>Pizzeria Ortica

December 1, 2010 Mad Hungry Woman 4 Comments

>**An abridged version of this can be found at the OC Register’s Food Frenzy** Eating at Pizzeria Ortica reminds me of eating in those wonderful restaurants in New York City, except the weather is better and people are tanner. I love the elongated dining room, together with the open wood fire kitchen bring together a […]

Costa Mesa CA, Italian

>Tutto Famiglia — value for money family style Italian

October 27, 2010 Mad Hungry Woman 8 Comments

> **Version of article also in OC Register** With the crazy amount of restaurants dotted around Orange County, it is hard to really pinpoint where to go when those crazy cravings hit. Some days, I want to stay close to home, I want value for money, I want good service but most of all I […]

>ECCO — the new kid shows huge promise

September 27, 2010 Mad Hungry Woman 2 Comments

>Mio Babbo’s — your average American style Italian

>What can I say about Mio Babbo’s except for the fact that it’s a quaint little restaurant and if you go, don’t expect to be overwhelmed — it’s not THAT kind of place. My friend had wanted to go to Mio Babbo’s for quite some time now due to the fact that it was a […]

Italian, Los Angeles CA

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.
