so-so sojourn at Sapphire

September 20, 2011 Mad Hungry Woman Leave a Comment

Austin’s been meaning to get me here for a while now and we finally make it to lunch with Priscilla and Selene. It was a beautiful day so we decided to sit outside underneath the big umbrellas to enjoy our meal instead, although the interior was rather inviting as well. Quite a few things caught […]

Love the haute spot but food is average

September 13, 2011 Mad Hungry Woman Leave a Comment

It’s been so many years since I last visited Haute Cakes Caffe and I needed a refresher visit. When I arrived, I remembered it right away — nothing had changed — and the cute patio was still there, as well as the communal table I love so much. We placed our orders and went to […]

Chinese breakfast at Four Seas wins my vote

July 20, 2011 Mad Hungry Woman Leave a Comment

My BFF recently moved to the area and it is so lucky that this place is right down the hill from her house. So when I last visited her, we dropped by Four Seas to grab some Taiwanese breakfast. The only person who speaks or reads the menu (it’s all in Chinese) was me, so […]

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 […]

Breakfast at Antoine’s Cafe wins over lunch

June 10, 2011 Mad Hungry Woman 4 Comments

It’s been a while since I last visited Antoine’s Cafe but when I entered its doors, nothing has changed. It is the same welcoming place I remembered. I think it is better to go during the week rather than the weekends because of the crowds who gather here, especially on a gorgeous day. The interior […]

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.
