comfort food after the holidays

January 10, 2020 Mad Hungry Woman Leave a Comment

The holidays always leads to overeating, and on days we need a break from it all, we like to eat congee. Many Chinese/Vietnamese eateries will serve congee, but there are only a handful of places where the congee is perfectly prepared, to the desired texture that I grew up with in Hong Kong. One of […]

Shanghailander Palace serves up legit childhood favorites

It’s been quite some time since I last had a stellar Shanghainese meal. We had some very pedestrian Shanghainese food this summer up in San Francisco, and there aren’t any good Shanghainese restaurants here in OC. Last weekend, my friend suggested we take a trip to the Rowland Heights area, and I was absolutely down […]

I can’t remember the last time I was up in San Gabriel Valley for a Chinese meal, but I know it’s been WAY too long. Over the weekend, we drove up to meet some friends we’ve not seen in a very long time, and to share a long overdue meal together. Noodle Harmony is a […]

Dough Zone — Seattle

You might ask “who goes to Seattle for xiao long bao?” — well, the answer is, “I do!” In fact, I had bookmarked Dough Zone months before my trip, so when my friends ask where we’re going for lunch, I say we are going to Seattle’s Chinatown. We arrive early, and just as well, because […]

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.
