Austin’s been meaning to get me here for a while now and we finally make it to lunch with Priscilla and Selene. It was a beautiful day so we decided to sit outside underneath the big umbrellas to enjoy our meal instead, although the interior was rather inviting as well. Quite a few things caught […]

Prix fixe at Charlie Palmer

Sutha Thai Kitchen — when I don’t feel like cooking

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.
