February 18, 2014 Mad Hungry Woman 2 Comments

I’ve been to A Restaurant many times in the past, but always during dinner. The restaurant is so dimly lit I’ve never been happy with the library of photos I’ve acquired so I’ve never written about it. Therefore, it was incredibly lucky that Chef Jon Blackford agreed to indulge me in my request to visit […]

Bonefish Grill opens in Tustin

December 24, 2013 Mad Hungry Woman Leave a Comment

I was invited to a preview of Bonefish Grill months ago and returned again because what little I tasted was only a teaser and I wanted to try more before giving a verdict. Although the restaurant is part of a chain out of Florida, the restaurant does not have a chain feel to it. In fact, […]

a long awaited visit to Tar & Roses

December 17, 2013 Mad Hungry Woman 2 Comments

It took a while for me to post this, another birthday celebration, this time with my closest friends, at Tar & Roses, a restaurant I was invited to try when they first opened, but never had time to visit. Now, almost two years of opening, it was still on our list-to-try, so a reservation was […]

Although we visit The Capital Grille many times a year, I haven’t written anything about them in a while. My last visit here for lunch with my girl friends prompted me to post something about some of the new items on their “Plates” menu. The “Plates” menu is a very reasonable lunch-time offering with three items […]

very hit and miss at Hopscotch

October 15, 2013 Mad Hungry Woman 1 Comment

I’ve been wanting to visit Hopscotch for months and months now, but whenever my friends have been, I’ve been busy and I thought I’d never make it here! The Hungry Dogg and I had planned on going to a late lunch this particular day, but the place we were going to wasn’t open, so we […]

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.
