It’s Tuesday.. time to find some Taco Tuesday!! If it wasn’t for yelp or my GPS, I’d drive by here and wouldn’t know it. This tiny restaurant is tucked in a non descript strip mall, that’s not even facing Chapman. Thankfully yelpers said find the donut shop, and […]
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 […]
After a wonderful meal at Chicken University, I decided to track down other ‘KFC’ places in my Korean dominated community. I stumbled upon Oh Mama Kitchen on Yelp. This little (no, really it’s tiny) restaurant is located off Rosecrans and Beach, behind the Polly Pies. It’s nestled between […]
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 […]
Jo Wan Noodle House is located off Euclid and La Palma, where the La Palma Chicken House used to be. It got decent reviews on yelp, and one reviewer said it is food of Chinese origin from people who were raised in Korea, or HwaKyo. This is not […]
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 […]
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 […]
I was invited to attend a progressive food tour of Koreatown by Avital Tours. It’s a 3 hour, 4-course progressive prix-fixe dining experience, where you visit 4 restaurants and receive two appetizers, one entree, and one dessert, with a sprinkling of culinary history and stories in between. Unfortunately, I was not […]
On Thursday, March 1st, Crepes Bonaparte had their grand opening celebration. From 5:00 to 9:00 pm, they were giving away a free Nutella crepe to anyone who stopped by. Free crepe! Of course I’ll stop by… as did a whole bunch of other fans of this food truck. […]

Wahlburgers is a Boston burger restaurant owned by chef Paul Wahlberg in partnership with two of his celebrity brothers Donnie and Mark. There are 14 locations, but only 1 in Nevada… and this one is located in front of the Bally’s hotel and casino, in the shops and restaurants area. […]
There’s a new Mediterranean restaurant called SAJJ in Ranch Santa Margarita (or RSM to the locals). They call it line style ordering… but you will relate more if I call it Chipotle or Subway style ordering. You pick your base, whether its a bowl, wrap or pita. Then you […]
It’s a Cracker Barrel. You come here for the inexpensive, brown or yellow food. There’s not a whole lot of food that’s considered fresh and healthy. Even their green beans are cooked with bacon, and limp like a can. The good part is I don’t have to drive […]
Happy Chinese New Year!! My mom wanted to get the family together for the Year of the Dog, and my sister recommended a different place about 10 minutes away. Unfortunately, that place was closed for the New Year, so I yelped this place. It’s located in a little […]
Pie Dog is probably Stephen and my favorite burger place. I like this place for their burgers made with 1/2 rib eye, 1/2 sirloin patties. I had the plain ol’ GI Joe, while Stephen had the My Cousin Vinnie, a burger with marinara and sausage. Stephen likes their […]
When in Buffalo, you should try the famous “Buffalo” wings at the famous Anchor Bar, right? We normally would, but with the weather outside being snowy (and freezing) plus we had a game in a few hours, we decided to try the “next” thing Buffalo was known for… hot […]
