This is my 500th post and it is befitting that I write about one of my favorites! It is no secret I love Veggie Grill. From the very first time I tried them six years ago, I have not lost my desire to eat this absolutely delicious vegetarian fare. Their latest location in Laguna Niguel […]

the ARC of rustic simplicity

March 28, 2013 Mad Hungry Woman 36 Comments

I’ve visited ARC several times now after its opening at SoCo’s The OC Mix. My son absolutely loves it and often asks if we can go back again and for me, I find the simple, yet rustic menu very appealing. After several visits, I feel I’ve tried enough of the menu to give a good rundown […]

Zimzala is pooch friendly too

San Diego Trails to a neighborhood eatery

December 11, 2012 Mad Hungry Woman 2 Comments

I love how San Diego is filled with little neighborhood eateries. Here’s one very apropos to its name tucked away in a strip mall in the San Carlos area. Trails doesn’t look like much from the outside, but upon entering, you’ll find a cute, modern interior definitely not expected. After a bit of research, I […]

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.
