Checking out the Queens Night Market

Checking out the Queens Night Market

I’ve never been to Taiwan, but thanks to Facebook, Instagram and YouTube, I’ve been able to get a feel for what Taiwan’s famous night markets are known for. Earlier this year, ex-lawyer John Wang embarked on a journey to bring a slice of Taiwan’s famous night market life to Flushing, […]

Sugar Overload at Patisserie Sadaharu Aoki

Sugar Overload at Patisserie Sadaharu Aoki

As much as my teeth love sugar as evidence by my 30+ cavities, I’m not that big on desserts. I gorge on candy, but not so much desserts and pastries. When I heard that Japan has one of the top bakeries in the world, it wasn’t on my to-do list, […]

I know Genki Sushi, there was one in Hawaii, and I’ve been there a few times. “Conveyor Belt Sushi” right? Genki Sushi in Hawaii and Tokyo are very different things. In Hawaii, there is a conveyor belt where you grab what you want and there is a waiter that gets […]

At Dapper Guide, we live to eat. We also imbibe a bit here and there. It was a natural progression for us to try our hand at cooking and pairing dishes. On Saturday, we made a trip to Union Square’s Greenmarket to pick up the latest seasonal foods. We saw […]

Sixpoint Resin IIPA Brewing Kit

Sixpoint Resin IIPA Brewing Kit

Craft a Brew and Sixpoint Brewery collaborated to put together a DIY homebrewer’s kit for Sixpoint’s Resin Imperial IPA. This is pretty awesome since a great brewery is giving consumers an inside look at what they do. We’ve seen beer kits with clone beers from popular breweries, but not many […]

Rebuild Pommes Frites (New York)

Rebuild Pommes Frites (New York)

Pommes Frites is a New York staple and for nearly 20 years, they’ve been serving some of the most exciting frites and dipping sauces. This Belgium inspired restaurant makes just one great thing, frites along with many different dipping sauces. Some of my favorite flavors are: sweet mango chutney, wasabi, […]

Whiskey Bullets by Sip Dark

Whiskey Bullets by Sip Dark

Using whiskey stones to keep your booze chilled is a great way to prevent it from getting diluted as would happen with ice. But stones look so boooring. Not enough machismo. More guns, more pew pew pew, so to speak. Enter Sip Dark’s Whiskey bullet. These stainless steel bullets work […]

Fred Water Flask

Fred Water Flask

We know how important it is to drink water, but if you’re on the go and without a bag, holding a water bottle is annoying. Have a water bottle that fits comfortably in our pocket is a no brainer, but we haven’t seen one we like until now. Fred Water […]
