If you got a craving for some grinds from a manapua truck, but there’s none in sight, go to T&L Market in Kalihi. They got all the goods from manapua, pork hash, lumpia and fried noodles. They also sell plate lunches that won’t break the bank.

Looks so ono! I just actually ordered Fried Saimin for dinner! Plus regular Saimin soup. Iβll eat leftovers tomorrow, lol. I do want Pork hash & Managua now!
Happy Aloha Friday to you Misty! Your about to hit 5K! ππ
Aloha Misty good review, now Iβm home suckβ¦ Have a good weekend π€π½
Misty, suggestion – when you do your closeup of your items sitting in your car, if you're in the shade, keep the food item in the shade so the exposure is the same. That way the exposure won't be blown out. I also prefer the baked manapua from Royal Kitchen.
Thank you I think you really like the noodles aloha
That's one thing I missed about Hawaii, the Manapua van. My favorite was the pork hash with sriracha. I swear the Sriracha was spicier back then π
Great video Misty! I was looking at them on Yelp and the $5 bento caught my eye. Love those old school places!!!have a good weekend!
Hey Misty, I feel you regarding manapua, but the reason I don't care for them that much is the filling. I hate hate hate when you bite into the filling and get chunks of fat and/or gristle. I've even gagged on that before. If I wanted manapua in the past, I'd go to Libby's because their filling is ground fine so even if it has the same amount of fat and gristle, because it was ground so fine, the texture was easy to take. How was the filling at T&L regarding texture? Looked OK from what you showed us.
Nice video, I really enjoy how relaxed all your videos are and I love the cozy little hole in the wall places that you go to for the cheap eats, always looks so good. Thanks again, have a fun weekend π€π₯π
The price is good. Definitely affordable. The taste tho…need help.
Seeing kalihi videos always get me nostalgic. Makes me wish youtube was around before places like Kennys closed up.

I gain weight watching your videos π everything looks so good! π
Looks good. Manapua looks big π
I love that you always find those hidden gems and mom and pop places to support! Everything looked really good!
Aloha Misty, great food items you shows and all looked very filling as well. Mahalo for showing all of these great hidden gems in Oahu.
Good manapua, pork hash, pepeiao are Very hard to come by since Char Hung Sut closed up shop. Have you ever tried Ying Leong Look Funn Factory, Yat Tung Chow Noodle Factory & Yung Yee Kee Dim Sum. They're the newest manapua/dim sum eatery to open. The other two are Chinatown cornerstone's-lol….ALWAYS appreciate your submissions…..
Hole in the wall places like that have foods better than lots of other places.
Those noodz looked ONO! π And that fried chicken! π€ͺ That is just like I like it! Another great vid.
Iβm a new subscriber from Australia π itβs a dream of mine to be able to go to Hawaii for awesome food and amazing weather. The food looked delicious π€€
Trying to find a good manapua place since Libby's closed
Hey, Misty. When I lived in Moanalua Gardens I used to traverse Middle and School Street and didn't know there was this hidden gem. I grew up when there was a manapua man balancing his to steamers on a long bowed bamboo pole and your video brought back fond memories from my childhood. I totally enjoy your videos and use them when my wife and I are at a loss as to where to go. As a former business development person I totally am into supporting local, especially businesses run by older immigrants who turn out some really ono and affordable grinds. Keep up the great work!
I don't like manapua either b/c I don't like sweet, so I don't eat chasiu or Chinese sausage (lop cheung). I prefer savory meat bao.
Hi Misty. Agree with your 711 pork hash comment π, it's ono. The pork hash at Garden Island Cafe in Waipahu is also very good and it's bigger.
I dont love manapua anymore cuz Libbys and Char Hung Sut decided to ditch the people of Hawaii, how rude!!
Iβm sorry but 7-Eleven pork hash is not good. Itβll do in a pinch but there are better options if youβre willing to find them.
great video miss the manapua man i think hes still in pearlcity noodles n pork hash in a small wax paper bag one day i will go look for him
I used to put shoyu mixed with Chinese hot mustard paste on my noodles, for pork hash, and saimin. I wonder if they even offer this anymore since a bottle of sriracha is cheaper. Plate lunches there is pretty cheap by todayβs takeaway prices. They have a good variety of old school local dishes like chopped steak. A favorite meal of our family . I have yet to hear any other Hawaiβi food vlogger mention chopped steak at other drive-ins or restaurants.
Aloha Misty! Wow, I think 1 small noodles and 1 fried hicken can hold me off for hours at a cost of $5.50 total? At 5:07, I can def hear the crunch! Looks good. Mahalo for ways finding the good cheap eats!ππ€π
π΄π€
Food looks good! I got to try that spot when im in town!
If you're ever in Nashville look me up lol
another worthy recommendation. Appreciate your videos very informative.
Sounds pretty great! Another good video, thanks!
