Dining

Tri-cultural delight

11.19.09

What happens when you have a melding of Japanese, French and Italian cuisine? For starters, there’s sea urchin spaghetti. Osso Bucco with Wagyu beef. Tuna tataki with buffalo mozzarella. At Cafe Hiro in Cypress, chef Hiro Ohiwa has been charming diners for years with his quirkily wonderful (and reasonably-priced!) fare. The small restaurant is adorned with cheerful decor, perfect for a casual date or fun gathering with friends. Don’t forget to save room for the fantastic desserts: the panna cotta, a silky custard that’s not too sweet and studded with fresh berries and the walnut creme brulee is a standout, too.

Be sure to call ahead for reservations as the place gets packed for dinner, especially on the weekends.

Cafe Hiro is located at 10509 Valley View St in Cypress (in the same plaza as Carl’s Jr.)

Can’t Sleep for ‘Spring Awakening’

11.17.09

Excited to see “Spring Awakening” tonight for the very first time at the Orange County Performing Arts Center. I read that McG is taking the Broadway rock musical onto the big screen, with a movie based on the original book by Steven Sater. It’s a coming-of-age story set in 19th-century Germany and centered on a group of teens discovering their sexuality. Tickets to see “Spring Awakening” range from $20 to $70 at OCPAC.org, at the Center’s Box Office at 600 Town Center Drive in Costa Mesa or by calling 714.556.2787. Check out this video with Orange County Performing Arts President Terry Dwyer.
