I stopped here with coworkers for lunch. The food isn’t the best I’ve had but the price is fair and you get soup plus a drink! I had the 2 item lunch combo, and chose 2 chicken enchilada (red sauce) and it came with rice and beans. The beans […]
There’s so many varieties of fried chicken out there, so if you do have a favorite, this one could be added to your list as well. It’s not like Roscoes, it’s not like KFC, it’s not like Korean fried chicken. This Latin chicken has a flavor of its […]
Following the Ducks Select-a-Seat, the group of us went to Anepalco’s for brunch. They must have changed the menu because it seems more condensed, and a bit pricier. Stephen and I split the signature dish, their chilaquiles, and added carnitas to it. Sandy had the perdidos, which is […]
The Olde Ship has 2 locations, one in Fullerton off Harbor Blvd. and this one in Santa Ana, just down the street from Santa Ana Community College. This location is much larger than Fullerton, and has more parking. When you walk in, there is definitely a British “pub” feel […]
El Rocoto is located in a strip mall, sandwiched between a Ranch 99 Market, and Daiso discount store. There’s nothing out front to state its Peruvian (I always assumed it was Mexican, my bad). My normal go-to Peruvian place is Pollo Inka, located across the street, but a […]
I’m always looking out for Taco Tuesday specials, and never knew that Tilted Kilt had one. As we were leaving Tilted Kilt after a Ducks watch party, I spied the advertisement. So, last Tuesday, Karen and I decided to check out their Taco Tuesday (which also landed during […]
Ask someone where to go for German food in Southern California and people would say Old World in Huntington Beach, Alpine Village in Torrance, Matterns in Orange, or Jägerhaus in Anaheim. One hidden gem can be found in La Habra, off Imperial Blvd. and Beach Blvd., located in […]
I was driving through Buena Park and stumbled on Aji Limon. Located near Lincoln and Knott, in the corner of the Big 5 parking lot is this simple restaurant. The menu had your typical Peruvian items, and they even notated what is Chinese inspired and what is Japanese inspired, […]
The month of May is a busy time for me. It’s not just Mother’s day but my mother’s birthday, my sister’s birthday, my brother in law’s birthday (well, April, but we squish his into May) and my sister and brother in law’s anniversary. Whew! We decided to […]
I was craving Peruvian food, and my usual “go to” place El Pollo Inka is all the way in the South Bay. Thanks to yelp, I discovered this mom n pop place that’s located down the street from Disneyland, just off Ball and Euclid, in a busy strip mall […]
I was invited by a fellow SoCal blogger to try Taqueros. She couldn’t stop raving about this place, so I relented, and drove down to San Juan Capistrano to see what this Mexican restaurant was all about. Located down the road from JSerra High School, and a few […]
It’s another Taco Tuesday! Tucked away in a strip mall, across the parking lot from Popeyes, and Fresh Choice market is La Cotijas Grill. Their tacos on Tuesdays are just under 2 bucks at $1.99, and you can get any taco except the shrimp and fish tacos. Beers are […]
Cava Grill is a Mediterranean / Middle Eastern inspired restaurant located in Irvine, off Barranca and Culver, in the spot where Veggie Grill used to be. It’s in the same outdoor complex with many other popular places like Urban Plates, Doner G, Capital Noodles. Cava is a build-your-own […]
When we visit Las Vegas, I try to bring Stephen’s mom with us so she could have a little vacation as well. We also try to find places away from the Strip, and eat like the locals do. Last time we found a quaint German place for lunch, […]
In my ever non ending quest for a Taco Tuesday place, I found this one on Yelp and made this my Taco Tuesday pick. El Gallo De Oro means Gold Chicken. For a buck, you can choose any meat for the street taco. The place is located in […]
If it’s Tuesday, its Taco Tuesday! The restaurant is located in the shopping plaza off Euclid and Orangethorpe. During the week, I stop at the Starbucks that’s next door and never considered coming here until I was looking for a new Taco Tuesday place. While passing by the […]
The Original Taco Factory is a little shack located on the corner of Newport Avenue and Walnut, and it is small! The parking lot is funky, and there’s only 4 spots in the front, and most customers will double park so they can run in/ out with their […]
