Mokkoji: a gourmet shabu experience

July 24, 2012 Mad Hungry Woman 5 Comments

It’s summer and I have my son every day which means an endless amount of thinking about lunch and what to feed him. I love it when he suggests something he wants to eat and last week, he wanted to go to shabu shabu (again!) and I wanted to go someplace we haven’t been before. […]

meat, glorious meat at Agora Churrascaria

June 21, 2012 Mad Hungry Woman 19 Comments

From my last post of a vegetarian cafe to a meat-filled debauchery. If you’ve never had churrascaria, or, Brazilian barbecue, then you’re missing out. It is one of those things which even if you’re not a big meat eater will find to be a fun experience. It is also great for a big party because […]

Mick’s gourmet Karma Bar burgers

April 24, 2012 Mad Hungry Woman Leave a Comment

Paul Martin’s Monday 3-Course Fried Chicken Dinner ($22) will satisfy any appetite because you definitely will not leave hungry. I’m a fan of fried chicken, but it’s hard to find […]

LUCCA Cafe launches delicious Happy Hour menu

February 16, 2012 Mad Hungry Woman 23 Comments

I always forget LUCCA Cafe is just down the road from me, but the launch of its happy hour menu is now embedded on my brain, especially when I’m craving some delicious small bites along with a glass or two of the great wines they have on offer. The menu is extensive and the small […]

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.
