It’s Swai fish. [Steamed fish], you’ll need: * 2 scallions * fresh ginger, about 2 tablespoons julienned * 1 small bunch of cilantro * 1 ½ tablespoons soy sauce * 1/8 teaspoon salt * 1/8 teaspoon sugar * 2 tablespoons water * 1 filet of Swai fish Or Sea bass * 2 tablespoons Peanut oil Julienne the scallion and ginger and set aside. Give the cilantro a rough chop and set that aside as well. Combine the soy sauce, salt, sugar and water into a small bowl and mix well. Set that aside. Carefully lay your fish out onto a heatproof plate…

It’s funny to me that you guys say “Drive Ins” to what I know as DINER, for me Drive In is an open air cinema (huge parking like area and at the front there is a huge screen where movies are projected on, they give you radio station so you can here the sound of the movie in your car sound system) the Drive In also has a commissary area and restrooms. Just wanted to share that with you guys 😊. Thank you for taking is along on your “foodie rounds” 😊

Oh My Goodness!!! Ms. Leeeeeee! Ms. Le was my English teacher this year, this is so surprising to catch her on a KZbin video. You guys forgot to include Diners, a local and cheap place.

[@robertfujisaki5348]

Steamed fish is easy to make! I make the ginger and onion steamed fish or the black bean steam fish. We don’t have opakapaka which is great for steaming but our California calico bass or kelp bass is outstanding. You guys should try making it at home! Whole fish or filllets give different dining experiences. The only down side is putting the hot oil on the fish after steaming. The oil splatters everywhere. Tough to keep the kitchen clean!you should try!

[@stavana4875]

Hi Buddies we rolled by the new Chicken place on the way to Costco about 10:50 am today, big line waiting at the chicken place. My sister said we gonna go there 🤣🤣 thanks for the review.

Awesome! We love going to kalihi for foods! So much variety with decent prices🤙🏼

[@edwinwong5189]

I got you. Get some good fish filets. Fresh is better but frozen is fine. I do miracles with the Costco snapper filets or swai or any fish that is light and flaky. Defrost the filets if frozen under cool water. At the same time get some ginger and green onion and cut them up to the size you like. When your filets are defrosted. Get your steamer out. Here is an important step that makes a world of difference. Get some ti leaf. Clean and wash and cut them to the size of the filets. Put the tea leaf under the filets and some of the green onion and all the ginger in your steamer on the fish and steam till perfection. Heat up some oil to its smoking point of your choice. Drizzle a good amount of shoyu over the fish when done. Put the rest of the green onion, and then slowly pour the oil over all of it. Watch it sizzle and then enjoy.

[@AmandaFelixEats]

Gotta try it one day! Mahalo for the recipe and cooking instructions! 🤙

[@edwinwong5189]

I ain’t kidding. You gotta try it. I forgot to tell you to season the fish with salt and pepper. I prefer white pepper. Cut up a tiny bit of Hawaiian chili peppers and throw it in while you steam if you like spice. Made this for my gf for her first time one night and she said it tasted just like the fish she had at John Dominis back in the day when they were still in buisness. That was fancy dining back in the day. Hope you try it out and enjoy!

[@jeannewalling4593]

You're sister is so funny!

[@grandmax4]

Awww … big miss on Soul Chicken! Went there at noon today … nobody was in line - red flag! Ordered what you ordered and ate at one of the two little tables on the side after waiting 15 minutes for the order to be ready. The sweet & spicy boneless chicken came lukewarm and the honey wings was just warm. All the seasoning was in the fried batter and sauce, the chicken meat was very bland and not juicy. The fried seaweed rolls had a strong black pepper taste. Regardless, keep up the good eats … love y’all and da Von, too ❤️

Wow free food from Megs?! We'd be there every day! 😂 Diners sadly got bought out 😔

Diner's chicken katsu was the bestest! Katsu with a strawberry soda was the default Diner's order. Remember when there was a Diner's on Keeamoku where Walmart is now. God I am old 🙂.

[@vp3970]

But you see that’s the difference: Hawaii beef stew is beef/tomato base whereas Haole beef stew is just beef stock gravy thus Hawaiian stew red/orange gravy color and haole brown in color.
