Costa Mesa is fast becoming the foodie mecca of Orange County with restaurants popping up left, right and center every week or so.

Counterpoint San Diego is right on point

November 3, 2014 Mad Hungry Woman 2 Comments

It isn’t often I walk away from a meal that makes me feel so utterly happy inside.

Counterpoint in San Diego’s Golden Hill neighborhood has been in […]

The Republique of belly busting goodness

I’ve been wanting to visit Walter Manzke’s Republique ever since it opened. In fact, I wanted to visit the minute I found out about it, and that was a while ago when we were dining at Petty Cash and Chef Manzke stopped by our table for a minute to chat and told us about it […]

As the years fly by, that location soon becomes a vital part of my life, providing so many fulfilling memories for my friends […]

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.
