Exploring the streets of New York City is one of my favorite things to do. Looking for new discoveries or going to recommended ones, I never stop. This is not a traditional food blog. I don't focus on restaurant reviews, or cooking tips; but I find specific items that you absolutely must try. Whether it be a cranberry donut or the best cappuccino. The focus isn't on the usual, but the cheap, the best, and the hidden.

I am always looking for new places to go! Send me a tweet, or leave me a tip of your favorite place or find in the comments!

The best cupcakes in Manhattan. That won’t start a debate, but a fight. So this post is just one of the best cupcakes you can find in this amazing city. ChikaLicious Dessert Bar is known by many, but not known by even more. This tiny shop is fairly hidden, and if you aren’t specifically searching for it, probably won’t find it. The cupcakes are in a display case on the counter and they almost look fake; kind of like plastic. Make no mistake this will be one of the best cupcakes you will ever have. Go for the s’mores cupcake. Regular cupcakes like red velvet are $1.75, and premium-filled cupcakes like s’mores are $2.50.

Another one of the best, found.

Additional finds: The other cupcake flavors. The man behind the counter knows which ones are best if you ask him. I’ve heard the banana cupcake is amazing (via @multisync)
