1. Kintaro Ramen Noodle
Kintaro was the first restaurant in Vancouver whose food I was really pleased with. Upon first glance, I could see a long line out the door and down the street. (Mind you, this could partially be because the entire place is quite small and probably…More »
2. M&S Simply Food
London SW11 6
UK
+44 20 7828 9502
Category:
Corner Shops
Neighbourhood: Clapham Junction
I walked out of the train station and made my pick here @ Simply Food. Sure, there are a lot of different places to eat inside (most of which are "fast", and by fast, I mean fried or unhealthy in some way), but I wanted to make it to my hostel…More »
3. Old Bridge
00192 Roma
Italy
+39 06 45599961
Category:
Ice Cream & Frozen Yoghurt
Neighbourhoods: Citta' del Vaticano, Prati
There's a reason for the steady and ever-present line around the corner for this gelateria. Gelato here is fresh, inexpensive, and the flavors change daily. The guys who work here can understand English, but when in Rome, make an effort to speak;…More »
4. Fontana di Trevi
00187 Roma
Italy
Categories:
Landmarks & Historical Buildings,
Local Flavour
Neighbourhood: Centro Storico
Fontana di Trevi is a beautiful but touristy attraction, so expect to see men dressed up in Roman warrior garb for pictures and lots of peddlers with roses, children's toys circling and selling their wares.
It's extremely packed during daytime; the…More »
5. The Venetian
Las Vegas, NV 89109
(702) 414-1000
Open for 24 hours?! that means I can be hungry all night long!
I expected it to be just like another late night cafe in Vegas - you know, the kind that serves pizza, hot dogs, and bagels all night long. Had no idea that it was the same parent…More »
6. Globetrotter Inns, London
London W6 0TU
UK
+44 20 8746 3112
Category:
Hostels
Neighbourhoods: Hammersmith, Ravenscourt Park
Rates always change depending on the time of year, so I can't tell you much about the expenses.
As far as the actual hostel itself, I must say this is one of the best places I've stayed. It's clean and comfortable. Each bed has a curtain for your…More »

Category:
Hostels
Neighbourhoods: Kensington, South Kensington
Bleh. Really?
AK was really hard to find. I had to walk up and down the street three times before I realized it was an obscure door next to a restaurant.
The location was good; it wasn't too far from the Tube.
The room wasn't beautiful, but it served…More »
8. Risque de Paris
Las Vegas, NV 89109
(702) 946-4589
Category:
Dance Clubs
Neighbourhood: The Strip
We came here because we were staying in Bally's and we had free passes. We didn't know at the time that hotel guests get in free anyway.
Well, we got all dressed up and went inside, only to leave 5 minutes later. This place reminded me of a high…More »
9. Mario's Bohemian Cigar Store Cafe
San Francisco, CA 94133
(415) 362-0536
Categories:
Italian,
Sandwiches,
Bars
Neighbourhood: North Beach/Telegraph Hill
On my last day in SF, we were supposed to eat at Sotto Mare, but it was closed, so we found Mario's, which was said to be good.
Mario's really looks like a small bar or cafe; there is enough seating for maybe 20 people in the bar, and it's slightly…More »
10. Tao Nightclub
Las Vegas, NV 89109
(702) 388-8338
Categories:
Dance Clubs,
Lounges
Neighbourhood: The Strip
This club is always happening.
Both times I've come here, there were lines out the door. Even at midnight, the lines were still around the corners. I think the cover is $20 but we got in free. Yay for being ladies.
Tao plays great music - 80's,…More »
11. North Beach Pizza
NB Pizza... we woulda gone to NB, but it was too far to walk and we didn't know if we'd make it without biuying another bus pass. Yes, we're poor.
Anyway, it was a good pizza, but overpriced! Hellew - $16 for a small? Is it made of gold? $16 gold?…More »
12. Ferrara Bakery & Cafe
New York, NY 10013
(212) 226-6150
We made a stop at Ferrara's outdoor vending counter during San Gennaro's feast, and bought a Cannoli. $4? Not quite a bargain, as it wasn't too hefty a pastry; in addition the shell was a bit stale and the ricotta a bit congealed at the ends. Not…More »
13. Pho Ai My
Toronto, ON M5T 2E2
Canada
(416) 849-3631
Category:
Vietnamese
Neighbourhoods: Alexandra Park, Chinatown, Downtown Core
This pho restaurant actually looks like a boutique, what with it's minimalist white theme and wrought iron flowers to decorate.
All but 1 table was occupied when we sat down in the front window-table, which was hot because there weren't any shades or…More »
14. Angkor Borei Restaurant
San Francisco, CA 94110
(415) 550-8417
Category:
Cambodian
Neighbourhood: Bernal Heights
Angkor Borei was my first Cambodian Restaurant.
Considering I haven't had much Khmer food before, I coudln't tell you if it was authentic or not. I can only say that I thoroughly enjoyed their barbequed chicken and stir fried veggies. Fresh! As…More »
15. Punch & Judy
I came here at the suggestion of a friend who lived here for a while.
Well, I didn't know that you don't get seated at a pub. Instead, you just grab a table yourself. So I waited like a dumbass for someone to notice and seat me. That never happened,…More »
16. Mr Wu - CLOSED
London WC2H 7AT
UK
+44 20 7839 6669
Category:
Chinese
Neighbourhoods: St James's, Leicester Square
For about 6 pounds, you get a buffet with all the typical stereotype Chinese foods. Beef and Broccoli. Sweet and sour pork. Hot and sour soup. Chop Suey. Rice. Chow Mein.
O, Mr. Wu. You put me to shame. This is NOT Chinese food, despite the…More »
17. Anchor Bar
I made it a point to map this on our route to Niagara Falls, and I'm glad we went :)
The place is pretty spacious; bigger than I thought. We were seated quickly in the room on the left. Our waitress was quick enough to take our order of hot wings,…More »
18. Les Sans Culottes
Dear Les Sans Culottes,
Wow, you are very overrated.
I. Had. A. Horrible. Experience.
First, I don't like this rule: "You can't sit at the table and eat the community appetizers unless you order an entree, or pay $16.50".
So you give me a basket of…More »
19. Pin Kaow 2
We were meeting a friend here for lunch and wow, i didn't know it was a chain! Apparently, they're almost all on Rainbow.
So is this Vegas' Noodle World? I think so.

20. STRIPSTEAK
Las Vegas, NV 89119
(702) 632-7414
Category:
Steakhouses
Neighbourhood: The Strip
My first fancy schmancy meal in Vegas that wasn't a buffet!
It's near all the other fancy restaurants in Mandalay Bay. The entrance is very open, glass windows that extend to the roof and you can see the whole restaurant just standing out side.

21. Elephant Walk
(sigh) How did Elephant Walk get such high ratings?
A small group of us went with a restaurant cert because we'd read such fantastic reviews about the place. "Cambodian cuisine" was a key reason why we came here, too.
We made reservations and were…More »
22. All India Cafe
This is probably the 3rd time I've tried Indian food in my life.
We stopped by to have a quick dinner before heading back to LA.
Overall, I'll say it wasn't a bad experience at all.
The facility is generally clean and well-deco'd; some Indian dancey…More »
23. Modern Pastry Shop
Boston, MA 02113
(617) 523-3783
Categories:
Bakeries,
Coffee & Tea,

Neighbourhood: North End
Wow, long ass line on a Saturday night.
MMM for chocolate/soft torrone and cannoli!
Torroni still good one long flight and a few days later :)
24. BoltBus
For about $20 (likely less!), you can move from one major city to another.
We took 2 rides by bolt; from DC to Manhattan, and Manhattan to Boston. Both were pleasant experiences.
The seats recline; the bus is well-ventilated; you have outlets to…More »

Categories:
Mexican,
Vegetarian,
Breakfast & Brunch
Neighbourhood: Kensington-Cedar Cottage
Take my review with this grain of salt: I'm from East L.A. area and we've got authentic Mexican food aplenty here.
T'was our first night in Vancouver and we were looking for a restaurant. We walked down The Drive and most of the businesses were…More »
26. La Tasca
Washington, DC 20001
(202) 347-9190
Categories:
Spanish,
Tapas Bars
Neighbourhood: Chinatown
Silly me; I didn't yelp a place to eat before I left! So, one windy night, we strolled into La Tasca after not finding anything else that seemed worth trying around the area. It didn't hurt that this place was packed on a Friday night.
The room was…More »
27. Bleecker Street Pizza
Apparently, this is the best pizza in NY, says Food Network. Well, we didn't know before we came; i just felt like pizza and it was still open so in we went.
It's a small place; there are a few tables and chairs inside and outside, but it's not a…More »
28. Lombardi's Pizza
How historical! Incidentally, this is the first pizzeria in the US.
I read in a Lonely Planet guide that this was the oldest pizzeria in the city. I concluded that if it's the oldest, there must be something really great about since it's still…More »
29. Luzzo's
I came across Luzzo's on Yelp; it had so many rave reviews, I couldn't resist.
Sure enough, when we arrived, the entire restaurant was packed. Not a single table open, EXCEPT the one in the front, right by the bar; we took it. While we waited for…More »
30. Golden Gate Bakery
My brother said this place is known for their egg tarts and macaroons.
Boy are they! I've never had a macaroon like this before! Crisp and chewy on the outside and thruout! Very coconutty! Good, even a few days later.
The custard in the egg tart,…More »
31. Alaska Airlines/Horizon Air
I flew Alaska Air from Vancouver back to LAX.
The staff at check in was friendly and got my check-in done pretty quickly. Security was no problem, though apparently, they check your fingers at YVR airport now - that's new to me.
For a flight less…More »
32. Dolores Park
She said there's always a sunny patch right over this park...
Who was she? Who knows her name... I can't remember! Some chick we met in line at Ike's. Well, she was right.
It was nice and sunny on the city-centered grassy knoll they call Dolores…More »
33. Grand View Park
Grand View Park is perfect if you're looking for a panorama of San Francisco.
Up many thigh-busting flights of stairs and a semi-steep hill of loose sand and dirt, over a few makeshift-ladder rungs of old tree roots sits a small bench that, when sat…More »
34. Sonoma Plaza
I don't really know how we ended up here, but whilst exploring Sonoma, we came across this Plaza and around it were - O wait - that's right!
-- We were trying to find points of interest using the Navi and lady told us that one was a cheese factory,…More »
35. Washington Square Park
Somehow always end up here in the late afternoon, when it's not dark yet, but already too cold to take off my sweater. It's a nice patch of grass with bus stop along the southwest side.
Lots of off-leash dogs here, roaming free and bullying one…More »

WHEEEEEEEEEEEEEEE!

I remember my dad driving (stick!) up this street when I was a chunk younger. We were so damn terrified that we were going to hit the car behind us!
10 years later, I finally got to drive down myself...

(415) 398-3555
Well, hello...
I remember you from the first time I laid eyes on you.
You were so hot,
so shiny,
oiled up,
and just out of the oven.
I couldn't wait to eat you.
Sadly, we had to walk away - we had other dinner plans that night.
But hark! is that the…More »
38. Sonoma Cheese Factory
Mmm, CHEESE! what's a tourist to do?
Sample it, of course :)
This shop has so many cheeses to sample without any one standing over you and supervising your sampling. I liked the Habanero and white cheddar. Use one toothpick per cube of cheese, they…More »
39. Chouchou
Hooray, ChouChou does accept http://restaurant.com certs :)
We went on a Saturday night for a nice dinner. it was a snazzy lookin' joint - small, quaint, loungey music, and - - no more room for us downstairs! :( So we said yes, we'd move upstairs.

40. Stansted Airport
I often ended up at Stansted Airport when I used http://Ryanair.com - talk about a cheap flight! I flew from London back to Rome for like, 1 Euro penny... anyway, I believe I got there via train, which took less than an hour to travel.
So after…More »
