December 20, 2012 Mad Hungry Woman 30 Comments

My friends and I visited Valley View Casino out in Escondido a little over a month ago. None of us are real gamblers so we didn’t actually hang out at the casino until later in the evening. When we arrived, we swiftly checked into our rooms to chill before embarking on our dining experience for […]

loving the dinner menu at Cafe 21

A few months ago, I had the pleasure of having brunch here and walked away with it etched clearly on my mind for months to come. I recently came back for dinner, not once, not twice, but THREE times and was equally impressed by Cafe 21‘s dinner menu and am now fully convinced that this […]

One of the highlights of my east coast trip was visiting Washington DC and staying at the Fairfax at Embassy Row. The landmark hotel has a history that spans over 75 years and was once the home of Al Gore. The luxury and opulence is highlighted in the service received from beginning to end. Each […]

a pampered Sunday brunch at Raya

No matter what the occasion is, Raya has always been a great joy to dine at. Call it the glorious view of the Pacific, call it the perfection of service, call it the delicious menu. No matter what you call it, the experience is always delightful. We came here for brunch several Sundays ago and […]

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.
