a bar and a small stage for live performances. The weather was cold outside, but the restaurant had a warm and friendly vibe to it.Read More »
