We recently drove up to the San Gabriel Valley to have brunch with some friends. This isn’t your typical brunch, but rather, a modern Taiwanese style cafe which serves an array of elevated dishes. I love Cucumber Salad ($5.50) and make it often at home. Here, Yao Cheng Farms organic cucumbers are smashed and tossed […]

Fermentation Farm is a force to be reckoned with

July 2, 2021 Mad Hungry Woman Leave a Comment

Fermentation Farm in Costa Mesa is fast becoming one of my favorite spots for both its innovative and creative menu, as well as its well-stocked market filled with an array of fermented goods, stocks and broths, and other healthful, ready-made items for home use. What this past year has taught me is that taking care […]

The Hideaway is the best kept secret in Long Beach

June 28, 2021 Mad Hungry Woman Leave a Comment

The Hideaway in Long Beach is 100% true to its name. The atmosphere is relaxed, its entrance leads to the bar, with a small dining room to the right. Though unassuming, do not for one moment think that it’s just a plain ole steakhouse — it is not! This little hidden gem has some seriously solid […]

June 11, 2021 Mad Hungry Woman Leave a Comment

It’s been a minute since my last visit to Panxa Cocina — more than six years to be exact. The restaurant has since expanded with an outdoor patio, which is absolutely perfect for the current weather, as we move into the summer months. The restaurant is back, open for both lunch and dinner, featuring New […]

Dun Huang is a delightful addition to Irvine dining

I was hankering for some place new to try, and after a quick search on Yelp, we found Dun Huang, a northwestern Chinese restaurant that has taken over the old Chef Hung’s spot at Diamond Jamboree. When we arrived, I contemplated getting take out, but then, I saw how spaced-out the tables were, and there […]

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.
