Hi Bill & Lisa. Could you do a cooking video & showcase Lisa making her turkey dinner?

[@SuiGenerisAbbie]

Who does not love Turkey Lurkey?

[@billandlisa]

We may do that in a future video.

[@SuiGenerisAbbie]

@@billandlisa I am a big Turkey-Lurkey fan!

[@winniepoohbear8916]

Id watch❤

[@yvonneacosta2539]

Another great annual Q&A. Still thinking about Lisa's turkey meal. Best meal of the year plus great leftovers. Think the most shocking part of the video is Bill finishing his beer before Lisa. 😲😂 On the road to 100K!

[@billandlisa]

Thanks Yvonne! I finally finished my beer before she did! Ha!

[@tracyb8074]

Tim Lee is such a polite guy!

Hello Bill and Lisa, My husband and I are big fans from Irvine, CA. I would love to see more videos of NOLA and Mexico maybe even over the border eats. Our family recently went to Tijuana and had some awesome seafood.. the restaurant is called Mariscos Mazatlan. I would totally put that on the raider. ❤ continued blessings The Stones

Your stress levels must be high during the travel elements of your trips. Your weekend time is only traditional Friday night-Sat-Sun? Cramming stuff in 2 b sure! Must be exhausted on Monday after a trip while at work. Thanks for sharing with us. Safe and fun! Bless.

[@billandlisa]

Our 'weekends' are Mon-Wed. Not too stressful anymore, we're professional jet laggers.

[@deedeew4040]

When I left Southern California, there were not many restaurants 31 years ago. People did not go out to eat often. I lived in South Torrance and La Mirada.

Welcome to our channel!

[@paxpax23]

Hello’s 👋, from Baytown,Texas

[@nocturna1964]

Hi Bill and Lisa! Don't know about you guys in Torrance but it's starting to sprinkle over here. I'm right on LA/OC border. Regarding foods you won't try: I can't see you guys trying Casu Marzu.😁🤣 As for "local" eats, Can you add the new Waka Sakura to your "try list"?? Just opened upstairs in the Gardena Tokyo Central. Yes! Go to Canada! Especially Victoria and Montréal! (Victoria can be "done" in a weekend)!

[@billandlisa]

Thanks for the rec! Will have to check it out.

[@karenglaicar5486]

[@myheatherfeather]

When you are on a cruise with your family do you pay for their specialty restaurant dining when they are dining with you and also do you pay for their restaurant dining when your doing a food review in a restaurant and they are with you?

[@billandlisa]

Yes to both. We love when they get to join us.

[@myheatherfeather]

excellent folks that you are loving and including your family and besides making videos, making magnificent memories together.....love you two and always love seeing your extended family enjoying everything with you......@@billandlisa

[@spencer1193]

Great video guys! FYI: “Japanese only” just means there is no English menu. Everyone is welcome

[@billandlisa]

Thought that was the case, just took us a back when first seeing the sign (silly Americans lol).

[@Bitcoin_Gold]

South bay most allot Asian foods are in Gardena and some in Carson.

[@billandlisa]

Hawaii cruse sounds great to us. Maybe one day!

[@islandGG]

Freaky Deeky!! I was just going to post a question if you guys are doing a q&a for 2024 and here ya are! 😮 😯 lol. Question: did you guys go to a South Bay high school!! Gardena, Torrance; Narbonne?

[@thetravelingfoodies]

Who are some of you guys fave food and travel KZbinrs?

This very INFORMATIVE Channel, about living in Japan, from an Aussie Gaijin (Foreigner) who has lived there for about 15 years, is married to a Japanese woman, has kids by her is terrific! In his "How to do stuff in Japan" playlist the channel owner talks about Japan by and large still not being all that English and/ or Foreigner friendly. I have watched his channel for YEARS. youtube.com/@TheJapanChannelDcom?si=klKbcAmbD4_W7QVv

We love watching your videos. You should come to Texas and cruise out of Galveston. We went on the new Carnival Jubilee for New Year’s Eve cruise. We enjoyed all the new food venues added and all the new open areas. We also cruise on Royal out of Galveston too. 😊❤️

[@billandlisa]

Hopefully one day!

[@Heidishereandthere]

You should go on an Alaskan cruise! 😊❤

[@Alan-sl7qz]

Well done Q & A video, Bill and Lisa. You said New Orleans and Hawaii are your favorite destinations, but as far as the destination most visited, would it be Las Vegas?

[@billandlisa]

That would be accurate. Vegas is so convenient for us. In fact, we almost planned on going there this weekend. lol

[@jackiemcglone9225]

Hi Lisa and Bill. I for one very much enjoy your videos. I am very excited when you guys upload. You both look great and happy. Loved the Q & A. Take care.

[@billandlisa]

Thank you, Jackie!

[@mikemcdaniel7675]

On your next trip to Kauai consider going to the Tip Top Cafe in Lihue. Very renowned for their Ox Tail Soup that I know Lisa loves. The Hawaiian pancakes are very good as well🤙

[@billandlisa]

Thanks for the tip! We’ll bookmark it. 👍🏼

[@echo0064]

Kauai is my favorite island. I am making notes on this one ❤

I need to see your New Orleans videos again as I'm going to Mardi Gras with a friend from San Antonio which is an awesome town especially down by the Riverwalk! Cheers! Gloria from far far West Texas

[@billandlisa]

Madi Gras is a bit crazy, but fun!

[@thetravelingfoodies]

I searched tacos Lucero on KZbin and every single person in their video said they went there because of you guys. Talk about influence.

[@billandlisa]

That’s awesome! They’re such a small hole in the wall business that serves great fish and shrimp tacos, we’re happy they’re getting the traffic.

[@lilylee5924]

I came across your videos and It is amazing that you travel to places for a few days or a long weekend. Are flights cheaper on stand by? Do you find hotels to stay when you arrive? I admire your travels! Do you stay in Europe for a week? Are your stand by flights random time slots? My husband and I are retired and want to travel as you do. You both are an inspiration!

[@billandlisa]

We travel as stand by passengers. If space available, we get on. Thanks for watching!

[@ilovedisney2123]

Glad I found you two, my cavorite couple. Going to Vegas 6/1-6/3, so wanted tips. Jave yoi tried the Gardena Bowl? Good Jawaiian food in casual seating.

Welcome to our channel! Have a great time in Vegas. Yes on Gardena Bowl, check out our review here.. kzbin.info/www/bejne/n4OyYqKCpbKsnMUsi=FK_HAafVYhYMdRWg

[@cutepinksocks]

I was surprised to learn you both have full time jobs because with the amount of traveling videos I thought you were retired 😅 which leads me to wondering how do you afford so much travel and eating out? Do you use credit card perks or have membership/invitation to certain places? I appreciate your genuine reviews and enjoy your videos. Thanks for sharing

[@billandlisa]

We put back into the channel what we make on KZbin.

[@titasmom678]

You should do a staycation in SGV area on one of your weekends so you won't have to deal with traffic. I love SGV for Chinese food and friends that live there. I miss that. If you go back to St Louis, don't go to Lemp Mansion...supposed to be haunted...lol

[@billandlisa]

Good idea on the staycation. Lemp Mansion... noted!
