Life is too short to be standing still! Follow me as I visit as many places as I can... food, shopping, destinations!! If that destination includes an Anaheim Ducks hockey game? Well, heck, that's even better.

Huzzah!! A Hainan Chicken place that’s not only legit, but saves me from driving to LA for my fix. This tiny restaurant is located in the Rowland Heights area, in a shopping plaza to the right of the 168 Supermarket. If you can’t wait for one of the […]
The Pizza Press in Fullerton is another “build your own” pizza place, but this place also serves craft beer.. the bonus in coming here versus Pieology located around the corner. It’s a little hard to find, as there’s no real big sign off the street. They’re located on […]
When I have the chance, I try to support the small business. This new Funko place is located at 14181 Newport Ave, Ste D, Tustin, CA 92780, and opened up a few months ago. It is located off the 5 freeway, in the same tiny strip mall where Gyu-Kaku is, so […]
I was in South County and hankering for some Tallarin Saltado… not the green pesto version, just the “normal” one with chicken or beef. This place popped up on Yelp with decent reviews. It wasn’t easy to find because it’s tucked in a non descript strip mall, behind a Walgreens. The […]
MFK means “Modern Filipino Kitchen” and Aysee is the owner’s grandmother. I have driven by this location multiple times, and never knew it because it really is hidden. It’s near the corner of Magnolia and La Palma, sandwiched behind a convenience store and an Ethiopian restaurant. If you […]
Karen and I collect Funko toys and the new headquarters is located about 40 minutes north of Seattle in the city of Everett, Washington… just a stones throw away from Boeing. After we left the Starbucks Reserve Roastery, we made our way north, stopping halfway in the city of Edmonds for breakfast at […]
Karen and I left Pike Place and went from the “first” Starbucks store to the first Starbucks Reserve Roastery. Located at 1124 Pike Street, the first Starbucks Reserve Roastery is located in Seattle’s vibrant Capitol Hill neighborhood. The new facility takes up 15,000 square feet and offers taste tests of […]
Good morning, Seattle! It was Karen’s first time in Seattle, so we had to visit the famous Pike Place Market. In my prior visits, I knew it would be very busy, so we decided to get there by 8:00, before the tourist and tour busses arrived. We were told […]
I wasn’t planning on going anywhere, but I came across an awesome deal from Long Beach to Seattle for $150.. round trip! I grabbed 2 seats and did a very quick trip to the Emerald City. I found a great little Airbnb located in the hip Ballard part of […]
On Tuesday night I was invited back to SAJJ Mediterranean in Rancho Santa Margarita to cover the media event for their new chocolate hummus. Unfortunately I was not able to attend, so my partner-in-crime, Chrissy went for me. Here’s her recap: Originally a food truck, SAJJ Mediterranean currently operates two […]
Old Crow Smokehouse is a Chicago based barbecue restaurant. There’s 2 in Southern California: 1 in Huntington Beach, and 1 in Orange, just a stone’s throw away from the Honda Center. We came here after we did the Paint the Ice event, and at 11:00 am, there were […]
My BFF Rebecca took me here to celebrate my belated birthday, and her daughter’s 15th. El Farolito is located off the 57 freeway /Chapman off quiet Bradford Street. There’s street parking and a private lot parking. Let’s start off with the food. Delicious! I couldn’t stop eating it. A+ for […]
On Saturday, April 28th, the Anaheim Ducks provided season tickets holders (now called the Orange Alliance) the opportunity to paint the NHL ice before scraping it down for the season. They had 4 time spots from 10:00, 11:00, 12:noon, and 1:00, with each session lasting 45-minutes. After going […]
Fullerton has a lot of KFC’s… that’s Korean Fried Chicken restaurants. Korean fried chicken differs from typical American fried chicken because it is fried twice and the skin is therefore crunchier and less greasy. The chicken is usually seasoned with spices, sugar, and salt, prior to and after […]
The NHL playoff begins tonight, and the game I am looking forward to is watching the Vegas Golden Knights will play their first post season against Los Angeles Kings. Las Vegas has been an amazing team this season (and, it’s their first year in the NHL). Here’s the […]
It’s the last game of the 2017-18 season, and the Ducks Die Hards (IG: DucksDieHards) organized a road trip to watch the team play the Coyotes at the Gila River Arena in Glendale, AZ. The fans all met at the Honda Center on Saturday, and we received an […]
This little Japanese restaurant is hidden in a strip mall, off Chapman and Victoria, across the street from a post office. We came on a Wednesday and was able to find parking, but I can see that parking can be an issue on weekends or on cooler days when […]
