Orange County Fair Fun and Food

August 4, 2011 By Lokness Leave a Comment

Last Saturday, Bryan and I went to the Orange County Fair. Five years back, we went to the fair once. Because it was a really hot day, we didn’t stay there for more than 1 hour. In my memory, OC Fair wasn’t that fun. Man, I was wrong! I am so glad that we went this time. It was a lot of fun!!!

The really exciting thing was that I got to pet animals. The little chicks were adorable! But I was in love with the goats! Some of the goats really like to be petted. They walked close to Bryan and I to let us pet them. While being petted, they looked up at us and gave us some super cute looks… Awww…. I just couldn’t walk away from them.

Other than the animals, it was nice to see all the strawberry, pumpkin, beans, cucumber, mango plants. It was a good reminder to show us what our fruit and veggie plants look like.

Beans

Of course, I have to take about the food. Because Bryan and I only have two stomachs, we couldn’t eat everything. We got a turkey leg, one roasted corn, one order of onion rings, and the fried oreo. The turkey leg was huge. It looked a bit dry, but it was actually very tender and juicy. The smokiness gave the leg some extra flavors. It was good! The corn on the cob was good too. It was something more refreshing. Onion rings just didn’t make it. The batter was thick, and the onions were not sweet. I enjoyed the fried oreo. Bryan said they were like stuffed donut holes. They were tasty. If I can eat more, I would have the chocolate covered bacon, the fried klondike ice cream bar, and funnel cake. For the fried butter, I just couldn’t imagine what it is like. No, thank you! Fried kool-aid? I am not a fan of kool-aid, so I don’t care much.

Fried Oreo

Overall, I had a really good time. It was nice to walk around and see something cool. Next year? Yea, I actually want to go again! Heehee…. We will see.

Pistachio Glutinous Rice Balls (開心果糯米糍 Pistachio Glutinous Rice Balls (開心果糯米糍). These’re super popular in Hong Kong right now. The outside is chewy & soft like mochi. The inside is filled w/ ground roasted pistachios & sugar. Sweet & nutty. Absolutely delicious! No wonder people can’t get enough of these.

This year, I kept it simple with the decorations, but Bryan & I built this Lego bamboo. Lucky bamboo symbolizes prosperity & good fortune—and being Lego, it’ll last forever. I also bought some pistachios, known as “開心果” (happy nuts) in Cantonese, which symbolize happiness. 2025 hasn’t had the smoothest start, so I’ll gladly take all the happiness and good vibes I can get! 

恭喜發財! Gong Hei Fat Choy!🏮🧧🐍

We’re back at decorating Rose Parade floats this We’re back at decorating Rose Parade floats this year!🌹 Fluffing and gluing so many carnations for the Honda float. This time, we decided to come on a later date, & the vibe was totally different from last year. There were news crews, tons of volunteers, adorable rescue dogs (they’ll be on the Pasadena Humane float 🐾), & even Gayle King! Our legs & backs are aching right now, but honestly? I wouldn’t trade it for anything. Loved every minute of it! ❤️

Yesterday, we went to Disneyland and Disney Califo Yesterday, we went to Disneyland and Disney California Adventure. Festive, & luckily, it wasn’t too crowded. I went in with a long list of foods to try, but by 4 PM, we were already stuffed! Here are some of our favorites:

1. Mickey Gingerbread - The most popular holiday treat! We’ve had this before & loved it just as much this time around. It’s soft & chewy with ginger and warm spices. And let’s be honest - they’re just way too cute! Quick tip: I placed a mobile-order through Jolly Holiday at 7am when the windows opened. Yes, I ordered it before arriving at Disneyland. It can sold out quickly, especially on a busy day. These can sell out fast, especially on busy days. You might find them at Market House too, but there’s no mobile ordering option there. (From Jolly Holiday)
2. Waffle Cristo - A twist on the classic Monte Cristo. Ham, turkey, & Swiss cheese on crispy waffles. Adding a touch of strawberry jam & maple syrup made for an amazing sweet & savory combo. Definitely getting this again next time. (From Royal Street Veranda)
3. Mickey-Shaped Beignets - 1st time trying these. Light & fresh! (From Mint Julep Bar)
4. Lobster Nachos - The nachos were flavorful as always, though I wouldn’t have minded a bit more sauce this time. Fair warning: the jalapeños brought some serious heat!
5. 2319 - This fruity coconutty drink is non-alcoholic. So refreshing! Loved it! (From Lamplight Lounge in DCA)
6. Churro - Hot & fresh! Always a must! (From churro carts)
7. Cold Brew Black Caf - Tasty! It kind of reminds me of tiramisu. If you’re in Galaxy’s Edge area, definitely check it out. (From Docking Bay 7 Food and Cargo)
8. Dole Whip - No Disneyland trip is complete without this! I always go for the classic pineapple flavor. Tangy, refreshing, & never disappoints. (From The Tropical Hideaway)
