Orange County said good-bye to its share of carnival escapades and fair adventures as the O.C. Fair closed for the summer. Now all the fun is on the road again… to us! According to Los Angeles Magazine, the O.C. fairgoers had quite the fair feast. They consumed: 3,900 17-inch Big Ribs 7,500 bacon-wrapped turkey legs…
Enter Your Creations in the Fair – Win a Blue Ribbon!
Hey howdy hey my L.A. County Fair peeps – been awhile, I know! The good thing about that is I now have a few new words to add to my lexicon of Fair exclamations like “winning!” and “tigerblood!”, although I may change that to “Thummerblood!” OK, maybe not. Anyway, we are getting ready for the…
Holy Deep-Fried Foodie, Thummer!
The L.A. County Fair is a food fantasy come true for Stef Andrews, who makes an annual pilgrimage to try every deep-fried delicacy, on-a-stick surprise and chocolate-covered treat we have to offer. So, it is only fitting that we announce Stef as the official 2010 L.A. County Fair Foodie! Stef, chief blogger at www.weheartthis.com, won our first-ever Fair…
Fred Flintstone Would Love This
Just heard we’ve added Dino Ribs to the Fair Food menu. Of course, the minute I heard, I thought of that Bedrock carhop ploppin’ a slab of ginormous ribs on the side of the Flintstones car. Yabba dabba yummy! The L.A. County Fair Dino (pronounced Dy-no) Ribs are big, juicy beef ribs, with one rib being…

I am not kidding you! There are only 75 days left until opening day of the 2009 L.A. County Fair! What happened to spring? It was just here. This past Sunday was the official start of summer, and you know what that means here on the grounds of Fairplex. It’s go time! So, in honor…
So, you want to wear a hat…
This Saturday will be my first ever Kentucky Derby Party so I have been doing a little research. I realize that this makes me somewhat of a “nerd” to most, but I’d like to think of it as necessary preparation… it’s not every day that I get to wear a dress and hat, so I…
They Call Me Mister Chicken
If you’ve been to the L.A. County Fair, you know him. Maybe not by sight or by his full name, but definitely from his amazing, deep fried concoctions. Deep-fried Oreos. Deep-fried avocados . Delectable Krispy Kreme chicken sandwiches with Swiss cheese drizzled in honey. He’s Charlie Boghosian, or Chicken Charlie as he is more commonly…
80 Days and Counting!
Yes, that’s what I said. Eighty days until the L.A. County Fair. 80. Eight-zero. Ate-eeeee! My list of what I’m looking forward to continues: Hot Dog on a Stick (of course, had to put that first!) Wally Parks NHRA Motorsports Museum (cool Hot Rods) Ice-cold chocolate milk at FairView Farms Chamois sold in the Shopping…
Deep-fried, BBQ and Chocolate, oh my!
One of the things my family and friends always ask me before the Fair gets here is what unusual food will you guys have this year? Guests have said in a survey that food is the number one reason for coming to the Fair. Gooey food, frozen food, food on a stick, ginormous food, food…
