Plancha Latin Kitchen at Long Beach Exchange

December 6, 2019 Mad Hungry Woman 2 Comments

Plancha Latin Kitchen has opened at Long Beach Exchange and the menu is a solid offering featuring dishes from many countries. Diners pick from a list of available ingredients to create their own bowls, and there is a nice array of  a la carte appetizers and dishes, should you choose to go that route. Start […]

Shanghailander Palace serves up legit childhood favorites

It’s been quite some time since I last had a stellar Shanghainese meal. We had some very pedestrian Shanghainese food this summer up in San Francisco, and there aren’t any good Shanghainese restaurants here in OC. Last weekend, my friend suggested we take a trip to the Rowland Heights area, and I was absolutely down […]

When I asked my friend if she’d like to join me at the Le Creuset Factory to Table event in Santa Monica several weeks ago, she asked if we could have lunch before coming home. When have I said no to good food? She’d had Forma, an Italian eatery featuring pasta that’s been tossed in […]

Gaucho Grill Argentine Steakhouse

The original Gaucho Grills are long gone, however, Kirk and his business partner, Adrian Amosa, have […]

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.
