Lunch at Wayfare Tavern

June 18th, 2011 by Jonas / Filed under American, Food / Leave A Comment

Getting a seat at Wayfare Tavern isn’t the easiest thing to do, but it’s actually not too busy during a Saturday lunch. The menu is the same as their dinner menu, so if you don’t mind having your heavy full-on meal during the day, then check it out. Tyler Florence’s signature fried chicken is okay, [...]

Must Eat The Whole Sha-Bang at The Boiling Crab

February 1st, 2011 by Jonas / Filed under Cajun/Creole, Food, Must Eat / Leave A Comment

Driving 45 minutes to San Jose and standing 45 minutes in line for The Boiling Crab was worth it. They offer three types of seasoning for the seafood, but there’s really one obvious choice – the whole sha-bang, which is a combination of everything. My favorite was the crab – big and meaty. The shrimps [...]

Must Eat Crawfish at Red Crawfish

November 29th, 2010 by Jonas / Filed under Cajun/Creole, Food, Must Eat / Leave A Comment

Like crawfish? Check out Red Crawfish in the Tenderloin and order them by the pound to whatever spiciness level you prefer. Like crawfish but too lazy to crack them open? Order their gumbo – the crawfish is de-shelled in there, plus they make some mean gumbo! Pass on the garlic noodles, unless you’re looking for [...]

Must Eat Azuki Bean Shaved Ice at Waiola Shave Ice

November 7th, 2010 by Jonas / Filed under Dessert, Food, Hawaii, Hawaiian, Must Eat, Travels / Leave A Comment

The shaved ice at Waiola Shave Ice is to die for! Unlike many places out there that serves shaved ice on the crunchy side, Waiola serves it like fresh puffs of snow in your mouth and in different flavors. My favorite so far is their azuki bean and mochi with condensed milk shaved ice. This [...]

Omakase at Morimoto Waikiki

November 6th, 2010 by Jonas / Filed under Food, Fusion / Leave A Comment

My very last meal before leaving Hawaii was at Morimoto Waikiki. It was a very chic place – as if I was in LA – but the food didn’t live up to the name. For $70, I got a 7-course meal, everything looking pretty, some items standing out more than others, but overall, I expected [...]

Dole Whip at Dole Plantation

November 5th, 2010 by Jonas / Filed under Dessert, Food, Hawaii, Travels / Leave A Comment

Funny thing happened. We went to the Dole Plantation and got there right when they closed! On the bright side, I was still able at least try their famous Dole Whip in soft serve ice cream form. It was very fresh and a nice treat in the Hawaiian heat (even though it wasn’t that hot [...]

Shaved Ice at Matsumoto’s Grocery Store

November 3rd, 2010 by Jonas / Filed under Dessert, Food, Hawaii, Travels / Leave A Comment

There’s a debate going on in Hawaii of where the best shaved ice is. One of the candidates is Matsumoto’s Grocery Store. The portion is huge, price is low, and there’s always a long line. It’s out of the way, though, for most people who are usually in Honolulu because Matsumoto’s is all the way [...]

Must Eat Prawns at Romy’s Kahuku Prawns & Shrimp, Inc.

November 3rd, 2010 by Jonas / Filed under Food, Hawaii, Must Eat, Street Food, Travels / Leave A Comment

While I still think that the whole shrimp truck trend is overrated in Hawaii, I did still enjoy Romy’s Kahuku Prawns & Shrimp, Inc., located just a little bit north of Giovanni’s. They serve prawns, nice and fresh, and the prawns come with their heads, so you’re not missing any of the good parts.

Shrimp Scampi at Giovanni’s Shrimp Truck

November 3rd, 2010 by Jonas / Filed under Food, Hawaii, Street Food, Travels / Leave A Comment

I don’t understand what all the hype is about with Giovanni’s Shrimp Truck. I mean, yeah, the shrimps were good, especially the shrimp scampi with all that garlic, but I don’t think it’s worth going out of the way for and paying about $1 a piece. They weren’t even prawns! Still, just because this is [...]
