I’ve been wanting to check out Súp Noodle Bar for ages, and finally, one opens in my neck of the woods! The Irvine location is in the midst of soft opening, officially opening tomorrow with a host of goodies for guests on opening day (please see below for more details). We are huge fans of […]

satisfying meal at Ga Bistro

November 9, 2018 Mad Hungry Woman Leave a Comment

I’ve had Ga Bistro bookmarked on Yelp, but I don’t recall how or why I had it bookmarked. When my friend asked to meet for lunch, I suggested we try this place. It was empty when I arrived a few minutes before noon on a weekday. I took the opportunity to peruse the menu before […]

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.
