Belgian feast: Brussels Bistro in Laguna Beach
01.03.10
Get an authentic taste of Belgian cuisine right here in Orange County - in downtown Laguna Beach to be exact. Just walk down a short flight of stairs to the below-ground brasserie known as Brussels Bistro. Once inside the brick-walled eatery, the atmosphere is usually lively and boisterous, filled with patrons tucking into classic Belgian favorites like savory pommes frites (the Belgians are famous for their fries!), crock of mussels and of course, throwing back plenty of Belgian beers like Chimay.
Find other Belgian specialties like Flemish asparagus, cheese croquettes with gray shrimps from the North Sea, traditional waterzooi (a hearty stew) from Ghent, tender salmon with cherry beer - just to name a few.
Brussels Bistro is located at 222 Forest Avenue in Laguna Beach

Big Burgers, Big Deal
01.03.10
Wait a second, one minute Hooters is known for waitresses with big, well you know, and now we have to think of it as a Big Burger meal deal spot? So I read that Hooters claims that today’s debut of “More than a Mouthful Mondays” a ½ elle bee cheeseburger with French fries for $5.99 is the best value in the restaurant biz today. Hmmm, I guess they haven’t been to my favorite burger place in OC, T.K. Burgers where the big bargain combo (a cheeseburger and fries) costs $5.49. Not only that, but the girls are super cute too. Five OC locations.
