Providence — LA

December 16, 2016 Mad Hungry Woman Leave a Comment

The birthday celebrations this year are still ongoing, the latest being Michael Cimarusti’s Providence on Melrose Avenue. We have been wanting to check out lunch at Providence — the restaurant is only open for lunch on Fridays — for quite some time, and my birthday was the perfect excuse. The menu comprises a la carte as […]

seafood awaits at Long Beach waterfront dining + giveaway

December 2, 2016 Mad Hungry Woman 9 Comments

Gladstone’s has been a mainstay of the Long Beach waterfront, situated a mere stone’s throw away from the Aquarium of the Pacific. I’m usually wary of restaurants in a “touristy” area, which is why it’s taken me this long to visit. We arrive on a beautiful day, securing a table with a direct view of Long […]

Cesar’s Bistro — Long Beach

October 28, 2016 Mad Hungry Woman Leave a Comment

Tucked away in a non-descript plaza, Cesar’s Bistro is easily missed if you’re not mindfully looking for it. The restaurant, though small, is a sit-down, but offers walk-in and phone-in take-out for those on the go. The Latin-American menu boasts many familiar items, and several unbeknownst to me.

October 10, 2016 Mad Hungry Woman Leave a Comment

It isn’t every day that an owner of the restaurant will take the time to sit and chat with you, but on a recent visit to Buono Pizzeria in Long Beach, I was lucky to chance upon Terri Buono, who was more than eager to share stories about her family — namely her father Nicolaniello […]

Broken Spanish — downtown LA

September 2, 2016 Mad Hungry Woman Leave a Comment

After attending the Western Foodservice & Hospitality Expo, a small group of us decide to have dinner at Broken Spanish mainly because we’re hungry, but also, to wait out the traffic traveling back to Orange County. The restaurant is a five minute drive from the LA Convention Center, but I call ahead to reserve a […]

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.
