>Taco Mesa — owned!

May 24, 2010 Mad Hungry Woman 2 Comments

> I’m not a fan of burritos — there I said it! But when I got to Taco Mesa and saw the lobster burrito (pictured) something inside screamed “get it”. I had read somewhere that this is what they are famous for and when I brought it up to my friend, he said “get it, […]

>Came here with a friend of mine to grab some lunch. I loved my fish taco and the carnitas is also, awfully good! The frijoles and arroz (beans and rice) were also very tasty! I thought the tamale was just okay, as was the enchilada and the taquito — I would stick to the carnitas […]

> The mojo here is a garlic sauce called mojo de ajo, commonly found in Mexican cuisine. I love camarones mojo de ajo, which are shrimps seared or grilled in a fabulous garlic sauce. I’m kinda addicted to this dish, but only when done well. Some places just can’t get the sear right. At Taco […]

>There’s nothing better than eating off a roach coach when you’re living in soCal. However, these moving restaurants usually hover in and around LA, and not in a city like Irvine. It was cool that this particular taco truck was brought to my attention since it makes 2 stops outside the Sprint building at 10.30am […]

> What a mistake it was that I stopped into La Salsa for a quick and much needed boost to my low blood sugar. I had to eat fast and this was right where I was. I didn’t want a Subway sandwich, or anything big like a meal. I just wanted something light, so there […]

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.
