A stop at The Lazy Dog Café in Orange, California will both lighten your spirits and fill your belly. Owner Chris Simms established this warm, comfortable restaurant to hearken back to family vacations in Jackson Hole, Wyoming, and chef Gabriel Calendo fills the plates with some of the area’s most eclectic comfort food. Regulars rave about the sandwiches—the albacore tuna is a hit, especially when paired with the spicy Cajun fries or sweet potato tater tots. Grilled chicken on focaccia is also excellent. If you’re looking for something heartier, the pasta carbonara is a gut-busting specialty. For an interesting example of the range of cuisine available, order the togarashi edamame—soybeans stir-fried in a spectacular blend of spices. It’s a strong and unique combination of flavors! On nice days, make sure to eat out on the spacious, comfortable patio.
