Tavern on 2 tantalizes my tastebuds

July 7, 2014 Mad Hungry Woman Leave a Comment

If the name Frank De Loach has never crossed your ears before, you’re definitely missing out. This is an unconventional chef who thinks outside of the box, one who is not afraid to play with flavors and bring together ingredients some may not be familiar with. In short, not everyone get his food.  But for those who […]

a highly respectable menu at Fireside Tavern

May 19, 2014 Mad Hungry Woman Leave a Comment

I first experienced Fireside Tavern at its grand opening a few months ago. From the tidbits we sampled, I knew immediately that this new restaurant will be a winner. Why you might ask? Well, in my decades of experience, if the food you’re eating at a cocktail event, a wedding, or anything where food is […]

spring menu at A Restaurant + Mother’s Day brunch

May 5, 2014 Mad Hungry Woman Leave a Comment

Even though I posted about A Restaurant not so long ago, I wanted to showcase its new spring menu which is now available. To me, Jon Blackford is a chef who has all the talent in the world, is a crazy great cook and everyone needs to know that! I still can’t believe it when people tell me […]

Two years ago, I was introduced to Cafe 21 at Gaslamp and fell in love with it instantly. Since that initial visit, I can’t tell you how many times I’ve returned to it, each time with gratifying meals shared with friends and loved ones. So it was indeed an exciting day for me to visit Cafe […]

Michelin star dining right here in OC

March 10, 2014 Mad Hungry Woman Leave a Comment

I had no plans to write a post about this when I walked through the doors of The Hood Kitchen for lunch several weeks ago. After all, it wasn’t an actual restaurant experience and I thought I would just include it in my e-newsletter and call it a day. However, at the end of the meal, […]

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.
