Waikiki Food Tour - Trying Foods We’ve Never Had Before!

[@almond_jellii]

Great video! Just a note on the charcoal, if you take any medications, make sure you don't consume charcoal any time near your med time. It can absorb your medication before it can get into your system. Charcoal is often used to absorb poison, so it treats medication in the same manner if it's still in your digestive system.

[@OrdinaryAdventures]

👍

[@notyourmama6511]

Good tip.

[@RodSwansmad]

Interesting, thanks for the tip 🤙

[@SplendentGoddess]

Came here to say the same thing. Charcoal is harmless if you're not on any meds, but definitely be careful if you are! You don't wanna risk something like your blood pressure meds (or birth control!) losing its effectiveness.

[@ChronicRapunzel]

Came here to say the same thing. People often recommend charcoal to celiacs if they have been glutened, but it doesn’t help with that, it just messes with your meds!

[@NellaneetsO]

As a Filipino I was so excited to see you try the halo halo!! I know the beans can throw some people off but I’m so happy y’all liked it 😋🤩

[@ThePughTwo]

Is it unhealthy that every time you all post a video of your adventures in Hawaii, we check flight prices? Great video guys!

[@OrdinaryAdventures]

😂 we’d love to watch videos of you guys exploring Hawaii. So much great food!

Legendary Epic vid! I grew up watching my mom eat that "bean drink" lol as she is from the Philippines my dad's a haole. They lived there in the 70s and watched jack lord book em then had me in the 80s. I used to think it looked so gross but I always remembered it making her happy!

[@kirkchan7726]

The Itchy Butt garlic chicken looked flipping amazing. That would be right up my alley!

[@michaels9595]

garlic chicken from hawaii is da bomb!

Halo-Halo is legit one of my FAVORITE treats. That with some chicken joy from jolibee's - absolutely next level.

[@OrdinaryAdventures]

I’m gonna have to try it from jollibe

[@rocioperez-mejia4922]

I loved the noodle place with the tempura when I was in Waikiki. Glad you featured it 🎉😋

[@1kaaa]

One time in line at Marugame, my mom was waiting in line and I joined her later after walking from somewhere. This old white guy in his 60's behind her made a huge fuss about me "cutting" when in fact my mom was in line in front of him. I told him it's not cutting and not a big deal. He was acting like such a baby and entitled. No one stood up for me so I let him ahead of us. I shouldn't have let him. I'm always reminded of that when I visit Hawaii. I can't wait to go back. :) Anyway, love the video. Thanks for reading my Ted talk.

[@OrdinaryAdventures]

Haha

[@tinawimberley5035]

WOW! Such a great list of food stops! I almost skipped this one, and so glad I didn't! Thanks for the great recommendations!!

[@OrdinaryAdventures]

You are so welcome!

[@pam4785]

I love Marugame! They have a handful in the bay area and it's my all time favorite place to go to! Portions are so large and affordable! My favorite is the #8 which is the beef udon 🤤

[@wingednikepub7405]

I think there are a few in the LA area, too.

[@marjielalonde3875]

It`s great that you tried such a good variety of foods when you were there, from upscale restaurants to local take-out. This is such a great follow-up to your first Hawaii trip (when I first subscribed.

[@OrdinaryAdventures]

Thank you 😊

[@evanssego7647]

Glad you guys came back to Hawaii. I recommend trying the Musubi's at 7-Eleven. And even though I live on Oahu (on the windward side), its been years since I went to Waikiki so it was good to see the different restaurants that Waikiki has to offer.

You guys got the Halo Halo definition correct. 😊 The key ingredient for me is the condensed milk. My mom used to make this her own way when my sister and I were growing up. Glad to see you gave it an Ordinary Adventures ⭐️! 🤙🏼

The research you guys do for your trips/videos definitely shows! Another awesome video!

[@Kap00rwith2os]

Don't worry about cutting through hotels and stuff, us local people do it all the time 😁. Yeah Waikiki is not my favorite place, it didn't used to be so gentrified until the early 2000s. My dad actually had a shop at International Marketplace back when they used to be a chaotic jumble of shops and stands. Not to mention some of the weirdos 😅 Also I hope you managed to get to Kailua side for my favorite beach of all, Lanikai Beach during this trip! Also Cinnamon's for breakfast!

[@OrdinaryAdventures]

Good to know!

[@scottbehlmann8031]

Great video! I would love to go all the places you guys go!

7:19 Sweet Potato Tempura Sushi is my favorite. So good

[@billandlisa]

Great that you made it to Itchy Butt! We've been meaning to go back and try something different, but there's too many eating choices and too little time. lol

[@OrdinaryAdventures]

Oh wow didn’t know you guys went to itchy butt, just when I thought we watched all of your Hawaii videos. Will have to go looking for that one. Itchy butt was surprisingly one of the best places we went on this trip!

[@kathyromack9314]

I’m sure I commented on this video before but I am re-watching it because we leave for Oahu in freaking 17 days! Ack! We are staying at the same hotel in Waikiki, it got really good reviews and I like the idea of a quieter setting. So, we will have to ask how to get to the beach from there. We having sunset dinner reservations at House Without a Key our first night and Hula Grill the second night. Thinking of stopping at Itchy Butt on our way to Waikiki from the airport because that lunch looked so good (and I’m freaking out about how much $$we are going to be spending this trip). Two nights Waikiki followed by 5 nights Aulani. Cannot wait…..thanks for your videos, they have been very helpful!

[@OrdinaryAdventures]

You are going to have so much fun! I forget the exact path to the beach but you basically cut through a parking garage on the left and go through the hotel to the beach

[@Gibsy96]

Thank you for this! Looks so fun! Last time we didn’t leave Aulani. Not sure if we will next time…we might need to see more videos !! 😂

[@OrdinaryAdventures]

You should!

[@caitlynskiff2001]

I'm only 4 minutes in but I have to say that pork belly fried rice looked absolutely delicious! These videos make me so hungry and so envious of the people who live in Hawaii!

We always stay at the Aston Waikiki Circle… Lots of Special Prices even for the Ocean Front Room.

Nightly Hawaiian Music floats over from the Entertainment on the beach. Open air Lobby underneath Hotel.

Next time y'all are in Hawaii check out Cinnamon's (there are a couple of locations, I went to the one in Kailua) and try the guava pancakes. They are SO good, pretty sweet, but pretty tropical/ Hawaiian. And great idea going to the Udon place...I still think about and compare all udons to that place!

[@scully392z]

I love your videos.

Thank you 😊

[@hellsbells7105]

When we came to Waikiki hotel opposite the udon restaurant and the first day, we thought the same as you with the line and then the second day we thought give it a go because of the line and then got angry that we wasted a day where we didn’t go hahaha We did eat other places as well, but would have something during the day and then go there just before it closed I live in the UK and it’s been a few years now since I was there, but I still talk about it and whenever we go to the Japanese restaurant we always say it’s not as good as Marugame Udon 🍜 haha

[@OrdinaryAdventures]

Yum!

[@luonajgarroutte212]

I love your Hawaii videos. The islands are my happy place. I prefer the original International market and miss it. Very happy that they didn't destroy the banyan tree when they demolished everything else. My favorite drink there is Mango lava flows or the Monkey Pod Mai tai. If you haven't done it you should do the Xtreme Parasailing in Waikiki. I definitely need to try the Itchy Butt.

Love your videos! Have you looked at Hilton Hawaiian Village? It has great pools, beach and lagoon access and shopping area. Love that you featured halo-halo. When I was watching your Ko Olina video, it reminded me of the delicious Portuguese sausage breakfast plate from Island Vintage. So good! 🌺

[@OrdinaryAdventures]

We almost stayed there but I read that because it’s such a big compound it’s harder to walk to local Hawaiian places not at the resort. We wanted to be more in the center of everything

[@rnelsales6882]

True, better with a car. Walk’s not too bad to some places. The access and size of beach and pools is great, so convenient. You feel like you’re in a big, beautiful, tropical compound. Aulani rules too of course. Can’t wait for you to try all the different musubis! Thank you for your uplifting content!

Some Food Fun Facts about what yal ate. the Pancake's are made with Activated charcoal which makes it the cool black color BUT also is what they use at hospitals to help absorb certain kinds of poisoning. So very healthy you could say :P. The Udon noodles are some of the healthiest Noodles to eat (as long as there portioned with a good amount of protein. Halo Halo is often not eaten correctly but you did a great job!. *the more you know star*

Great video guys! The outside huge international market did you go? I was 25 last time I was in Waikiki I'm 65 😂 A very well known artist did a beautiful full color large portrait of me. But had to ship it to me because we were leaving the next day and it would not have been dry. Well originally from Co. They delivered it in the dead of winter I of course was working so was my roommate. So it was so windy and such a snowstorm that the ticket blew off the door apparently. Was not found until early summer shredded up from the lawn mower I know really long story. I never did get my beautiful portrait after I paid for it in Waikiki. Now that I'm so old I sure would love to see how beautiful it turned out back then I was pretty 😂 😂 😂 PS I did see you go wow I'm sorry but I liked how it looked way back in 1985 it was truly just a large outdoor international marketplace it was gorgeous it didn't really have high-end stores it was all artists and all different types of things were sold. BUT it was all done in the courtyard space but it was huge and a really long space. it was REALLY long probably about 5 to 6 city blocks yeah there was NO stores back then it looked totally different again I liked it back in 85 so much better! You guys were probably just babies 😂 🤣 My sister and I had a character cartoon portrait done there also. That I still have to this day! ✌️

[@IrieFiery]

SPAM is not popular and loved in Hawaii because of 'shipping' lol It was fed to the G.I.s before and during WWII, and became a favorite of the local and Native Hawaiians during this time, and has remained a favorite staple ever since.

Have you been to Little Damage in LA? It has charcoal ice cream and cones. It’s really yummy

[@tpanicadventures9589]

What you should have done, was what we did. We stayed in Waikiki first and did all of our driving around and exploring and then we got rid of the rental car and finished off our last 4 nights at Aulani. We saved the best for last. It was amazing.
