spring menu at A Restaurant + Mother’s Day brunch

May 5, 2014 Mad Hungry Woman Leave a Comment

The Sliding Door is a must try!

Bestia is well worth the drive to LA for

We have been waiting to dine at Ink for as long as it’s been open. Again, we’re so late to the game but the restaurant is still a popular one and the restaurant is packed and bustling on the night of our visit. Our server was really awesome and I must preface by saying, the […]

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.
