    Have you tried Wholesome Choice?

    I am sorry Aqua that you experienced that. I happen to be of Persian descent but anyone looking at me would never guess that I am Persian (they address me in English). I never experienced that- maybe you should give them a chance again.

    Have you tried Wholesome Choice?

    In Farsi- the fresh bread they make upfront is called Sangak. I go shopping to Wholesome every week- don't eat their food too much. If it's tradtional Persian food, I cook it myself. Their kebabs are pretty good though. I like their Greek station- but Chicago gyros are better! Lavash is...

    IAC? YUCK!

    We have friends in Santa Maria. There are a TON of kids. Parking is a problem if you are a visitor, but I think that's the case for most places. My friends live downstairs, and they did have noise issues from someone upstairs. I imagine if you have a 3-bedroom, you won't have that problem as...

    Newport Ridge Vistas

    The odd-numbered homes don't have views. Also- it has like 3 levels, so if you have kids and are worried about stairs, it may not be that practical.

    Holy Rip Off on QH home

    I totally agree IHO. I saw 39 Fresco and the view is outstanding. The only problem with the Fresco house is that it really isn't a true 4 bedroom. If you make it 4 bedrooms, the layout is a little odd. I went there when the realtors just put it on the market-constantly telling me it's not a...

    Holy Rip Off on QH home

    <a href="http://www.redfin.com/CA/Irvine/105-Bottlebrush-92603/home/5901920">These sellers are delusional</a> Here is their description- I can't believe they are actually going to raise their price to $1.75 million after the room add-on. The best lot in quiet cul-de-sac,highly...

    El Pollo Loco "Sliders"

    Have you tried Ruby's Diner's sliders? They are pretty good.

    El Pollo Loco "Sliders"

    I had some last night. I had a dance recital for my daughter and we were done at around 8:45 pm. I was craving pizza (but as a Chicagoan, I really don't like the pizza here- too many chains and I am not a stuffed pizza girl either- i like thin). Anyways, went to Amici but there was no pizza...

    The high-end is immune....uh oh, somebody better tell that to the St. Regis Hotel

    JMatthew- That is so funny you mention the bed! My husband and I stayed there for about 3 days when we thought about moving to OC. I hated the bed so much I wrote an email to complain about it when i got back to Chicago.

    Holy Rip Off on QH home

    At $1.4 million, they're encroaching on Vicara properties. 25 Fresco- with a view and single level and 3000 sq feet sold for $1.42 million. I had an interesting call from a broker for a home in the Port Streets. For some reason, i gave out my work number- but didn't give my extension...

    A new escrow thread for a new housing market...

    Does anyone know the closing price of 19125 Sierra Majorica? It was one of McMonigle's 90-Day Certain sale homes. I got an email saying it closed today. Thanks

    Holy Rip Off on QH home

    Don't get me wrong- the Terraces is an area I would like to buy my home- but not for $612/sq foot! Even Newport Beach homes in good areas are not going for that ridiculous $/sq foot. Maybe you've been listening to TonyE too much on the blog!

    Holy Rip Off on QH home

    I saw that listing and thought the same thing. You would think after the description of the backyard, that they would actually post some pictures of it! The same RE agency also listed another WTF home yesterday in the Terraces section of TRock. They want $1.6 million for 2600 sq feet.

    Art Class for Kids in Irvine or South OC

    CK- When you your kids go on Sat mornings? We go Tues and Sundays, but changed the Sundays to Saturdays at 8 am

    OK, this was unexpected..... give me your opinion.

    It's very nice- but isn't your heart set on TRock?

    Kids in a Wedding

    Your daughter should be fine- she's old enough. I would definitely get her to rest a bit before the wedding though, as it will be a long night! My daughter was 4 as a flower girl. We practiced, told her what she'd be doing. She's very outgoing, but I guess she got a little stage fright...

    Irvine Unified now requiring annual proof of residency

    Well- hopefully my daughter will be let into the school that she is supposed to go to (stonecreek) and not sent anywhere else because of potential crowding! I am still waiting for a final answer from them.
