Berlin Bistro is a breath of fresh air

There have been trips overseas, within the continental USA, and right here in southern California. To the north and south are LA and San Diego and LA, so easily accessible to us. […]

W Cafe is a quaint addition to Newport Beach

Last week, I met my girlfriends for one of our monthly get-togethers at W Cafe, a new spot in Newport Beach. It might be difficult to find if you’re not exactly sure where it is. If you are familiar with Haute Cakes Cafe, it’s in the same plaza further to the left, hidden at the […]

Restauration — Long Beach

August 3, 2015 Mad Hungry Woman Leave a Comment

Another venture into Long Beach, this time, lunch at Restauration. We arrive to a beautifully quaint place and I stop for a moment to admire it. It is utterly charming.

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 […]

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.
