Hole in the wall with a giant fridge for all those ingredients!
The best grinds come from the hole in the wall places! That mini bento looked bomb! Great job putting this video together!
Wow that’s looks good and great price thanks so much for sharing your video. Now I’m hungry. Have a good weekend.
Hi Misty, thanks for another great review and for promoting/supporting local mom & pop places. I particularly like the mahi mahi and stuffed bitter melon plates. The stuffed bitter melon with black bean sauce is a Cantonese preparation and is authentic. Yum 😋💕 Hope all is well with you 🙏
Wow, this place is located in a completely industrial area. The menu is so huge too.
Looks yummy, impressed with the presentation Aunty does on these plates. Definitely will visit soon for the bitter melon
Thanks for the intro, as I never heard of Chinese plates lunches; nice change instead of the local food late lunches
Thanks misty… another great video and restaurant recommendation
If you’re in the Hawaii Kai area… just found a new restaurant called Bo Bo Bao near the Hawaii Kai McDonald’s
Homemade manapua
Homemade noodles
Great food
Looking forward to more vids from you
Good job
Aloha Friday Misty!!! That looks delicious!!! Especially the mini, $8.25, brah… mean….
What a deal! Two of the three plates looked delicious. My father-inlaw tricked me into eating bitter melon once. Once was enough. 🤮 Have a great weekend.
Hey Misty, I gotta go try the stuff bittermellon!!! I love that and goya champuru… thanks for sharing!!!🙋🏻♂️
Dam all that looks great 👍 👌 can I move in with thee ? I live in Texas.
You tube got the “older people” demographic right as far as this viewer 😅. Can’t wait to try the stuffed bitter melon. As always, great content. Thank you!
Aloha Misty: This was a great food find in my old neighborhood. That bitter melon plate lunch was really awesome and authentic — they really made a large plate of it. I remember my grandfather used to make the dish with the black bean sauce. One or two pieces of the stuffed bitter melon with some long-grain rice, no Jasmine rice rice in my days, would have made an entire meal for us. I hope you get to try the Ong-choy plate lunch in the future — it must be really interesting to dine-on! 😀. Prices looked reasonable to the grand offerings and large size. Looking forward to your next great vlog. Best wishes to you, your family and frineds! Much 🤙 and 🧧, my fellow 🐯-alumni!
Royal Kitchen has Chinese plate lunches and have stuffed bitter melon.
Bitter melon, you have my attention and subscription! I love it when folks eat….. off grid 😊
I Love homemade bentos ! This place reminds me of a place in Pearl City , called Miki's back in the day ! Food looks delicious ! I Miss local homemade comfort foods ! Misty mahalo for sharing !
Woh!! So many selections for such a small place. My mouth was watering. 🤤🤤🤤. Yes, us oldies are very familiar with stuffed bittermelon. Yummmmmm 😉😊
Hi Misty 😁Long time! Wow, that's some gigantic bittermelon or aunty really stuffed the hell out of it haha. I do admit that I like tartar sauce with my fried mahi and I'm glad you tasted the mac salad even tho not your fav — but that one definitely wasn't the plain old macaroni maynaise kine. Greens was super fresh — no wiltyness there and free. I love chili frank, but gotta be certain kine brand hotdogs (won't say da names because u know (not sponsored) 🤣Appreciate the care aunty takes in preparing these dishes and your honest review. Must say I could tell u were extremely happy with his place and the price! Anyway, miss YT-chattin witchu : ) Been frickin busy at work with not much time for a "real life", but letting u know that I'm still alive lol Take care girl nnn/
Aloha Misty that looked so good not bad for the cost that was a whole lot of food😋😋I hope you are well.
Not your run-of-the-mill plate lunch place. Wow! A great review as usual!
Mmmmm YummmmY!🥂🍷👍
Kalihi is in the house!! Best places for food overall in my opinion. Aloha Misty.. That Bento, wow! Blistering hot dog creamy like Zippys chili, and that crunch in the chicken looks good!!! And that butter sauce looks good on the Garlic Mahi too! The bitter Melon has me curious. I can't say it looks good, but I wouldn't know unless I tried:) and me too, my demographic is older. I think because the long format videos are designed for a more mature crowd. Thanks again for another great video. I'll message you soon🤙 Bumped into Michelle and Jose last night. What a suprise!:) Would like for us to all get together👍
Aloha Misty, mahalo for another great video showcasing local grindz. Have a great weekend!
All of that food looked delicious. That stuffed bittermelon looked really awesome. I love me some stuffed bittermelon!
I gotta head here, i've been craving egg foo young.
Aloha Misty wow the food looks so ono❤good review! I grew up In Kalihi but never ventured out there. Missing home right now.. Have a good weekend 🤙🏽
Such awesome food and prices!
Everything looks good but I love stuffed bittermelon! like you said, its nice to see it in a plate lunch form. Will check it out soon. Mahalo.
Good golly, all the food looks so good.
Bittermelon many ways❤ – stir fried with eggs, stir fried with beef in black bean sauce, and stuffed with pork "meatloaf" & steamed. Not hardcore enough to eat bittermelon soup though. Mahalo for showcasing this place – a plus is that it's near Alicia's Mkt
Wow what a value! Love a good hole in the wall with food cooked with that auntie love. Awesome find 🤙🏽🤙🏽
I love black bean also but not bitter melon. That salt/pepper chkn sure looks great
