Each year, I always start OC Restaurant Week off with a meal on the first day. There’s nothing better than supporting our local restaurants by visiting as many of these participating restaurants as possible. If you’ve been reading my posts through the years, you’ll know that one of my friends has a birthday around this […]

Starting with Los Angeles County, Dominique’s Kitchen in Redondo Beach has been winning us […]

December 26, 2014 Mad Hungry Woman Leave a Comment

There were so many new restaurant openings this year, way too many to name, and of course, not all of them were all that great. Here are five of my best new restaurants: each has stood out in its own way and I cannot wait to revisit them in 2015. My only Los Angeles inclusion for 2014 is […]

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.
