The Walrus and the Carpenter — Seattle

October 22, 2018 Mad Hungry Woman 2 Comments

It is always a challenge when traveling with friends to find a restaurant where the menu is favorable to everyone. On this particular evening, we are excited to venture out to the Ballard area of Seattle for dinner at The Walrus and the Carpenter. Tucked away in the back of a building — you have […]

I’ve been waiting for Chef Ross Pangilinan to open his own place. Having been an avid fan and follower of his while at Leatherby’s Café Rouge at Segerstrom Center for the Arts, I knew his talent and creativity would one day take him on to bigger and better things. So having said that, I didn’t […]

Padre — Long Beach

June 15, 2015 Mad Hungry Woman 3 Comments

In fact, they just very quietly opened their doors and waited for people to go in. But why did I break my own policy […]

February 13, 2015 Mad Hungry Woman Leave a Comment

It has been quite some time since I’ve dined at Addison, a little over three years in fact. I’ve seen Chef William Bradley at events since then, but it is never the same as a dining experience at Addison, where he has been at the helm since the beginning. Therefore, when I receive an invitation […]

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.
