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 […]

waterfront dining at Sea 180º Coastal Tavern

March 13, 2014 Mad Hungry Woman 2 Comments

I met a new friend at the end of last year, at a holiday party, and we had been trying to organize a meal together. A new restaurant, Sea 180º Coastal Tavern, was suggested and I made my way down to San Diego to find al fresco dining at its best, right on the beach! […]

Last week, I gushed over the opening of Whole Foods Newport Beach. The Tustin location sports a wine bar, so how to up the ante but to put a gastropub inside the newest Whole Foods Market in Newport Beach. Back Bay Tavern seats 150 with a rotating selection of craft beers on tap, plus wine and […]

a hot new gastropub named Simmzy’s

May 31, 2012 Mad Hungry Woman 34 Comments

If you’re looking for a new gem of a place to dine in, then look no further than Simmzy’s, a very sexy gastropub which opened recently in Belmont Shore. The restaurant is beautifully designed and has that open-patio feel about it especially if you’re sitting street-side and the windows are open. An impressive array of […]

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.
