Ruby Chow’s

Although the ambiance of Ruby Chow’s is what lured me in, the food will keep me coming again and again. An asian fusion restaurant, Ruby Chow’s passes the vibe check. The decor is stunning with red draped curtains in the entrance way and neon lights sprinkled about. Located in the main sitting room is a bar and seating. Upstairs provides a lounge, with couches and more of an open floor plan. The food is delicious. The menu contains steamed buns and offers small plate options for sharing as well as a large plate option. What are my recommendations? Try the Basil Chicken and the large plate Bo Ne, paired with an Ping’s O.F. While we tried several menu items these were the favorite by far.

Buena Vida Tapas & Sol

Eclipse di Luna and Loca Luna have been my go to tapas restaurants for years and rightly so. Since finding Buena Vida it has quickly became my go to tapas restaurants, I have visited this place quite a bit and I am never disappointed. From the Crispy Pimenton Chicken to the Patatas Bravas, it is all mouthwatering. Let’s not forget the Brunch menu, the Flan French Toast is so good and their Steak and Huevos are making my stomach growl just thinking about.

Hawkers has become my friends and I go to spot. Located along the beltline, Hawkers restaurant offers Asian Street Food, that is fresh and always hot. I have literally visited this place four times over a couple of months, that’s just how great it is. Our favorite items are the Seoul Hot Chicken Baos, Korean Chicken Tenders, Chicken Lo Mein and the Five Spice Green Beans. Our first time going here we order just about the entire menu because everything looked so good. The items are small plates to be prepared to share.
