August 15, 2013 Mad Hungry Woman 2 Comments

We visited Buddha’s Belly a few weekends ago, a restaurant I remember seeing time after time again when my BFF used to lived in Santa Monica. The restaurant is only a block away from the water and I remember always seeing it packed with people whenever we drove by. As we drove by it on […]

a taste of home at Pie Not

August 13, 2013 Mad Hungry Woman 1 Comment

Living in Australia, getting a sausage roll or a meat pie was always something uni (college) kids got after a night of drinking. My parents, who are immigrants, never got a taste for them, so I would grab them with my friends whenever we were in the city. It’s been years since I’ve had a […]

On a visit to San Diego recently, my friend Vivienne and I visited Meatball Cucina, a relatively new restaurant located within an office building in the downtown area. The decor and the feel of the interior was chic and modern, but I was intrigued by the menu and its name because it reminded me of The […]

Umami packed ramen at Rakiraki San Diego

August 1, 2013 Mad Hungry Woman 2 Comments

I was scrolling through Twitter one day and saw an entry about a ramen place serving tsukemen, but it was in San Diego. I love tsukemen, a ramen style noodle dish served with a dipping broth on the side. Very few places in OC serve this and I’m always looking for better ones to try. […]

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.
