The Alley's Tasty Chicken, a local favorite! The place was even featured on Diners Drive-ins and Dives!

My husband and I were just there on 3/16, sitting on that same exact table you folks are on!

Nice! Hope you guys had a great time!

I did Jr. bowling at Aiea back in the 1970's. They were called the Aiea Wiz Kids. The Alley has awesome comfort foods and it's great to see you were able to enjoy them like us locals do!

I lost my car at the Ala Moana parking. I parked by the flag, not knowing flags were all over there..lol. I eventually found it. Too funny. 😂

Always take a photo of your car and the location ID...less stress for me anyway...lol.

I remember Aiea Bowl from my time back in the early 90s-2000s. Can't believe they are still in business.😄

The oxtail soup is great there. I like that and the pumpkin crunch desert!

When I was in Hawaii I didn’t know what to try. I ate mostly junk food and came home saying I didn’t care for the food. If I ever go back I’ll know what and where to eat. Have a fun day

Your videos are my comfort content ❤ 🤗 I feel like I’m a kid again, on a fun vacation with mom and dad! Lol!

HAPPY ST PATTY DAY ALL!!!! Now back to the show…. 😂

Hi Bill and Lisa. Aiea Bowl was my old stomping grounds. Before the freeway came through my Grandma lived across the street. There are still a couple of homes still there. One of them is my cousin’s house. What a wonderful trip. It is so nice that you are able to do these short trips. Take care. Love and blessings from Hawaii❤️🙏🌺❤️

Hi 👋, Happy St. Patrick’s Day ☘️

Fun video. The shaved ice dessert looked yummy 😋. Next time, could you check out the Costco or Sam's Club in Honolulu?

Yum, new places to try.

You will find some good food in some of weirdest locations. That's entrepreneurship for ya.

You two always deliver a new slice of Oahu. Mahalo!

Hi Bill! Hi Lisa! I sure did enjoy traveling vicariously around Oahu with you folks on this trip. I wish I would’ve seen this video before our trip a couple of weeks ago. Since, our family reunion had a few family members that had never visited Hawaii before, my cousin-who lives there-had the group doing more touristy things, rather than local things…. Darn it! I absolutely LOVE bowling alley restaurants! Gardena Bowl and Crenshaw Bowl were old stomping grounds for my friends and I, back in the day. The food you folks had, looked soooo good! Especially, Lisa’s rich oxtail soup! I so wish I would’ve known about the swap meet! We were there from Sat-to-Sat, so I would’ve pushed for a Wednesday visit, had I known. Definitely spent way too much money on omiyage at Big Island Candies, at Ala Moana. Will definitely be planning a trip back sometime soon. This time, I’ll be armed with your videos, so I can show my cousin where I want to go. 😊 Take care and Mahalo Nui Loa for ALL of your amazing videos!

Mahalo for the shout out Bill and Lisa! Cookie Corner is my favorite and I have to agree that Donna's cookies are really good too! Because of you two.. I'm gonna finally go to Itchy Butt because the sauces looked soo good on the chicken and Aiea Bowl is a Locals favorite. Hope you liked Jejubing . It's my fav place and the fact that they don't ring up a tip option when you use credit card is rare to find at an establishment. Near your hotel in Waikiki is a place called Ice Monster. It's pure Taiwanese Shave Ice. Nhi and I would like to treat you there if you have more time on your next visit. Take care and Mahalo for supporting local👍🤙

I’m going to attempt to make a Hawaiian style oxtail soup at home. I’ve been researching for a good recipe. Should help me feed my craving for it until I can go back to visit!

Thanks for the great videos! 100k is inevitable.

You gotta try the Mahina Mahina next time. It’s so good with a Thai sauce on top.

Guys, we're you at Alunai 3 weeks ago? My wife and I thought we saw you on our way to the luau. We wanted to say aloha, but we didn't see you during the remainder of our stay. Maybe next time. So so so happy we followed your suggestions on monkeypod across the street. Mahalo!!!

Good stuff!

Lots of great popular local eats this time! And not very crowded as they usually are or were in the warmer months. Some notes: Off the Hook in Mānoa is famous for its cold ginger poke. I think they did it first. And the Allleyʻs owner/chef Glenn Uyeda (who left fine-dining NY restaurants to return to Hawaiʻi to buy and renovate the Aiea bowling alley and restaurant with his brother Gregg) came up with the tasty chicken and lemon & pumpkin crunch recipes that many places have tried to copy but canʻt beat. Iʻm glad you found out how much better Ala Moana Beach Park/Magic Island is than the beaches in Waikiki. Thatʻs where the locals go. Donnaʻs cookies used to be sold at Longs, but I donʻt see them there regularly like before. Oh, and please try not to say "back in the States" because Hawaiʻi is the 50th state in the U.S.! I was there in Waikiki on Wednesday at the Outrigger Reef Kani Ka Pila Grille for the Hawaiian music and walked around after 9 p.m., but I didnʻt see you!
