Mr Brian's been going local :) Hope all is well with you. Looking forward to trying a new restaurant, or two this week with your OC Restaurant Week. May be even some thing "Tabu".

Thank you so much for the welcome. I am somewhat new to the OC scene. I have lived in NY, Virginia, Northern CA, Texas, and Alaska. Though I am new to this area - I am an old soul when it comes to eating, cooking, and restaurants. I LOVE to eat. And I LOVE to cook.

If any of you have a favorite seafood place in Orange county or a favorite brewery I would love to hear about them.

Haven Gastropub by Rich Manning

Last week, a friend and I were having a discussion about experiencing great food while we happily consumed fish tacos. After sharing a tale with me about how this particular chocolatier in New York City has permanently cast other chocolates in a lesser light, he confessed that his love for this cocoa-infused art led him to realize that he would gladly experience the best type of food the world has to offer, then spend the rest of his days in anger over the fact that the globe cannot offer anythi…

No Bull: Matador Cantina is Terrific
By Rich Manning

There is one constant ingredient in all Mexican food: love. Yes, I know that such a line sounds a bit hackneyed and cliched – okay it sounds a lot hackneyed and chiched – but it has always rung true in my experience. I grew up i…
