this brunch definitely TAPS my interest

May 17, 2012 Mad Hungry Woman 12 Comments

I’m not a huge fan of buffets because I can never eat a lot in one sitting. I get full very quickly and generally, I leave feeling like I didn’t get my money’s worth. So when I visited TAPS for its Sunday brunch buffet, I was surprised to find over 100 items among the choices […]

look to Panera Bread for a fast and tasty alternative

May 10, 2012 Mad Hungry Woman 10 Comments

With my busy schedule, fast casual restaurants like Panera Bread serves as a good stop no matter what time of day to grab something delicious and healthy — and QUICKLY! And if you have time to sit and enjoy your food on the premises, they offer free wi-fi, so you’ll see students studying there and […]

where’s the Umami?

May 8, 2012 Mad Hungry Woman 7 Comments

Normally I wouldn’t even bother with writing up a place I didn’t enjoy, however, I couldn’t pass this one over purely because EVERYONE seems to love it and sadly, I didn’t. The Umami Burger hype has stretched from Los Angeles down to Orange County and I finally jumped on the burger bandwagon and went to […]

Mick’s gourmet Karma Bar burgers

April 24, 2012 Mad Hungry Woman Leave a Comment

When I first saw Mick’s Karma Bar on Yelp, I was strangely curious because the name conjures up images of a weird spot decorated with ‘om’ symbols and Buddha statues, maybe even some crystals of sorts here and there. But then I read the reviews and they were of burgers which totally threw me off. […]

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.
