Lackluster re-visit to Bottega Louie

July 10, 2011 Mad Hungry Woman 1 Comment

It’s been a while since I was last at Bottega Louie — too long I might add. We were up in LA recently and were actually in the vicinity and decided to pop by for a late lunch/early dinner. I’ve always loved Bottega Louie’s dining room with its high ceilings and clean, minimalistic feel. Everyone […]

Say “kanpai” to a worthy OC izakaya

July 7, 2011 Mad Hungry Woman 4 Comments

I’ve never been a big fan of Honda-Ya preferring its sister Kappo-Honda whenever I am hankering for izakaya fare. So needless to say, when I found Meijiya in Costa Mesa, I was tickled, mainly because I didn’t know about it before — even though they’d been open about a year — but also because they […]

July 4, 2011 Mad Hungry Woman Leave a Comment

You know a coffee place is good when I don’t drink coffee and I love coming here. I came on opening day and enjoyed visiting with a bunch of friends — who ARE coffee drinkers — and we sampled a bunch of different coffees — well I did, from my friends’ cups. They had the […]

A little taste of Indonesia at Warung Pojok

July 1, 2011 Mad Hungry Woman 2 Comments

As far as I know, there is only one Indonesian restaurant in Orange County and having said that, Warung Pojok is more a take out/fast food joint rather than a restaurant. I first encountered this place a few years ago when they opened and was really excited about trying the food. I was sick of […]

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.
