November 12, 2013 Mad Hungry Woman 2 Comments

An impromptu decision to drive up to LA for lunch ended up here, at Plan Check! We got there early and snagged a great parking spot right outside. Funnily, I realized where I was after we had parked because I saw the Japanese restaurant (Bar Hayama) across the street where I attended a birthday party […]

Okura takes over Katsuya space in Laguna Beach

November 7, 2013 Mad Hungry Woman 1 Comment

We came to visit the new Okura Robata & Sushi restaurant which took over the Katsuya location in Laguna Beach. I was never a fan of Katsuya so I was curious about this new place. The restaurant’s received a slight face-lift from before but still maintains a lounge-y feel in the bar area. The restaurant’s chic […]

October 31, 2013 Mad Hungry Woman 27 Comments

I recently came to Encore Dinner Theatre for a production of Fiddler on the Roof. We came a couple of years ago for another show which was enjoyable, but the only thing I remembered about that time was that the musical was fun — even my son liked it — but the food was very […]

libations and bites in San Diego

I have been hearing talk about Polite Provisions for months now from various sources telling me how much I would love this place. Why I ask? Because it has fantastic cocktails they say. So finally, we decided to pay them a visit one afternoon and see what the fuss was all about. The exterior doesn’t do […]

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.
