at Tajima there is ramen for everyone — San Diego

March 28, 2016 Mad Hungry Woman 2 Comments

San Diego has some seriously decent Asian restaurants, clearly evident as you drive down Convoy Street, on both sides of Balboa. From Chinese, Korean, Japanese, and a few Vietnamese thrown in, you’re never short of choices whenever that craving hits. I usually go to Rakiraki for ramen, but on this occasion, I’m at Tajima instead. It […]

Gu Ramen Taps & Tapas — Laguna Beach

December 14, 2015 Mad Hungry Woman Leave a Comment

Although Laguna Beach is home to a few Japanese restaurants, there isn’t one dedicated exclusively to ramen. While Gu Ramen Taps & Tapas has “ramen” in its name, the little place on the corner of PCH and Thalia, also offers a tapas menu on top of other things, should you be dining with friends who are not interested in eating […]

Rakiraki revisited

June 9, 2014 Mad Hungry Woman 1 Comment

It’s been over a year since I first encountered Rakiraki on a trip to San Diego. If I had to sum this eatery up in a sentence, it would be “love at first bite”. Since then I’ve been back several times whenever I get the opportunity. Driving to San Diego always means a bowl of ramen at […]

I was scrolling through Twitter one day and saw an entry about a ramen place serving tsukemen, but it was in San Diego. I love tsukemen, a ramen style noodle dish served with a dipping broth on the side. Very few places in OC serve this and I’m always looking for better ones to try. […]

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.
