2145 — Costa Mesa

February 8, 2019 Mad Hungry Woman 1 Comment

Every week, I make a drive to Costa Mesa, to The Water Brewery, to pick up water. On the way, I pass by 2145, a restaurant my son has visited several times, and wants me to try. We arrive early for lunch, and are the first ones there. I pick a seat where I think […]

Pickled Monk — Fullerton (part 2)

February 1, 2019 Mad Hungry Woman Leave a Comment

The second part of my Pickled Monk review focuses on its newly anointed brunch menu offered on weekends (along with their regular menu). If you’ve read part one, the menu is solid, and undoubtedly so, from the creative mind of Chef David Fune. The brunch menu features some great choices for everyone, with modern takes […]

Noodle Harmony is worth driving to San Gabriel Valley for

January 25, 2019 Mad Hungry Woman 2 Comments

I can’t remember the last time I was up in San Gabriel Valley for a Chinese meal, but I know it’s been WAY too long. Over the weekend, we drove up to meet some friends we’ve not seen in a very long time, and to share a long overdue meal together. Noodle Harmony is a […]

Pickled Monk — Fullerton (part 1)

January 18, 2019 Mad Hungry Woman 2 Comments

In recent years, downtown Fullerton has been quietly adding notable restaurants, bars, and anything in between. I don’t get to Fullerton much, simply because it isn’t close to me, and battling the 5 and 57 freeways isn’t something I enjoy doing on a weeknight. Recently, I visited Pickled Monk to try its regular, as well […]

fried chicken + grits at Roscoe’s Long Beach

January 11, 2019 Mad Hungry Woman 2 Comments

I love fried chicken, but I don’t love all fried chicken. I love Popeye’s but detest KFC. These days, there are plenty of restaurants that make fabulous fried chicken, but I do love Roscoe’s from time to time. Once a year (maybe two) we will drive to Long Beach and indulge in some fried chicken. […]

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.
