a little bit of San Francisco in RSM

January 7, 2013 Mad Hungry Woman 18 Comments

I’m still trying to catch up after the holidays and it’s not been easy disciplining myself to buckle down and start writing. One of the restaurants that’s long past due for a review is Embarcadero in Rancho Santa Margarita. Now, everyone I’ve mentioned this place to has been responding with “huh? where? what?” Yes, Rancho […]

Happy 2013 and a re-introduction to something I thought I disliked

January 1, 2013 Mad Hungry Woman 4 Comments

New year’s day is just as good as any other to tell you about my recent foray into trying, once again, something I’d for years decided I didn’t particularly care for. I was down in San Diego recently and after visiting the farmers market, my friends wanted Mexican food, so, I pulled out my trusty […]

a farewell to 2012 with a year-end round-up

December 27, 2012 Mad Hungry Woman 7 Comments

This year has flown by and now we are at my last post of 2012. Like last year, I end with a run-down of my 10 most memorable restaurants/meals of the last 12 months. On my list are two San Diego restaurants and another, which has made my list two years in a row. Thank […]

Pitfire offers artisan pizza and more

I admit, I’m kind of a pizza snob. Frankly, there are only a few places I’d eat pizza at and Orange County isn’t by any means the epicenter of great pizzerias. This is why, when I tried the pizzas at the newly opened Pitfire in Costa Mesa, I was really impressed by how cool the […]

Valley View offers a nearby getaway with surprisingly good food

December 20, 2012 Mad Hungry Woman 30 Comments

My friends and I visited Valley View Casino out in Escondido a little over a month ago. None of us are real gamblers so we didn’t actually hang out at the casino until later in the evening. When we arrived, we swiftly checked into our rooms to chill before embarking on our dining experience for […]

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.
