Massawa Restaurant Review

I recently at at Massawa in NYC. A friend mentioned that this restaurant had some good Ethiopian food and I was down to try it. I hadn’t had this cuisine before and from looking at YouTube videos and pictures online, it seemed like a different experience than what I’m used to. The restaurant was prettyContinue reading “Massawa Restaurant Review”

Violet Evergarden Movie Review

I opened Netflix to continue watching the Hometown Cha Cha Cha kdrama when I stumbled across the Violet Evergarden movie. It reminded me of my time at work in 2019 when my coworkers and I stayed after work to watch the Violet Evergarden TV show. The show was pretty emotional and I enjoyed watching herContinue reading “Violet Evergarden Movie Review”

FBoy Island Review

I thought that this show was pretty funny at first. The host and the contestants didn’t take themselves too seriously and it seemed like a parody of some other dating reality tv shows. However, it got more serious and dramatic throughout the season. One odd part of the show was the eliminated contestants were banishedContinue reading “FBoy Island Review”

Shang Chi Review

I recently watched Shang Chi in movie theaters. It was pretty solid. I didn’t have too many expectations going into the movie. I did read good things about it beforehand, but I felt as though some of the comments were simply because it was an American movie with Asian representation. While watching the movie, IContinue reading “Shang Chi Review”

Merry Wives – Shakespeare in the Park

I thought that this play was really funny. The casting was great, the modern adaption was done well. Some of the sound effects were chosen perfectly. It was helpful that I knew what the story was about before watching the play. One of the audience members behind me explained what the show was about rightContinue reading “Merry Wives – Shakespeare in the Park”

Space Jam: A New Legacy Review

Before watching the movie, I read some of the online reviews. There was a few positive reviews, but most of them were negative. As a result, I tried to have an open mind and no expectations when watching the movie. I thought the movie was perfectly fine. There was a relatively clear story line andContinue reading “Space Jam: A New Legacy Review”

Some good deals I took advantage of in NYC

I got a library card by showing proof of residence. That enabled me to get free books, ebooks, movies, and cds. The library card also qualified me to get CulturePass, which gives free tickets to attractions and museums across the city. I went to Shakespeare in the Park for multiple years. I also went toContinue reading “Some good deals I took advantage of in NYC”

Too Hot to Handle Season 2 Review

I thought that this show was great. I didn’t watch season 1, but season 2 had exactly what I was hoping for – attractive people, drama, and character development. One issue I had with Love Island was that there was no real goal of the show. Like the people were just there on an islandContinue reading “Too Hot to Handle Season 2 Review”

KFC Spicy Chicken Sandwich Review

I’ve been eating KFC with the family for a while. At a certain point in my life, it was a routine to get KFC after going to church on Sundays. I was so disappointed when I tasted the new KFC fries since it was so much worse than the potato wedges they served before. WhenContinue reading “KFC Spicy Chicken Sandwich Review”

Poaching an egg

I recently looked up an actual recipe for how to poach an egg since I was interested in making Eggs Benedict. I didn’t end up buying all the ingredients for an Eggs Benedict, but I did buy eggs so I decided to practice poaching them. I looked at Alton Brown’s recipe and it worked likeContinue reading “Poaching an egg”
