This could be Newport Harbor but it is actually Marina Del Ray. I had brunch at Shanghai Red. They serve a typical brunch buffet but no Chinese food.

Katella Deli in Los Alamitos has some of the best pancakes around. They also have great cheesecake and chocolate cake.
My favorite pancakes are found at:
1. Katella Deli (Los Alamitos)
2. Ella’s (San Fransisco)
3. The Pantry (Los Angeles)
4. The Cottage (Laguna Beach)
5. Trader Joe’s (If you like to make pancakes at home)

I went to a Mexican restaraunt called “On the Border” in Aliso Viejo and saw this display of pictures which was the same display at “On the Border” in San Diego. What I found interesting was that the rest of the restaraunt design at each location is different. They have great tortillas and Margaritas.

This is Malarky’s Irish pub in Newport Beach. This is a pretty popular place and it gets crowded but that’s not why I took the picture. Can you guess why it took it?
Paris Hotel review is now in the info section.
