Jimmy’s Famous Tavern: Burgers and Romaine Hearts
Jimmy’s Famous Tavern may very well have the best juicy burgers in Orange County. But to say that’s all they are good at would not do them justice. Go for the burgers but stay and enjoy their salads and starters. Your tastebuds will thank you. I want to thank the staff at Jimmy’s Famous Tavern…
BOMB Sushi Pizza at Tokyo Table
BOMB sushi pizza. One bite and your taste buds will be blasted into a state of momentary nirvana. Savory, meaty, a tad crispy with a nori bottom but soft in the center, greasy with a lingering spicy kick.

Lao Tao Taiwanese Street Food
Lao Tao is not just another race-to-the-bottom Chinese restaurant in Chinatown. In fact, it doesn’t even serve Cantonese food or ethnic Vietnamese-Chinese food, the two staples of Chinatown. Lao Tao is different. Lao Tao focuses on experimental, low-priced but quality Taiwanese street food. In Taiwanese “Lao Tao” translates to “foodies” which coincidentally is the name of this eponymous blog which…
