LA County Fair: It’s Fair Time! Fair, Food, & Fun! + Ticket Giveaway

LA County Fair: It’s Fair Time! Fair, Food, & Fun! + Ticket Giveaway

By: Erin

Disclosure: I was invited out to the Media Food Preview Night at the LA County Fair and I was provided with a 4 pack of tickets with a parking pass to the LA County Fair. All opinions are my own and I’ve been going to this fair for as long as I can remember. 😉

It’s that time of year again folks, and you know what that means! It’s time for the LA County Fair. All the rides, games, shows, concerts,  new animal exhibits and of course one of the main attractions, the FOOD!! Every year, the food is a huge draw at the fair, and as usual will not disappoint .  You will see the oh so familiar fried food fare from longtime fair favorites such as Chicken Charlie’s, but the fair does have some Gluten-Free options, one of my personal favorites; Terri’s Berries and then there is the Los Angeles International Wine & Spirits Marketplace. The Fair started last Friday, August 30th and will run through September 29th. This past Wednesday I was invited out to a food preview for a sneak peek of what’s in store for this year’s UN-LEASH Your Inner Fair at the LA County Fair!

This year the fair has been turned into “Calitopia,” where you can keep cool with underwater and animal adventures like those found in San Diego, animation workshops and Enterprise exhibits from Hollywood as well as wine tasting experiences straight from Napa Valley.

NOW! Onto the Food and Giveaway that you are probably here for. 😉 You can find these food vendors while out and about at the fair this year as well as many others.

The FOOD!!

1. Chicken Charlie’s

Chicken CharliesHow about we start out with some deep fried fair food fun? Be the first to try out the new Krispy Kreme Hamburger ($9.95), the Krispy Kreme Sloppy Joes ($7.75), Totally Fried Bacon Wrapped Pickles ($6.75), Waffle Dogs, and if you want something on the lighter side, they do have chicken kabobs. Don’t forget dessert! They also have the Totally Fried Twinkie that you can get with either chocolate or strawberry sauce drizzled on top.

Chicken CharlieChicken Charlie himself was there, so I just had to stop and get a picture taken with this famous fair icon. 🙂

LACountyFAIRMy favorites would have to be the Krispy Kreme Sloppy Joe and the Bacon wrapped pickles! Yum!

Wordless Wednesday: The Best Little Kitty

Wordless Wednesday: The Best Little Kitty

By: Erin

You may or may not have noticed a cute little tuxedo cat that often times would photo bomb his way onto the blog here. I’m sad to say that his photo bombing days are over as he is no longer with us. Having him since he was 8 weeks old, he was a huge part of me 16 1/2 years later! So here are just a handful of the fond, loving memories of him that I will cherish forever. <3

Moodaepo Rowland Heights: Korean BBQ at it’s finest!

Moodaepo Rowland Heights: Korean BBQ at it’s finest!

By: Erin

Disclosure: I was invited out to a media tasting for Moodaepo Rowland Heights by a fellow blogger. All thoughts and opinions remain my own.

You might have noticed from a previous post recently that I kind of, sort of, LOVE BBQ! American, Korean it doesn’t matter to me. Good BBQ is good BBQ! I was here last month at Moodaepo Rowland Heights and the food was awesome! One of the best Korean BBQ places you will find out here!! The quality of the food and service was outstanding. Oh, and don’t forget to check in on Yelp! for your FREE ICED COFFEE!! The Iced coffee went well with our meal, but I also am a huge coffee lover.

We were seated back in the VIP room which is great for large groups and parties as it is private and separate from the rest of the place. We tried out many of the lunch items as well as the Korean BBQ. Lunch Entrees included:
