About Me / FAQs


i'm cindy and this is my blog about what's (food-relatedly) new in new york. here are some answers to some faqs (that i made up):

what inspired you to start this blog?
several things:
  • my husband and i have long talked about various ways to use our skills + creativity, and i thought i just needed to start doing something, even if it's small.
  • my dad said to me, "don't just go to work, go home, sleep, go to work..." now i can add "blog" somewhere into that sequence.
  • this article about asian-americans experiencing the "bitter undercurrent of Asian-American life [where] meritocracy comes to an abrupt end after graduation". it ends with "dare to be interesting."
  • i wrote a restaurant review to my friend and afterward thought to myself, i could keep doing this.

what's considered "new" in your blog?
anything that opened within the last 3 months from the date of my writing.
