Massive Plate Lunch Combos In Waipahu, Hawaii

[@Coyote_529]

Just warning you now, if we run into you while you're out and about you'll probably have to take a picture with my wife. She loves your videos and this is yet another spot for us to check out. :D

[@FoodFiend]

@@Coyote_529 aw awesome! I'd definitely take a picture with her for sure!

[@normandea]

Enjoying your videos from the Bay Area. No nonsense reviews. Just a normal person giving a no-hype opinion. Refreshing to be honest.

[@FoodFiend]

Thank you. 🤙

[@Truckngirl]

Descriptive dialogue, great close up shots and you make it all about the food... what a pleasant find for local grinds! Now excuse me while I go binge watch your past videos!

[@FoodFiend]

Thank you so much!

[@RodSwansmad]

Hi Misty , that is what I would call Comfort Food ! The usual suspects in the plate lunch 😋 Your surprise about the MacSalad was gold. Pricing was very keen too ! Cheers Rod and Gem 🤙

[@FoodFiend]

Aloha Rod and Gemma! Yes a great once a week treat! Have a great flight on Monday!

[@ThuanHoang-fd3dx]

Hello Misty, Oh my that a huge plate sure looks so delicious, fish look good and crunchy. Thank you so much for sharing your video. Have a good afternoon.

[@FoodFiend]

@@ThuanHoang-fd3dx Mahalo Thuan! Yes the fish and shrimp was the best part! Have a great day!

[@tealorturquoise]

😲😲😲 Everything looks so ono! The sound of the crunch on the fried shrimp! 😲

[@FoodFiend]

That was the bestest part! 🤤

[@martykong3592]

: ) THANKS MUCH for sharing monster plate lunches ! I would have to order mini's : ) LOVE the Menu and all the Curry and Breakfast options! WELL DONE indeed, enjoy your weekend ! : )

[@FoodFiend]

@martykong3592 yes I think a mini would've been sufficient! The plates were massive. Have a wonderful weekend!

99 Local Mixed Plate has my favorite Beef Stew Bowl. They moved from 99 Ranch Market, which was turned into The Home Depot in Mapunapuna. So even though they're further away, I still go there once in a while. Even though you're not fond of Macaroni Salad, my favorite is at Family BBQ located at the Airport Trade Center; their are more like a Potato Macaroni Salad.

[@FoodFiend]

@EvilTheOne i remember them next to the pho place. I always used to eat lunch at 99 Ranch during work. I also ate at the Family BBQ but never had the mac salad. With potatoes sounds better. I'd like to try the beef stew bowl at 99 Local amoxed Plate. . Sounds delicious!

[@EvilTheOne]

@@FoodFiend I grew up with my mother making great macaroni salads, She either made it with tuna OR with potato, although hardly ever by just merely being plain macaroni salad. But I did grow up with not having crunchy stuff inside the salad, so that's established my aversion to those things. And since family BBQ makes it with something similar to mashed potatoes, that made it interesting to me...and I liked it. Although this is coming from a person who usually likes macaroni salad. I suppose it's all a matter of taste.

[@jukif1454]

On your post we tried 808. Ono Balono! We had the Seafood Plate - Wife had Curry Stew both were good! Will definitely try others next visit. Thanks for your honest reviews.

[@FoodFiend]

You're welcome. Thanks so much for going and watching the videos. I'm so glad you liked the food.

[@kylerdad123]

Aloha Misty: I hope you, and the family, are doing well! This establishment was a great find, and its offering are a “showcase” Hawaii-style comfort food. Just looking at the food brought back many memories of the days of eating while living in Hawaii. Those combos looked massive and splitting one combo into three meals could be possible for me. It is good to hear that the restaurant has has different choices for those that might need to dine on a low carb/low fat cuisine. I hope Aiden enjoyed his share of the deliciousness. 😀. I am looking forward to the next great vlog. Best wishes and much 🧧, fellow 🐯! 🤙.

[@FoodFiend]

Aloha Bill! Very busy with work, but hanging in there. Yes, we made three meals out of these plates between me and Aiden. They are huge. I'd definitely go back again if we are ever in a rush for dinner and I have no time to cook. Thank you for always watching and commenting! I hope you had a great weekend and have a wonderful week ahead. Take care! 🤙😊

[@gailsiangco5599]

Yummy Plate Lunch ! I love tartar sauce & seafood ! Mahalo for sharing Misty !!! Enjoy your weekend !

[@FoodFiend]

Mahalo Gail! Have a great week ahead. 🤙

[@pascallane1129]

So enjoyable, relaxing vibe has got me through some rough times in my life,

[@FoodFiend]

@pascallane1129 sorry about your rough times. Hope things get better.

[@minato808]

That combo with the Hamburger Steak, Teri Beef and Beef Stew/Curry or Chili is pretty common at the plate lunch places I go to.

[@FoodFiend]

🤙

[@miketuggle9273]

Hawaiian BBQ plate lunches looked pretty good. I haven't had BBQ in such a while. I had a healthy lunch with my gal pal-Mahi Mahi Ceviche. She usually eats like a bird. Well, this time she ate so much she told me she got tired at the table. Fell asleep and turned into a lumber jack on the drive back home. lol. The tomatoes were fresh and the lime juice was very nice and refreshing. I think that is what got her.

[@FoodFiend]

Oh mahi mahi ceviche sounds amazing right now. These are pretty recorded so I haven't had anything to eat since 9am but an apple. It is now almost 10pm. Super busy day. 🤙

[@SakuraSpring]

Looks ono and so satisfying. As usual, you've found a gem in Waipahooo!

[@FoodFiend]

@@SakuraSpring yes! It was surely ono! Hope you and the family are doing well.

[@SakuraSpring]

@@FoodFiendThank you, Misty, we’re doing well. Hi 👋🏼 to both you and Aiden.

[@B1GJOHNSTUD]

happy aloha friday!! 🤙🏾

@B1GJOHNSTUD Happy Alpha Friday braddah! 🤙

[@ChristopherP.Siangco]

Happy Holiday’s Misty & Aiden ! Aloha from Gail Siangco

[@FoodFiend]

Happy holidays Gail! 🎅🌲

[@titasmom678]

Lol. These plate lunch combos looked amazing. I'm so happy when you show us new places. I watch another channel that the guy doesn't like vegetables, and his friend tells him to "eat his veggies!" So every time you say that you don't like cooked carrots, I'm thinking, "eat your carrots!" Maybe a more appetizing name for the tartar sauce color? Don't think I want to eat "sewer green tartar sauce". Too funny, Misty. Gotta try this place out soon.

[@FoodFiend]

@titasmom678 lol. I'm so weird. I hate cooked carrots but love them fresh in a salad. I love veggies but just not cooked carrots. Strange. I think you'd like it with their huge menu. 😊

[@titasmom678]

@FoodFiend I already told my sister we need to go here...maybe tmrw. Lol. Lunch plans just got finalized!

[@FoodFiend]

@@titasmom678 haha yes!

[@PatriciaNicely-hu5uh]

Oh my those plates look delicious. Thank you for the video.

[@FoodFiend]

You're very welcome Patricia!

[@valantonio580]

Wow! Thanks Misty another one bites the dust ha ha I mean plate lunch will definitely check this place out love all your honest reviews!

[@FoodFiend]

Mahalo so much for your support Val! 🤙

[@briany.5328]

I like the garlic salmon & furukake ahi from here. That beef stew looked so good I'ma try that next time.

[@FoodFiend]

@briany.5328 aurite! 🤙 we will trade and I'll try the garlic salmon and furikake ahi.

[@classyfiftynine8208]

Hi Misty ! Based on your recommendation... we had lunch here today. We ate inside the eatery. Like you, my wife isn't a fan of Mac-Salad but like you, she admitted it was pretty tasty 👌 DougK

[@FoodFiend]

Hi Doug K! Thanks for going! I'm glad your wife enjoyed the mac salad. I see you are back home. Enjoy your vacation!

[@AussieAngeS]

Aloha Misty! How are you, I hope you are well. Those all look good to me, but then I am watching this video hungry and I would think anything is yum at this point lol. Have a great week ahead hun

[@FoodFiend]

Aloha AussieAngie! I hope things are well on your end. It is wonderful to hear from you. Take care!

[@AussieAngeS]

@@FoodFiend I am doing ok, my father has been in hospital a few times but thankfully he is ok. Sorry I haven't been around

[@RainyKoiPool-vd2km]

Wow, someone who doesn't like mac salad says this one is good. Have to try it. 😃

[@FoodFiend]

Yes try em. Hope you like it. Otherwise maybe my tastebuds are off since I don't like it 🤣

[@pikakerose]

"If you are craving something greasy, fattening, unhealthy, and crispy..." Best description of something delicious. 🤣🤣🤣 Now I have to go try this place.

[@brianhirose8866]

Hey Misty, good to see you. Missed you last night. The first plate looked bomb but that beef stew looks winnahs! All need is one bowl of stiff day old poi! Cheehoo! Hopefully see you tonight? Shoots until next time aloha! 😊

[@FoodFiend]

Hey Brian. Nope no time this week for our meeting. Shucks. I'm so tired 😫 Have a great weekend! Beef stew with poi sounds so good right now!

[@roythousand13]

Damn, that looks good!

Yes it's an option for ART days. 🤙

[@pikakerose]

those plate lunches look real good do much on the menu i wouldn't know what to order going to try it out

love this channel 😮 now when my gf asks where we eating ? i'm surfing 🏄 on your channel

[@FoodFiend]

I don't frequent the Waipahu area but that looks good! BTW it looks like you're sitting in front of a green screen.

@@YoboDiver ART food!

[@uisguexjack]

Nice....

[@FoodFiend]

🤙

[@Abigail-d9d]

Can you review Don’s bbq next? It’s right next to this place.

[@FoodFiend]

I already did that a long time ago. The links for the restaurants reviewed in that shopping center are all in the description box. But here is the link to that specific restauarant: kzbin.info/www/bejne/gHOopqetesSJmqc

[@MarkFromHawaii]

That looks pretty good. Wanted to ask you Misty, what do you think of swai/basa fish being used as fried fish?

[@FoodFiend]

I don't mind eating it. I've read about how they're farmed in dirty areas and have high mercury content but I'm not too scared to eat it once in a while. I wouldn't eat it often or purchase it to cook at home. Same with Atlantic salmon. It's dirty and farmed in horrible conditions. If I could afford wild salmon often I'd buy that. You can't even find wild caught salmon in the grocery stores. I've only seen it at expensive places like Whole Foods.

[@MarkFromHawaii]

@@FoodFiend Thanks! I have a friend that is dead set against basa. Last week I had fish and chips and I knew right away that it was basa. But it was flaky, moist and the pieces were huge. I just had that "Oh no, I'm eating basa" psychological thing, lol.

[@FoodFiend]

@MarkFromHawaii 🤣I look at it this way. All the people in SE Asia eat it and they're still alive. You could compare it to Americans eating tons of chemicals in pre packaged foods and some ingredients are banned in other countries but stores still sell these chips, cookies and canned foods. But we're still alive too 🤣

[@purplepidgin]

Looks like a better L&L.

[@FoodFiend]

@@purplepidgin yes much better than L&L.

[@lestoyama5323]

How you stay so skinny Misty...? Thanks for always making me hungry with the grinds....

[@FoodFiend]

Aloha Les! I go to the gym almost every day and walk 10k to 11k steps a day. Also I don't eat starch during the rest of the week. 🤙

[@lestoyama5323]

[@kodiak536kodiak536]

Eh, stop showing this kine video😂😂😂😂 Make me home sick hea in Eat coast😢 We were just there in end of May, but I'm already ready to go home just to eat😂😂😂 You guys so lucky. You don't know how good you got it at home until you leave😢

[@FoodFiend]

@kodiak536kodiak536 🤣🤣🤣 I understand. That's what I tell locals that complain about Zippys or whatever that never leave home. They take it for granted. I also lived in Massachusetts for a bit in college and had rice shipped to me. Back then it was hard to find Calrose rice. Now it is easier to find. Hope you can find ingredients at am asian store to make food at home. We found plenty of ingredients and even Hawaiian Sun in Tennessee. I saw Hawaiian Sun in Boston too.

[@alant.541]

Greasy, fattening, unhealthy - 808 Hawaiian BBQ sounds like my kind of place. Everything looked delicious. I have to have that mac salad. Thanks!

[@FoodFiend]

@alant.541 yes so a good greasy treat! I think you'd enjoy the food. Have a great night Alan!

[@benjavier8262]

Looks really appetizing but its probaly expensive as hell

[@FoodFiend]

@benjavier8262 not really. Typical plate lunch prices for these times and they give more.

[@CoggieCarol]

I was excited about the beef stew till you said it was too sweet. But the fish looked ono.

[@FoodFiend]

Yeah I like savory beef stew. But the meat was great. Next time I'd definitely get a shrimp and fish plate.

[@FoodFiend]

@LagrangePoint901 aw shucks. So sorry. But if you ever come back you know where to go! 🤙

[@Trojan2024]

Not a fan of the place but that's just me. Pretty much quantity but not quality. Thanks for the video though.

[@FoodFiend]

@Trojan2024 no worries. I respect your opinion. 🤙

Be careful all the unhealthy foods you’re eating

[@FoodFiend]

You have to watch another video of what I eat in a week. This is once a week and I don't finish the plate and make it multiple meals. I have the blood work for blood sugar, cholesterol and blood pressure of a champ. I walk 10 to 11k steps a day. I'm good. Stay healthy. 🤙
