🌺 Adela’s Country Eatery, Kāne’ohe, HI Definitely a MUST when visiting O’ahu! After a long day of swimming this place hit the spot! They offer take out service only and recommend phoning ahead! We ordered: 🥢 Lechon 🐖Malunggay Pasta with the Adela’s original Moringa sauce with onions and tomatoes. One of the best meals on this trip! Truly #brokedamouth ‘Ono Grindz! I dream about this pasta. The Lechon was good too but gotta watch our cholesterol. 🥢 Taro pasta and 🦐shrimp with luau leaves, mushrooms and coconut cream sauce. This dish was rich and creamy. 🥢 Braised short ribs with rice and green beans (not pictured) forgot to take a photo before our keiki started eating. The meat was tender and juicy. Highly recommend this place if you’re ever on the windward side of O’ahu! #TeamCatacoots #AlohaCatacoots #OnoGrindzHI #OnoGrindzKaneohe #HawaiianFoodPorn
Spent last week on the Big Island of Hawaii. Here’s what gave me the Aloha spirit. 1. This shave ice (@alohaj808 🤪) from @originalbigislandshaveiceco was so good we ate it multiple times. Fresh sweet juice on top of the pillowy ice, with macadamia nut ice cream (choose your own flavor) and mochi on top. If I had one recommendation on where to go on the island. It’s this. 2. Kohala Burger and Taco @kohalaburger - my daughter requested a burger for dinner so we trekked up the road to Kohala Burger. Despite living in the land of the fish taco - I ordered their market fish taco of fresh caught local yellowtail. Nice large meaty chunk of pan seared yellowtail wedged between a delicious flour tortilla and lightly dressed. Really good, would eat this again and again. 3. I went around town asking if anyone could sub a non beef option for Loco Moco and was denied at every turn. On the way to the Volcanoes National Park I dropped by @cafe100hilo which has a large variety of Loco Moco. This grilled mahi mahi Loco Moco with the perfectly runny egg was so good I ordered two 😭😭. The hot sauce was the cherry on top. 4. Our very first stop when arriving was to grab some poke from Hale l’a Da Fish House. Abalone poke with a load of thinly sliced abalone and pickled veggies, spicy ahi poke, seaweed salad. Devoured this in 10 seconds. 5. THESE WAIMEI TOMATOES OMGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGHGGGHHHHGGGGGGGGG I ate a whole heirloom tomato like an apple. Ate a bag of cherry tomatoes. Ugh so good. If there was any produce I’d say you have to try here, head to the Waimea farmers market and get tomatoes. Honorable mentions: sushi at @moakitchenkamuela - $48 for a nice variety (including Kohada!) of nigiri I didn’t eat this but my daughter and wife gave a thumbs up on the GJ huli chicken - open only on Friday and Saturday for lunch.
@pokeguysto is my absolute "go-to" when it comes to the best #pokebowls in the city. The reason I'm beyond obsessed with their #poké bowls is because the "topping-to-base-ratio" is an impressive 65 to 35, so I get to enjoy more deliciousness than a lot of carbs (rice) or #kalegreens. My fav #pokebowl there is the #flavourful Cali, topped with loads of #wasabimayo, spicy #unagi and spicy #aioli. A very close second for me would be the #spicy "Mauna Loa", which packs in a really nice kick...wouldn't you agree, Jo @jofoodie_beauty?
Had to run some errands on this hot and sunny Friday, and found myself down around Philips & Baymeadows right around lunchtime. While staving off hunger pains, I was lucky enough to find @llhawaiibaymeadows and had been meaning to give them a try. And boy oh boy, I'm glad I did. I saw so many things on their menu I wanted to try, not to mention the bulgogi fries special I saw after I ordered, but I settled on the BBQ Mix platter. This smorgasbord of deliciousness had beef, chicken, and kalbi short ribs along with a heaping scoop of white rice and mac salad. Tender doesn't even begin to describe how the meats all fell apart, and the marinade each had imparted a flavor that was out of this world. Now, if you'll excuse me, the meat sweats are giving me a serious case of the Itis, and a nap is in my future. #meatsnaxjax
Let's talk the eats in Hawaii🍴💕🤙🏻 Tons of fresh fish & fruit fill every dish & inspire lots of drinks! Personal faves were the garlic shrimp, alllll the poke, masubis, shave ice with ice-cream in the center & everything Pineapple! 🙌🏻
Since my birthday was Friday, we had to something a little more extravagant. Went out to Mauna Lani Resort and had dinner at Canoehouse. I can't say enough good things about the food, ambiance, service, and overall experience. Everything was great but my standouts were the Shokupan Pull Apart Bread, fried rice, and the Grilled Whole Keahole Lobster. Definitely put this on your list if heading to the Big Island.
Ever since we decided we were coming to Hawaii we have been looking forward to eating at Umekes. Sure it was on Triple D with Guy, but outside of that, it's garnered raves on its own especially with their poke. I had to go with the Big Boy Poke Plate in order to maximize my poke experience. I went with their signature poke the Hottie and the Kanaka which had a little heat with some sweet soy sauce. For my sides, I obviously chose mac salad along with crab salad to have a little variation in my seafood. This was some of the freshest and most flavorful poke I have had. Everything played well together even if you mixed the pokes, rice, and the salads. I don't know if we'll have time to go back to Umekes but we sure will try.
Who doesn't #love #friedrice, especially when it's a #japanesestyle one made with #glutenfree #wholegrain #brownrice @minutericecanada and just a few other #simpleingredients ( #spam, #sweetcorn, #eggs, #seaweed or #nori, and #greenonions or #scallions)? The #tasty #homemade #teriyaki sauce is optional, but it sure brings this #ricedish to the next level!
