October 9, 2018 Mad Hungry Woman Leave a Comment

Chef Craig Strong is a name that is immediately recognized by those who are familiar with OC’s fine dining. Formerly at The Montage, Chef Strong recently left the resort and has opened Ocean at Main in downtown Laguna Beach. We stopped by for lunch, when the natural light is at its peak, beaming through the […]

new fall offerings at Lazy Dog

October 5, 2018 Mad Hungry Woman Leave a Comment

I’m not sure why I always forget about Lazy Dog Restaurant — the last time I was there, it was still “cafe”. It has been rather long since I last visited, and if memory serves me correctly, I enjoyed my meal there. Several weeks ago, I was invited to try some of the new fall […]

I recently had dinner with my son at Tabu Shabu. I’ll have to admit, it has been a very long time since my last visit, but it’s good to see that they are still busy, and that people are enjoying shabu even when the weather is warm. The best part of Tabu Shabu is how […]

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.
