The article points to various restaurants stipulating a farm-to-table menu, but in fact, is far fetched and often, untrue. This brings me to once again bring attention to The Ranch Restaurant & Saloon in Anaheim. This is possibly the […]

Padre — Long Beach

June 15, 2015 Mad Hungry Woman 3 Comments

I have a policy of not visiting a restaurant in its first month of opening but I broke it this weekend. Padre in Long Beach opened Saturday evening without pomp and circumstance.

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.
