[@denisestempien6822]

I love Leonard's! My favorite filling is the dobash. Also we always to go Matsumoto's for shave ice and on that note....SWEETS!

[@Livingtheglobe]

[@JuanSanchez-ug8jw]

Matsumoto’s for sure 🤙

Coming to Oahu soon and all of your videos are so informative for those of us coming from the mainland!!!!

[@Livingtheglobe]

Glad you liked it

[@solidxrevolution]

Ted's Bakery is THE BEST. Makes me want to go back to Hawaii.

[@Livingtheglobe]

ooooo yesss! craving some right now!!!

when i visit I only go to local businesses, even the souvenirs I bring back home are created by the locals. It really supports the people there

[@cindytrotman8797]

Love Ted’s chocolate haupia pie, but Giovanni’s is the bomb when it comes to garlic shrimp!

[@scottking2340]

My wife and I are in Waikiki right now! We’ll definitely take your reviews and try them out. Mahalo!

[@Livingtheglobe]

Awesome! What have you tried and what do you like or disliked the most?

[@scottking2340]

@@Livingtheglobe there’s nothing to dislike! Ok, maybe the rat issue in the evenings. We stayed at the Hilton resort for our last few days in Hawaii. We went to the local food trucks to eat rather than the hotel restaurants, they’re just better. Great snorkeling, wonderful photo opportunities, and the most perfect beaches. As for food, I’m hooked on poi! 100 Sails was an amazing dining experience with damn good sushi.

[@Livingtheglobe]

Bono’s is good as well, but Ted’s it just sooooo good! Let us know.

[@aparna1170]

I tried like 3 different fillings. Liked them all. Personally , I loved the plain ones better. I put aside an whole afternoon to try this bakery. Caught hold of Uber to drive me from lewers st to kapahulu ave. And it was all worth it!!

Hi, first time watching and now subscribed! We are going back to Hawaii in later 2021 to celebrate my 70th (ugh!) birthday and our 45th wedding anniversary. We’ve been about five times already, but really looking forward to taking a foodie trip around the Island of Oahu...thanks to your terrific recommendations! We have nine days on Oahu and I plan on hitting quite a few of your suggested places! Thanks so much! (BTW, NOT having poi. Already had that 45 years ago when we went to a luau, while on our honeymoon... not a favorite of ours!)

[@Livingtheglobe]

Oh WOW! Congrats 🎉 that’s amazing! Thank you for your kind words🌈🌸

[@zxyatiywariii8]

Congratulations! Lol I love poi but I'm Polynesian and it's kind of like the Polynesian version of Swedish lutefisk -- people who grew up with it, love it; but many other people -- no! 😄

[@LisseteD]

Love Helena’s! Love Ted’s! Hono’s in Haleiwa is good too. Giovanni’s is a hard no. Leonard’s, just ok. I would never make an hour line for that.

[@quickdry3]

that shrimp place looks a lil too clean, dont' get me wrong, they do some good food - but there is something extra enjoyable about those roadside shrimp trucks that look like moving health code violations :) (my favourite one is some guy on the west coast that often parks in one of the vacant lots on the way out towards Makaha beach)

[@Livingtheglobe]

Still there

[@ANTDZLVIZION]

You are not lying. Those food trucks hot me hooked the last time I was there

[@jasonbabila6006]

When I was still living in Hawaii we used to make kalua in an I'm, but living in the states I make it in a slow cooker(crock pot), really simple, I use pork butt (Boston butt), smothered in liquid smoke and sea salt, wrapped tight in aluminum foil and slow cook over night on low for 6-8 hours until tender.

[@NeangMey]

I miss eating the musubis and shave ice. That’s my favorite place for shave ice. Hopefully we get to visit next year.

We went to a little place for Hawaiian food on the opposite of the road and few blocks down from the original leonard’s. we liked it and even though it was only a 10 min walk from waikiki beach we were the only people who looked like tourist.

Interesting! we have the same exact favorite places from number 1 to number 10! But if you let me to add few things here, beside Ahi Assassins I also like the poke from Tamura's and Maguro Brothers. Shave ice, Island Vintage is the best period (and their Aćai too). I like Ted's Garlic shrimps way more than Giovanni's, and yes it's way better. May I add number 11? Mixed Plate (at Diamond Head market & grill). and number 12: Baked and Steam Manapua (at Sing Cheong Bakery).

Poi was very very bland and absolutely tasteless. I don’t think in anyway one can bring out the flavor of that stuff. There are so many things Hawaiians could have done with Taro. Wonder why they chose to make Poi. Someone suggested me to mix it with Lomi lomi salmon and have. Yes, it did make a good dressing to the lomi lomi salmon. I personally won’t recommend to have it with kalua pork. Because it might kill the pork’s flavor. Kalua pork by itself is a must-try delicacy. It is a nice salty and delicious dish by itself.

[@Livingtheglobe]
