Takoyaki at home

You can finally eat takoyaki at home. At Sunrise, you can find frozen takoyaki's.
I tried to cook them in macrowave, which wasn't successful. Chris finally put them in a toaster oven and they came out to be perfect.

Otafuku in East Village only makes good takoyaki's. A lot of restaurants in the city try, but they are not the same. But now I am glad that I can eat these at home.

This is the brand that I buy and I am extremely happy with it.

Happy Valentine's Day

We decided not to exchange any gifts for this Valentine's day to save money for our upcoming trip. But of course, we got something for each other. This happens all the time.

But that's not the funniest part. Apparently, we went to the same chocolate shop on the same day, at different time. We are assuming that the same lady sold the boxes to us as well.

Some of you know that I have an obsession with Neuhaus chocolates. It's an expensive obsession so I try to control it. Now we have two boxes of goodness!!!

Tortilleria Mexicana Los Hermanos

We saw Tortilleria Mexicana Los Hermanos on TV while back. One of Chris's favorite cuisines is Mexican and he has been complaining about a lack of real Mexican restaurants in New York. So when we heard about Tortilleria Mexicana Los Hermanos, we were very excited.

When we finally visited Tortilleria Mexicana Los Hermanos, it didn't disappoint.
Tacos were huge and they were $2 each.

We didn't talk very much because we were busy eating. Eating a taco and half made me very full. A lot of gringos know about this place now, so be prepared to wait for a seat.
