We Tried The New Detroit-Style Pizza At Pizza Hut!
Since we’ve been spending a lot more time at home during the pandemic, I picked up a new hobby.
The Michael W Travels family really loves pizza so I decided it was time to learn to try to make pizza at home! Making pizza at home is no easy task and there are a lot of skills involved. It’s been a fun and tasty journey and I’m pretty happy with how it’s progressed.
Besides making primarily NY style pies, I’ve also starting working on making Detroit Style pizza! Detroit- style pizza is made in a pan and has delicious, caramelized crispy cheese around the edge. If you haven’t tried this style, I suggest you try to find a place that offers it! Continue reading We Tried The New Detroit-Style Pizza At Pizza Hut!
Visiting NYC’s The Hole To See Misaki Kawai’s Moko Moko Doki Doki
Earlier in the month I heard about a free art exhibition at The Hole in New York City with a really fun name.
The exhibition from Misaki Kawai, called Moko Moko Doki Doki didn’t only have a fun name, the art itself looked really bizarre, unique and interesting! I also felt that it would appeal to not only Kim and I, but also to our kids, 9 year-old Lucas and 4 year-old Theo.
I had planned to visit the exhibition before going for dinner at a place close by but I totally forgot about it. However, as luck would have it, we happened to walk past The Hole on the way to Momofuku Ko. I guess luck was on our side… Continue reading Visiting NYC’s The Hole To See Misaki Kawai’s Moko Moko Doki Doki

Food Review: Limited Time Shake Shack Korean- Style Menu
For quite some time, I’ve mentioned how Shake Shack is my favorite fast casual restaurant. Earlier in the month I wrote how, for a limited time they would be offering items from South Korean Shacks.
During our trip a few years back, we had a chance to dine at Shake Shack in South Korea. While the food was very good, it wasn’t much different than eating at a US location.
We recently gave the Shake Shack South Korea menu a try. Continue reading Food Review: Limited Time Shake Shack Korean- Style Menu
