Bottega Americano is beautiful, however, visiting during lunch has its pros and cons. Pros include being able to see every intricacy the decor has to offer. The cons? Not being able to taste everything the restaurant has to offer. I am in awe of the space and spend a little time wandering around while I wait […]

new spring/summer dishes at Fig & Olive

May 25, 2015 Mad Hungry Woman Leave a Comment

As the seasons change, so do menus at restaurants offering menus dictated by what’s available right now. At Fig & Olive, it is no different. On a recent trip there, we try some new menu items perfect for the warmer weather. Start with some cocktails such as The Fig & Olive ($12), an organic cucumber vodka with […]

eat AND shop at Stir Market

May 22, 2015 Mad Hungry Woman Leave a Comment

I’ve been seeing friends post photos from stirmarket ever since it opened. The fact that Jet Tila is part owner is also a major incentive to visit — Jet is the host of SoCal Restaurant Show, which I appear from time to time to talk about San Diego restaurants. It is essentially a market with […]

It is a beautiful day and we are driving south on I-5 freeway headed towards Fallbrook. We stop to visit some friends and enjoy some beautifully luscious avocados before making the short drive to Vista Valley Country Club, hidden within the hills of Vista, so much so you wouldn’t even know it is there. We drive […]

Leatherby’s ANNIE pre theater menu

May 15, 2015 Mad Hungry Woman Leave a Comment

Whenever we go to a show at Segerstrom Center for the Arts, we will most often than not, eat at Leatherby’s Cafe Rouge beforehand. Before attending a showing of ANNIE this week, we stopped by and dined on dishes Chef Ross Pangilinan creates especially for each show. I honestly believe you should visit Leatherby’s during the run […]

About Me

This blog is a journal of mostly my eating adventures, but also, other things I'm passionate about, including travel, the arts, and also, necessities to complete my life. Centered predominantly in and around Orange County, CA, some will extend to Los Angeles, San Diego and beyond. I am constantly searching for delicious food to eat and fun things to do, nothing is out of bounds. Sometimes it doesn't end well, but I can definitely say, it will always be an interesting journey.
