Last week, I attended a fun dinner up in Hermosa Beach where six chefs gathered to prepare a meal, together! The venue was Abigale’s, and the event, Kitchen Takeover, and takeover they did. The restaurant was sold out for the night and I got a peek inside the kitchen where the six chefs had to […]

a Tommy Bahama style celebration

I was in charge of organizing dinner for my friend’s birthday a few days ago. She didn’t know where to go and after several suggestions, I said “let’s just go to Tommy Bahama’s Bar & Grille“.

enamored with dinners at Anepalco’s Cafe

September 13, 2012 Mad Hungry Woman 28 Comments

I’m always shocked when people tell me they’ve never heard of Anepalco’s Cafe, or that they’ve never been there. SERIOUSLY? The BEST chilaquiles in Orange County and beyond and you’ve never been?

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.
