[@HelloFromHawaii]

Great video supporting local. Glad the local restaurants are benefiting from the videos. Keep it up.

[@AmandaFelixEats]

Aloha! We hope we can bring more awareness to local business, especially during this pandemic! Mahalo for watching🤙🏼

[@PhotoLukeHawaii]

Amanda & Felix! Another awesome episode! Wow you folks always make the food look so good! Also thanks for the shout out, really appreciate it and especially because some of your viewers have come over to check me out too, mahalo! Can’t wait for the next episode! Aloha 😁🤙🏽

[@AmandaFelixEats]

Our pleasure! Mahalo for all your support! 🤙🏼 We're so glad our subscribers are choosing to watch you too!

[@tom.yoshida]

Guys, you always crack me up with your antics. I've lived in Kaimuki for almost 20 years and this is the mecca of food and dining with so many great places! Pipeline is simply my favorite place for great sweets. And you didn't try the malasadas... Their malamode (malasada and ala mode) is unreal...a must try. Triple chocolate brownie is sinful but I digress. Mahalo for what you do and I must try kawaii bowl.

[@AmandaFelixEats]

We definitely need to try their malamode since you recommend it🤤! Mahalo for watching🤙🏼

[@amvaquilar]

Love the tips to make it easier for us who only have limited time whenever we are on your island.

[@stacylee3703]

Thanks to you two my husband and I were able to explore and enjoy all the food that you both recommended. We were there since the 20th of February and just got back home to Minnesota this morning 😩 thanks for all the food videos!!!

[@AmandaFelixEats]

Glad you enjoyed the food and your stay here! Mahalo for watching and supporting🤙🏼

[@jennifergonzalez6236]

You guys are too funny...its not just a Hawaii thing Cubans eat rice and fried egg with fried spam and sometime fried sweet plantains. Love you guys Mahalo for the video!

[@mannyb9523]

“Oh maaaaan”! That’s it. This is a must go to.

[@ladymurasaki370]

I use to stay in Kaimuki during the summers with my aunt when I was younger & it sure has changed. I still remember Ben Franklin & Kaimuki theater!

[@AmandaFelixEats]

It sure has! Still feels like home for me though🥰 Mahalo for watching🤙🏼

[@tsn_life8]

Awesome guys that you’re helping out the locals!!👏🏻 We will definitely check some of these out if/when we visit😋🤙🏻 And everything looked yummy today too you guys🤤🤤

Eggs and Rice and Spam...breakfast, lunch or dinner yumz.

[@kimberlyvillatoro8863]

Oh wow all the food looked so amazing! Wrote them all down for my trip! Thanks for showing us these great places.

[@elleu9109]

Love Kaimuki! Grew up there but now live in MILILANI. When we go to visit fam, we have to stop at Happy Days, Broken Rice, Cow Cow, Pipeline, Scoonies... yes, all in one visit. Then we drive home and grind! Love your videos! Keep um coming!

[@AmandaFelixEats]

Happy Days is a legend in Kaimuki🥰 Been going there since I was a kid🤤 Mahalo for watching🤙🏼

[@davep.363]

Howzit Amanda & Felix! My name is Dave & recently started following you guys. I moved from home to Oregon and started watching your channel just makes me miss home even more!! I have been to Pipeline before and love the malasadas there! And yes there cakebombs are yummy!! So I have a few recommendations to try out and I'm sure you will enjoy them. 1st couple places is in Kaimuki and they are Saint Louis Dr Inn. Prices are fairly cheap, I use to go there whenever I had field trips in school and next to them is an Okazuya that's also pretty inexpensive and also good as well, although it's best to hit them in the morning because they tend to run out really fast. Another place is W&M Burger which is across from 711 in kaimuki. Awesome burgers and drinks as well. The next 2 places are owned by my classmate Alex Le and his brothers which also owned Toys & Joys up in Kaimuki where Pipeline currently is. The 1st location is Pig and the Lady which is downtown and their 2nd location is in Ward Center is Piggy Smalls. Both locations are the BOMBdigidy!! Another place to try is Ray's Cafe located a little past downtown going to kalihi, Ray is an awesome guy and they hook it up!, so check him out and he's also on Instagram. If you like Mexican food, try out Los Chaparos! Awesome food and reasonable price. The last place I recommend is Youngs Fish Market, my go to for Hawaiian food which is located across where you bought the taro malasadas from. And last place for dim sum is Happy Days Chinese restaurant in upper kaimuki. Great selection of dim sum and Chinese food. By all means if any of these suggestions are good or bad, let me know by DM me personally. Ok well mahalo nui loa and hope to hear back from you!

[@AmandaFelixEats]

Aloha! We've eaten at all of the places you recommend! My brother went to St Louis so we spent lots of days eating in that surrounding area! As for Pig and the Lady/Piggy Smalls, whenever we crave vietnamese fusion food it is a go to! Ray's cafe is another go to! We actually ordered that for Felix's sister's birthday brunch with the fam last year! The chef's name is Felix too!😆 Los Chaparos is another Felix's favorite Salsa place! Happy Day is another Dim Sum favorite! I grew up eating there as well! Mahalo for watching🤙🏼

[@davep.363]

@@AmandaFelixEats Oh wow right on guys, glad you have gone to most of those places, if I can remember any other places from home I'll let you know. But as for me living here in Oregon is so different than home and lots of places here are still unopened and also recovering from the snowstorm we had a couple weeks ago. Some places don't have power still yet. But lucky for me, I have power so I've been cooking at home for the most part and have gotten pretty creative. Anyway, I'm on FB and IG if you want to add we can share some good stuff and can let you know about places up here. Ok hope to gear from you guys soon, aloha🤙🤙

[@roquetayama6858]

Amanda and Felix you both are the first local foodies I have run into on my KZbin page which has been a fun ride. Pipeline malasadas in my opinion is way better than Leonard's bakery. Thank you for all the local places you have both put a spotlight on.

[@AmandaFelixEats]

Thank you for such kind words! We definitely need to try their malasadas next time! Mahalo for watching🤙🏼

Aloha Amanda & Felix! Mahalo for the birthday wishes, you both are very kind. Photo Luke has a great channel too. For people like me who do not live in Hawaii and was unable to go out there in 2020 due to the pandemic, I feel as though I'm right there with you both with watching your vlogs (it warms the heart), even my 90 yr old Mom watches your vlogs along with me (we would love to meet you both when we are out there in December!). I've tried the Pipeline Bakery cake bomb and it was so ono, it almost tasted as if the cake, especially the bottom was soaked in honey or some kind of sugar syrup (I had ordered online and had it shipped to me a few months ago), I don't remember all of the flavors ordered, but I think the guava one was my favorite. I could never understand why some restaurant establishments would not want free advertisement of their place, but I appreciate the fact that you respect their wishes with not showing them in your vlogs and/or mentioning their restaurant name. As always, look forward to your next vlog!

[@AmandaFelixEats]

[@morrismiyabara9170]

That pork belly bowl looks so ono. When I was a kid in Hanalei my mother used to make something called kau yook with pork belly and in between the slices of pork belly was slices of potato and I haven't yet figured out the sauce that was over it. I've got to learn how to make that dish. I need a local cookbook. Maybe it's in there. What you & Felix were chomping down sure looks good. Mahalo.

Because of you folks... my curiosity was piqued and I went to the (no can mention / "no name") Bahn Mi place on Waialae. 🤣🤣🤣 I ordered 3 different Bahn Mi to do my own taste test review. HOLY MOLY!!! Let me just say... quoting the Terminator... "I'll be back!" 😋😋😋 Seriously, your viewers should check out this place. Even if they didn't want you to video record... pictures would have sufficed for you to do your review. Just say'in. ??? Anyway, Mahalo for not mentioning the "No Name BBQ" bahn mi place... it was ONO Delicious. 😋❤😋❤😋❤ Just wanted to add... Yup! I agree. Pipeline Bakeshop & Creamery is the BOMB. They're gosh darn awesome! Their peanut butter cookies are crazy delicious! Their malasadas are lightly crispy on the outside, and super soft and fluffy on the in inside. Absolutely heavenly. 😋❤😋❤😋❤

Don't get out to the Kaimuki area very much, but one place I'd recommend in the area is Diamond Head Market and Grill. Try the portobello mushroom burger or the plate lunch at the drive in window. Or inside the market any of their scones and the lemon crunch cake. Actually all their desserts are really good!! Give them a try if you already haven't.

[@AmandaFelixEats]

Whenever we go to Diamond Head Market I cannot leave without a scone! Been going there since they opened after the burger/plate lunch place that was there before them when I was a kid! Mahalo for watching🤙🏼

[@Erhnam_Djinn]

I know exactly which banh mi place on Waialae you guys were talking about. Their sandwiches are actually pretty good though, but shave ice not so much. Also, imo, Pipeline has the best malasadas on the entire island, and the Saigon's Restaurant you guys passed at 2:31 is the best value for Viet food in Kaimuki, including $6.50 banh mis. Source: I live just off Waialae.

[@AmandaFelixEats]

You convinced us to try Saigon's restaurant!😆 But when we called to order the banh mi they said they don't do banh mi's on sundays😭 Guess we gotta try again some other time😆 lol

[@Erhnam_Djinn]

@@AmandaFelixEats The quality of the food is average, but the prices are really low. As long as you understand what they are bringing to the table and aren't expecting the best food, you'll be satisfied and save a few dollars every time you eat there compared to other Vietnamese restaurants in the area.

[@ChopChopsBabyHuey]

Saigon's Restaurant next to Pipeline is one of my all-time favorite. They are super friendly... I love them and their food. * Spicy Lemongrass Chicken Sandwich * Oxtail Soup * Summer Rolls (sauce for it is so good) * Coconut/Haupia Tapioca Pudding I truly love this place... the food and the owners. ❤😋🤙

That bahn mi place with “No Name;” it’s a shame they didn’t let you film cause their sandwiches are awesome.

[@ChopChopsBabyHuey]

I agree. The (No Name BBQ) bahn mi place is GOOD. The ironic thing is... I checked out this place because of Amanda & Felix. If they didn't make it such a mystery of this no-can-mention place, it wouldn't have piqued my interest to find and research this (No Name BBQ) business. This place has Super high reviews on Yelp, and after trying 3 of their Bahn Mi, I totally agree with you and Yelp reviews. 😋😋😋 5 Shaka rating 🤙🤙🤙🤙🤙

[@zbboyfreeze]

@@AmandaFelixEats Thank you. That is sad. Hopefully they will open back up soon. I would love to try what you guys had tried.

[@score2high]

Have the two of you reviewed the malasada from Pipeline? My wife and I tried the malasada there back in 2017 because I read that the owner got her start at Leonard's. However, we were so disappointed because the malasada tasted like it was fried in really old oil. I'd like to give them a try again, especially for that cake bomb. But convincing my wife to go back there will be a challenge. I know that park really well. Kapaolono Park. Used to play our Senior Little League games there. Also where the Waialae AJA team used to practice. Oh yeah, Mackey Feary used to hang out there, too. Of course this was way before he became famous.

[@AmandaFelixEats]

We have not tried their malasadas yet! Some people in comments are recommending it so we'll probably try it next time! Every time we've gotten their cake bomb we have not been disappointed so hopefully you can give the cake bomb a try! 🤤 I've spent many summers at summer fun and lots of swimming lessons at Kapaolono Park! Mahalo for watching🤙🏼

[@subarashiisugoi8655]

Hey guys, thank you for letting me know about Kawaii Bowls! Missed the pork bowls from Your Kitchen. Interesting, but I can't find the Kawaii Bowls website or on Yelp. About that egg. It's not tempura. In Japanese it is, "Hanjuku tamago fry", or in english, "half-cooked egg fry". A shrimp tempura has that flour coating. But when it has panko on it instead of the flour, the Japanese call that 'ebi fry'. So that katsu-style egg would be an egg 'fry', not tempura. To me Pipeline has the best haupia ice cream. It's the bomb!

[@AmandaFelixEats]

Wow, you would think Pipeline would like the fee advertising.

[@MarkCMoran]

I don't think it was Pipeline. It was some Bahn Mi place. They didn't share the name or any videos/photos from the place.

[@howzit9397]

Well no matter what business it is if you don’t want the customer to video or mention the business then you can only assume something shady is happening there OR if you give a bad review they don’t want anyone to know it was bad! But I don’t see why you wouldn’t want free advertisement and if it’s good it’s better for business! Why open a business if you don’t want anyone to know about it? I’ll skip it!

[@donneone]

@@howzit9397 I have the same thoughts, something is strange. Another place they went did the same. Makes me suspicious that the owners are hiding from someone and just want to get by.

[@ChopChopsBabyHuey]

@@howzit9397 Because of Amanda & Felix hinting of this place, it piqued my interest, so I researched and found the (not named/no name) place. Then, I went and ordered 3 of their bahn mi, to do my own taste testing... they were all DARN GOOD. But my favorite was the BBQ Pork Bahn Mi. What was also nice, was the people/workers there were very pleasant. They kept thanking me for my business. I would highly recommended this place. 🤙🤙🤙🤙🤙 (5 Shaka rating) This (No Name BBQ) bahn mi place has super high reviews on Yelp, so hopefully, you'll reconsider your decision and check this place out for yourself, because they are worth trying. Also, according to this video post from Amanda & Felix, the "worker" was okay with them taking pictures, it was due to the owner not being present that she didn't allow them to video record. I'm sure the owner is SUPER UNHAPPY with the worker's boneheaded call 😬... who knows? she may have been fired.🤷‍♀️ In any case, Amanda and Felix still could have done the review with pictures of the place, but they chose not to for their own personal reasons. And, by them mentioning that weren't going do a review, as well as hinting they way they did of this place, viewers could either choose to research and check this place out for themselves, as I did, Or NOT... all because this place (worker) not allowing them to record a video. 🙄 It will be extremely sad if a local business is tarnished due to a mistake or misunderstanding... which totally goes against supporting local businesses. I can understand if a business totally sucks... but after trying "No Name BBQ" for myself, they are far from being sucky. The high reviews on Yelp are accurate. This place is worth checking out. Anyway, I hope in the future Amanda & Felix will reconsider their stance on not reviewing an establishment just because they don't allow them to video record... pictures are known to be worth a thousand words. 😊🤙

Kawaii means cute in Japanese , it’s pronounced ka-wa-eee. But good job describing da grub.

Why would a restaurant not want free advertising? Sounds sketchy...

According to this video post from Amanda & Felix, the "worker" was okay with them taking pictures, it was due to the owner not being present that she didn't allow them to video record. I'm sure the owner is SUPER UNHAPPY with the worker's boneheaded call. 😬 In any case, Amanda and Felix still could have done the review with pictures of the place, but they chose not to for their own personal reasons. And, by them mentioning that they weren't going do a review, as well as hinting they way they did of this place, viewers could either choose to research and check this place out for themselves, as I did, Or NOT... all because this place (worker) not allowing them to record a video. 🙄 It will be extremely sad if a local business is tarnished due to a mistake or misunderstanding... which totally goes against supporting local businesses. I can understand if a business totally sucks... but after trying "No Name BBQ" for myself, they are far from being sucky. The high reviews on Yelp are accurate. This place is worth checking out. Anyway, I hope in the future Amanda & Felix will reconsider their stance on not reviewing an establishment just because they don't allow them to video record... pictures are known to be worth a thousand words. 😊🤙 I also watch other local KZbin content creators, that do food/eatery reviews, and they too have been told not video record, and even NO pictures, but that didn't stop them from doing an honest review. Personally, I respect that.

that first bowl looks like a bunch of flab.

What does pipeline have to hide. Only a fool would not let you film

[@AmandaFelixEats]

It was actually a different shop that served sandwiches. We did not include them in the video out of respect for their privacy.

[@ChopChopsBabyHuey]

@@AmandaFelixEats I thought you said they were okay with pictures just not video because the owner wasn't there? Pictures would have been fine to do a review.

[@AmandaFelixEats]

@@ChopChopsBabyHuey We were busy taking videos while in the shop and they told us not to use our videos after we paid and was about to leave the store... didn't feel right to stay in there after the fact taking pictures after they clearly told us not to film.. so we left without pictures.

[@ChopChopsBabyHuey]

@@AmandaFelixEats while editing, couldn't you have turned video footage into pictures? Hey, I completely support you over your prerogative not to feature a business for whatever reason you choose. But to hint about a business and not review them with the explanation you gave, which then lead some of your viewers to make "shady" comments... 😬 (cringe) You folks are fortunate to have a well deserved large following, as well as a strong influence on your viewers, which is pretty powerful stuff to promote a business, but it can also hurt a business as well. If the food or service sucks, they should get a harsh review. However, something that has nothing to do with the food or service, such as not allowing video to be taken, then indirectly have viewers pass judgement on an establishment over video allowance, is kind of counterproductive in supporting local businesses. And, it obviously shows how an image of an establishment can easily be tarnished over a mistake or misunderstanding, especially in this case by a boneheaded employee... not the business owner. 😬 I was mainly disturbed by some of the "shady" comments, or anything that implied a tarnishing remark by your viewers, as well as you supporting them with a ❤. Over video vs. pictures? Yikes! So, for example, because of your review on Kuhio Grill, I went there with excitement to try their food, and especially to experience their super friendly (Hilo-Style) service. Let me just say, I did not get the same experience from the same person that helped you. She was not at all upbeat as she was in your video, and did not help me open the door when I was trying carry out a huge box with a heavy load of plate lunches that I picked up for my family... there was no other customers in the place other than me... she may have been having a bad day...🤷‍♀️ I still gave them a 22% tip, which came out to about $27. Did they deserve the tip? Maybe not for this particular day, but I don't want to have one off day be my final judgement, as well as not doing my part in supporting a local business. I'll will go back and try again on another day... hopefully, I'll get your kind of special treatment on my next visit. 🤞 My point, I was influenced my your review, I didn't get what I was expecting, but I didn't hold it against them for this one off incident. I'll be fair and try them out again. Sooo... maybe give NO NAME BBQ a second chance... just a friendly suggestion... 🤷‍♀️... because my experience there was far different from what you experienced... I took a lot of pictures, but I think they WOULD have allowed me to take video too. I only took pictures because I was sending them via messenger and text to my friends, family and co-workers... that's one of my ways for contributing in supporting local business. Plus, I have a big mouth for food and to spread the word via coconut wireless. 🤣 Anyway, just wanted to say, I truly enjoy watching your videos, and lots of times I have cracked up over your humorous and entertaining demeanor. So please don't think I'm hating on you. I'm just sharing my thoughts and opinion. 😊🤙

[@AmandaFelixEats]

@@ChopChopsBabyHuey Thank you for your honesty and respect, we really appreciate your support and your passion for supporting local businesses. We're sorry you had that bad experience at Kuhio grill... but like you said sometimes even establishments have their off days. As for the pictures we could have made them into stills, however, when an establishment makes it a point to tell us they don't want us to film we take that very seriously. We don't want any altercations after the fact so we take extra precaution and rather just scrap the whole footage itself. In the end, this is a vlog of our foodie adventure so we try to be transparent about our experiences so we mentioned what happened to us. We didn't want to directly throw shade at any establishment and left it to our viewers imagination to think what they want to think. People will make shady comments no matter what, so we came to the conclusion that keeping it vague was the most friendly. At the end of the day, they didn't want us to film so the next time we feature sandwiches it's gonna have to be some place else. We are fairly new to this KZbin platform and every video is a learning experience for us. Honestly speaking, Hawaii's food establishments are still trying to understand KZbin/social media and the effects of it on their business, so hopefully one day this establishment will be ok with filming in the future.

[@mattncrys7742]

Some sad they treated you guys like that after the fact you paid. Here you are supporting local if only they know your platform would bring them business. Sucks to be them.

According to Amanda & Felix, this business (worker) was okay with pictures, just not video because the owner wasn't there... which the owner is probably P.O. about this worker's boneheaded call. However, Amanda & Felix still could have done their review with pictures of the place. I've watched another local KZbin content creator that does food/eateries get asked not to film or take pictures, and still she highlighted the business, and did a honest review. Amanda & Felix could have handled it the same way. Just saying, it didn't have to be a no-go to do a review of the food and business. And, I did check out this place because of Amanda & Felix's video. I did my research... high reviews on Yelp... had 3 of their (No Name BBQ) bahn mi... I fully agree with the high Yelp reviews. 😋👍🤙❤
