As Mr Terlato says, “Chinese food is difficult to pair with wines, and we are here, together, to taste and decide which […]

Phantom of the Opera theater menu at Leatherby’s Cafe Rouge

Last week, my BFF and I attend a performance of Phantom of the Opera at Segerstrom Center of the Arts and eat at Leatherby’s Cafe Rouge beforehand. It is her first time here so I want her to try as many things across the board. The prix fixe theater menu (3 courses/$45) is always the […]

a stellar family-run Vietnamese eatery

August 7, 2015 Mad Hungry Woman 2 Comments

casual fine dining at Oak Grill

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.
