Surfas in Costa Mesa.  Not cheap by any means, but great selection and service.  Good place to get rarer finds and get introduced to new options that you may be able to find cheaper elsewhere (e.g. Sprouts)

Thanks, everyone.

Does anyone know of any Parent/Mommy and Me groups that are designed for working parents?  There are several for stay at home moms, but their activities are all during the day on weekdays.  I have a 14 month old and we'd like to meet some other families.  We live in Westpark and none of our...

Yes, Shik Do Rak was the place I didn't care for, and we didn't even order the AYCE, which has the corresponding quality. I will have to try Korea House and Arirang, thanks irvinehomeowner.  I'm loving Irvine, but I do miss my Parks BBQ and Chosun in K-Town.  The galbi at Dae Myoung Ok is...

I really like this place.  I'm new to Irvine, but so far this is my favorite Korean place.  Where's the best Korean BBQ place around here?  I've been to the place on Jeffrey next to Taiko (kind remember the name), but I was sorely disappointed.

Thanks, please let me know how you end up liking his work.

That would be great. Thanks!

Can anyone recommend a reasonably priced plumber?  I just need a gas line set up for our backyard grill.  Thanks!

Thanks everyone. I think we're going with Wood Ranch.

Thank you for all the recommendations.  What is TI short for? I'm going to keep the babies and kids inside and the adults outside.  They're just too messy.  ;-)

I am throwing my one year old a casual, backyard birthday party (mostly adults).  Can anyone recommend tasty and relatively cheap catering/take out for about 30 people?  I don't mean tablecloths and buffet dishes, I mean cheap aluminum pans and plastic tubs.  I was thinking tacos, but I'm open...

Got it. Thanks!

That would be great. Please let me know if she is available.

Sorry, not really sure where to post this, but I am new to the area and was hoping someone could recommend their housekeeper.  I'm just looking for someone to do the heavy cleaning (bathrooms, vacuuming, linens, fridge, etc.) every other week.  Someone reliable and trustworthy, of course.  And...

LOL!  I'm Asian but I don't think I understand Asian ear wax problems, but I do understand blue baby butts.  Maybe I only understand half of the issues b/c my kid is only half Asian.  :-)

Thanks!  Moving to a new area can be overwhelming, particularly when you're talking about finding quality health care providers.  A bad tailor may ruin a nice pair of pants, but a bad pediatrician or OB?  Not something I want to experiment with.  Sounds like Irvine Pediatrics and Dr. Grouse are...

Thank you all. I had seen the earlier post but I just wanted to make sure people still liked irvine pediatrics. I had heard that they were turning into a bit of a mill.

My son is actually an infant, so I didn't look into the preschool side of things when I chose Kindercare.  If you do a search for preschools, there are certainly no shortage of posts about the preschools in Irvine.  I think there are lots of different schools of thought about them.  We chose...

I'm new to the area and I'm looking for recommendations for a pediatrician and an OB-Gyn, or a medical network that you like.  We have one child now, but I'd like a recommendation for an OB-Gyn that we could use for a second kid.  Alternatively, anyone I should stay away from?  Thanks in advance.

I'm moving to Irvine soon and enrolling my son in Kindercare.  With a referral, the referring family and I can each get $200 off tuition.  A rare win-win.  Please send me a message so we can coordinate.  I think I may just need your name and maybe your child's.
