What special, lovely people you are to give "shout-outs" to folks who say hello or need a bit of praise!

I love this video!! Awesome memories on that side of the island...my grandmas family are from Hauula and Laie. So happy u folks went!! If you ever watched Man VS. FOOD theirs a old episode where he went to Laie and ate at Hukilau Cafe My Grandma and her sister (my namesake) were both on that section of the episode singing with their ukes. My grandma is the one with the shades. (Rip to both of them)

Glad to bring some happy memories to you, Tulima. Haven't seen that episode, we'll keep an eye our for it if it shows.

What a blessing for Leslie to have a great sister and brother-in- law that they invite her to go places.

Ray's has the kind of chicken that the original El Pollo Loco had at their East L.A. 24/7 stand. No comparison these days. Yumz to all. Will try Papa Ole's when I move back soon to Oahu. What a surf and turf plate. Nice to see The Lotus.

Bill Fong, You can’t be Korean or Japanese since your surname is Fong. It’s great to see Chinese people leave comments. You are correct that it is colder lately in the cold parts of the country. However, it wasn’t this cold before. The reality is that they did not film this video today, and immediately uploaded it today. I will bet that they are no longer in Hawaii now during these colder weather days lately. Tim Ho Wan does have abalone dim sum in Hawaii, but Not in NYC. They have never shown any Chinese delicacy foods in their videos. I guess their Chinese fans are probably only 1% which is lousy!!!!!! Forget about ginseng congee too!!!!! These holidays are no big deal to me. For me, the only big deal is my already passed December birthday!!!! Next is Chinese New Year, do you think they will surprise you, and celebrate the Chinese New Year with some Chinese delicacy food for you Bill Fong? You are a true Chinese fan that left a comment. Well, you know how Chinese people is Not seen or heard, and stay in the dark!!!!!!

I'm not sure when it became popular, but when I left Hawaii in 1978, I had never heard of loco moco before and Rainbow didn't have it on their menu.
