My parents worked with Uncle Bruce & Aunty Maile back in Kona, many years ago... They were the ORIGINAL owners or Island Flavor in Las Vegas (Durango). I wish they never left the 9th Island but I'm glad to see them doing well in SoCal!
You two lovely people always keep your adventures fresh and yumz.
I ♥️ you both, enjoy watching your travels and eats. Keep it coming!
Love love sweet sour spareribs. My mom taught me once gosh it was a long process. Respect her love in every meal she made us. My fav birthday dinner every year was her s/s spareribs and her Cantonese shrimp ❤️

Aloha Bill and Lisa: It was nice seeing you both enjoy some dishes that I enjoyed when I grew-up in Hawaii. That sweet and sour spare rib, kalbi and roast pork brought back a lot of great memories. Great that you found another great Hawaiian-inspired dining establishment in SoCal. Hope you have another “yummy” adventure soon. Stay dry, and safe, during the rainy weather! Best wishes and Kung Hee Faat Choy! 🧧 Much aloha and 🤙!

Good Morning to the both of you!
Aunty Maile's the best Hawaiian food in L.A, Use to go there on Friday to eat the Lau Lau & Poke!!!!
I was salivating throughout the video. Outstanding homey meals. What a spectacular finish with the chantilly cake. I have a list of places to go to whenever I can visit my friends on the Kailua side.

Nice video. Went there a few times prior to Covid. Going to go back there sometimes this year. Big portions. The food is really good. Have not tried the poke. The Kalbi is great.
You're tugging at my heart with these awesome places in Carson and Torrance. Lived in Carson back in the 70's and both Torrance and Carson had an abundance of terrific eating spots back then as well. Thanks for the Must-Do on my next trip to SoCal. Coming all the way from the Mariana Islands.

I've been to this place years and years ago. I will definitely check it out. Kings Hawaiian is the best place for HI food to my estimation. But it's all the up in the heart of Torrance and it's quite a ways out from the freeway. I will check out this place since its not too far from the freeway exit. Thank you.

I agree with you, I'm from the UK and can't comprehend why plastic forks, spoons, plates etc are used. The only good thing is that any leftovers are super easy to take home. Cardboard would be a better option with real cutlery x

They probably took that into consideration. Cardboard and paper bags are expensive. Unlike corporations, mom and pop restaurants have slim profit margins. Ps...if you look at their website they use plates.
