Santa’s got lists covered up at the North Pole, but here in Orange County it’s naughty and nice yelpers alike who know what it takes to make a list sizzle. This week we pay tribute to just a few of the lists that are sure to keep our bookmarks tab full.
With 34 cities in Orange County, lists are a major resource for finding the hidden gems in each one. South County’s well taken care of, with Robert C yelping about his ‘hood in Aliso Viejo and Austin C mapping out the best Cougar Hunting Grounds… and we’re pretty sure he’s not talking about mountain lions. Between Judi S exploring all the spots in Brea and Dave G all up in Yorba Linda, you’ll have no trouble finding the best that the Northern reaches of OC have to offer. In Irvine, Sonja L is on an exciting, one-woman mission to discredit the “boring” reputation of the city, while Ryan P prefers to keep it quaint as he lists his favorites eateries in Old Towne Orange.
On the nicer side, Caroline C keeps it prim and proper at all of her most-loved places for afternoon tea. Pinkies out! Rhea S knows how to show off those well-manicured pinkies when she carefully types out the list of spots she counts on to keep up her diva status. Meanwhile, blushing bride Jessica K puts her etiquette classes to good use as she lets us in on some of her secrets to Nuptial Bliss. Health-conscious eaters Safa S and David P also make the nice list as they spill the beans on the best vegetarian and healthy restaurants in OC.
Devlish Yuki M tempts us to join the naughty side by over-indulging on her “Did You Say Buffet?” list. Another fan of excess, Vanessa N swears, “If there’s refined sugar in it, I’m there” on her homage to the sweet tooth. The happiest hour of the day for David L, on the other hand, involves sugar of the alcohol variety… and discounted, at that! And Chris E rounds out the misbehavior by divulging his fave watering holes on “Drink, Drank, Drunk,” but is nice enough to warn that “your liver must be in good working condition!” Well, there’s only one way to find out…
