Upon arrival, we rushed right away to have lunch at the Borough market at Elliot’s. We were invited by my cousin since this is one of her favorite spots in London
She ordered all the starters and we ordered the main
Buffalo mozzarella and red pepper and basil
Artichokes ala qrecque
Ria recommended this so almost everyone ordered cheeseburger- so when it arrived – the dolly was full of cheeseburgers! 🙂

The Foodie son told us to try this, so we did! We lined up.
He warned us that it is the Halal Guys with a line since there are many other stalls that look similar like this one beside the LOVE sign
This was the one across the MOMA on 53rd street
And yes there was a long line
I wanted a photo of all the Halal Guys but they were so busy but this guy who served my chicken rice was kind enough to pose for me 🙂
Chicken and rice with extra white sauce
We crossed the street and sat on the stairs of the building
Watching the long line to the MOMA Free Friday nights and enjoying our chicken rice!

The Foodie’s 18th birthday was prolonged with so many celebrations 🙂 This was finally the day itself and he picked a place from his list. I love trying new restaurants and Jaime is adventurous too!
It was only Me and Jaime since James was not feeling that well that evening
Exhaust 🙂 on top of each table
The foodie is adventurous – he was attracted to this restaurant because of the unique menu offering they had – read carefully below 🙂
Foie Gras Stuffed Mini kobe burger!! It was really mini 🙂 but an interesting dish!!! They poured the hot chocolate sauce on top!!
Niku Uni
Instead of ordering the regular kalbi and other grilled meats you can get in other restaurants, we got the Pot Kalbi which is a house special – it’s marinated overnight for 24 hours with their special sauce and has miso butter sauce on the side. I am not sure why it’s not in the menu on the website
Shio Tan – Tongue. We wanted the special tongue to try something different but they were out of it
The birthday boy chose the dessert! Why Choose? “I’ll have it with the works”! YUM!

We received news from the two lovely sisters Faith and Ana that Ken’s new branch in Bryant Park was opening!!! That was why we went to Bryant Park 🙂 We were happy to be in New York at that time and glad to send good wishes
Store front
The guy behind Royce USA, Ken Romaniszyn! We were so glad to bump into him there! I was really hoping he would be there so I could take his photo 🙂
Pretty Store manager, Marica Lucia Santiago, who is Filipina!
New to me 🙂
And right beside the Royce store is Lady M! So we walked next door
Here he is again! Ken started out as an investor in Lady M and eventually now is in full control. And it is because of him that Lady M has grown from one store to four stores! I heard there are many exciting locations in the pipeline!!
Wow!! Heart2Heart fell in love instantly when we first tasted Lady M’s crepe Mille Feuille cake

Sunday family lunch with Lolo in New Jersey!! Yipee! 🙂 This was across the Ben and Jerry’s store in Ridgewood
Too bad it was not a weekday! 🙂
According to Tita Tess this is the best dimsum place that she knows of in New Jersey 🙂
They also pass around bubble teas 🙂
After being away from family for about 10 days, I was happy to see some family especially my Lolo!! And we were able to celebrate Jaime’s birthday as well
