There’s something special about stumbling across a restaurant you’ve always wanted to try—and realizing it’s finally in your neighborhood. That’s exactly what happened when I saw Mama D’s had opened at Rolling Hills Plaza in Torrance. I have wanted to try this restaurant for years, and now it was time to see what all the…
Hello, Kate Spade x Target — a Fashionista Foodie Dream Come True!
BRB… going to Target! As a longtime Kate Spade fan (hello, purse obsession!), I couldn’t be more excited about this new collab. After absolutely swooning over the Hello Kitty x Kate Spade collection, I couldn’t wait to see what would come next — and when I heard Kate Spade was teaming up with Target? Instant…
Hello and Happy Easter!
Hello and Happy Easter! This weekend, I stopped by Torrance Bakery and couldn’t resist picking up the cutest little Easter chick cookie. With its soft yellow icing, tiny orange beak, and cheerful peep of personality 🐣, it’s almost too adorable to eat (but don’t worry 😉 —I did, and it was delicious 😋). Beyond the…
Hello, Trader Joe’s Spring Pastel Totes!
If you’ve followed me for a while, you probably already know—I have a soft spot for Trader Joe’s. One of my very first (and still most popular!) blog posts was about their iconic Speculoos Cookie Butter, and just a few months ago, I was swooning over their adorable pastel cooler bags. And now? Trader Joe’s…
Hello Gomaichi Ramen Redondo Beach!
As a devoted ramen enthusiast (and self-proclaimed noodle connoisseur), I couldn’t resist checking out the grand opening of Gomaichi Ramen. As the newest addition to Redondo Beach’s food scene, this spot immediately gave off go-to vibes — cozy atmosphere, friendly staff, and that unmistakable aroma of simmering broth in the air… yes, please. I also…
Hello SusieCakes Bakery Tacos!
For one day only, my favorite cupcake spot, SusieCakes Bakery, became my new go-to for tacos—April Fool’s! But here’s the twist… the tacos were 100% real (and 100% delicious). It was like a Taco Tuesday like no other when SusieCakes Bakery introduced Susies tacos for one day only. But instead of a savory taco, they…
Hello Again, Omeli Kitchen!
With spring in the air, I couldn’t resist 🐰 hopping back to one of my favorite spots —Omeli Kitchen in Fullerton, California. After such a great first experience a few months ago, I was excited to return to the OC and explore some new dishes. And let me tell you, they definitely didn’t disappoint! Lobster…
Hello Wanderlust Creamery!
Imagine a place where every scoop of ice cream transports your taste buds to a different corner of the world. That is exactly what I experienced when I visited Wanderlust Creamery, a Filipino-owned ice cream haven in Southern California. Founded by Adrienne Borlongan and Jon-Patrick Lopez in 2015, Wanderlust Creamery is more than just an…
Hello Torrance Firefighter’s Annual Spaghetti Dinner!
This past weekend, I had the privilege of attending the Torrance Firefighters’ 51st Annual Spaghetti Dinner at the Ken Miller Recreation Center in Torrance. This beloved community event has been going strong for over five decades. It wasn’t just a chance to enjoy some delicious food—it was also an opportunity to support a meaningful cause:…
Hello Spoon and Pork!
From humble beginnings as a food truck in 2017, Spoon & Pork has grown into a modern Filipino comfort food haven in Los Angeles. Founded by childhood friends Ray Yaptinchay and Josemari “Jay” Tugas, the restaurant quickly earned a loyal following and even caught the attention of the Michelin Guide. This Michelin-recognized spot has long…
