January 24, 2013 Mad Hungry Woman 1 Comment

The last time I was at Zimzala it was for a big party and the only thing I remembered was what a nice space it was in and how modern and chic it looked. Recently, I returned with friends for brunch and was happy to find that it was still as nice as I remembered […]

Avocado Cafe: when healthy is also tasty

January 21, 2013 Mad Hungry Woman 13 Comments

Back when I was writing for the OC Register, my friend Selene suggested we go check out Avocado Cafe in Newport Beach so I could write about it. The reason?

a Tommy Bahama style celebration

January 17, 2013 Mad Hungry Woman 1 Comment

I was in charge of organizing dinner for my friend’s birthday a few days ago. She didn’t know where to go and after several suggestions, I said “let’s just go to Tommy Bahama’s Bar & Grille“.

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.

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

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.
