Miaoka Cat Cafe – Small but cute cats

Dann and I both really like going to cat cafes. We have gone to quite a few, in a few different countries, so we always keep our eye out for little cats in windows. While walking back to our hotel from a tourist stop, we spotted a cat in a window, which turned out to be a cat cafe! Miaoka Cat Cafe was quiet when we went in, as we came in at a strange time for a Monday I think, and so we had the place to ourselves.

Takumi Ramen Kitchen – Ramen Delight

When meeting up with a few friends in Milan, our friend Husky said “do you want to try the best Ramen of your life?” and, curious, Dann and I headed there. Sadly, they were heading off to the airport, but we were excited to try out what could be the best ramen ever. When we arrived at Takumi Ramen Kitchen, the atmosphere was fantastic. The internal decorations were cute, the waitress was nice, and we were excited to take on some lovely food.

Eating Italian Food at Sophia Loren Restaurant

Is it smart to get Italian food right near the Doumo in Milan? Probably not. It’s most likely going to be more expensive than anywhere else, and it might not even taste that good. With that in mind, we did really want to have a more traditional lunch and didn’t want to spend a lot of time walking, so we went to Sophia Loren Restaurant. Sophia Loren is a film star, something I didn’t realize until we were seated and I read the menu, which has a bunch of text about how she wanted to open an Italian restaurant because she loves food. But, it’s really the taste of the food that matters.

Lunch out at Belle Vie Cafe

Dann and I wanted to go out to lunch, so we decided to check out Belle Vie Cafe, which is right by the local train station! Belle Vie Cafe has a breakfast menu with tons of options, as well as sandwiches, burgers, a small kids menu and a handful of things under the ‘mains’ section as well. Dann and I were looking for a smaller lunch, so Dann went for a breakfast, I went for a mains, and we got some drinks and mozzarella sticks as well.

Dinner at The Brickhouse Bar and Grill with my uncle!

While in San Francisco, we got stuck for a few extra days, which was a whole ordeal. But, due to this extra time, Dann and I actually got to meet up with my uncle Bekket and his partner, for a meal out. Bekket picked The Brickhouse Bar and Grill primarily because the food looked good and it was dog friendly, as they brought their little dog. The place itself was very small-town-bar-and-grill feeling, with smaller-sized booths, sports on TV, and lots of decorations.
