Visit Orange County: Top 10 Eats

In a year's time I visited the Orange County area three times, and here are my top 10 eats from those trips* (not including any eats from Disneyland or California Adventure - those will be in a separate post):

*Items may no longer be on the menu or have been offered as specials only.

1. Southern Garlic Cheese Bread from Ralph Brennan's Jazz Kitchen - Garlicky, cheesy goodness!

2. Banberry Pie from Polly's Pies - I'm not much of a pie fan, but the combination of banana cream and strawberries was delicious!

3. Grilled Cobb Sandwich from Claim Jumper - The combination of chicken, bacon, avocado, and bleu cheese made for a delicious sandwich!

4. Cajun Turkey Club from Ralph Brennan's Jazz Kitchen - Although not as spicy as I expected, the sandwich was filling and delicious.


5. Sparkling Volcano from Rainforest Cafe - What a way to end a meal - with a fun brownie dessert!

6. Santa Fe Omelet from Mrs. Knott's Chicken Dinner Restaurant - A hearty breakfast with a little spicy kick!

7. California Chicken Sandwich from Red Robin Gourmet Burgers - Juicy chicken topped with bacon, guacamole, and more - YUM!

8. Awesome Appetizer Adventure: Chimi-Cha-Chas, Spinach & Artichoke Dip with Tri-Colored Tortilla Chips, Cheese Sticks, and Chicken Tenders. Served with Fresh Guacamole, Marinara and Coconut Curry Sauce from Rainforest Cafe - I loved the Chimi-Cha-Chas!

9. Chicken Club Sandwich from Johnny Rockets - I love club sandwiches, especially since bacon is usually included!

10. Ham & Cheese Omelette from Paul's Place - Reasonably-priced and satisfying!
