Aloha
This is Hawaii-Lunch
Today we
In Hawaii
In Honolulu
- We came to northen shore - Right
We came up far north
Actually, in the morning
Dole plantation
- We went to a pineapple farm - Yes
That's right
- Now we came to eat lunch - That's right
So today, in the northern..
Near the shore area
There are some small stores
- There are many of them - Yeah yeah yeah
First
We're going to McDonald's
(McDonald's like Lego)
For a smoothie
(We bought a mango pineapple smoothie) This small size
(Paid $4) - It's the same medium size - The size we usually get
(Size up)
(Straw in)
Our small size is really small
It's like the baby size
How is it? The pineapple smoothie
From McDonald's that they don't sell in Hong Kong
How is it?
- Oh, it tastes like fresh fruit - Frozen pineapple
(Tasting)
It feels like something you'd get at a specialty store
- Mmm!! - Mango pineapple, right?
- Really - It's very... very fresh
- Mm~ It's delicious - It's delicious
- It's surprisingly good considering McDonald's quality - Right
(Surprising taste)
In Hong Kong
McDonald's strawberry smoothie
Has a bit
Artificial
Taste
- This one is really fresh - It's fresh fruit
I like it
Yeah
- I really like it - You should try this
If you come to Hawaii
As expected, this is where the original McDonald's is
The US
(Original class)
Now, we're going to the second restaurant
(Already a long line)
Hey, look at this place
There are several food trucks
Actually, they are parked together
That's right
Even the one that's next to
Serve the same shrimp truck
But this waiting line is..
- Just.... - Especially
- This place has a long line - The longest
To get this food
People even drive an hour
- To get here - Exactly
It must be worth it
- Seeing so many people - Yeah
- I'm really curious - So
It must be delicious
(Selected as the best restaurant in Hawaii 2024)
The one who recommended this place
That Korean
Who lives in America
- We met them right away - Wow~~
So thoughtful
Even gave us wet wipes
(Surprised)
(Impressed)
- It looks really delicious - It looks so good
What we ordered is
Scampi
So this
With garlic butter
Like this
Grill the shrimp
Served with rice
This is just two scoops of rice
Next to the shrimp
This is the most popular here, actually
This is the first menu
- Oh~~ the smell - Is it
Made with a prepped shrimp
- Is it without the shell? - Yeah
Yeah, it has a bit of shell, but..
It's really easy to peel
And the portion is really big
How many shrimps are there?
Seems like about 10
- Exactly - There really are about ten of them
Is it really worth driving an hour for this
And coming back again
How delicious is this shrimp that people are willing to do that?
How does it taste?
The shrimp is really fresh
Really?
And the seasoning isn't too strong
(Satisfied)
So you can fully taste the shrimp
That's the point
(Just shrimp)
Mixed with garlic
There's no fishy taste at all
- The rice is a bit watery - Yeah, yeah
It feels like sticky rice
And a bit of... garlic
Some ground garlic
The taste is really good
(Humming)
- Unbelievable - Delicious, right?
You love shrimp
It's really delicious
It feels like a different class
It's really fresh
I told you, the shrimp... the shrimp is really fresh
Even in Hong Kong
There are lots of fresh
Seafood options
We eat a lot of shrimp
(Benefit of living near the sea)
This shrimp is really delicious
This garlic rice is also really good
Yeah
It's soaked in oil
(Fly disturbing meal)
But
The flies flying around are a bit of a downside
(Uninvited guest)
Since there's a lot of food
And we're outdoors...
But this is really delicious
Yeah
Among the shrimp we've tried
This is almost the top...
Probably in the top 1
As expected, recommended by a local
Living in the U.S...
It's really worth it
(Paid $22) It was totally satisfying
(Agreed)
I was a bit surprised, actually
- The quality was so good - Really
- It was fresh - Shrimp
Now the second
Course is cleared
Going to eat at the third course
Right
- It was almost like a food tour - Exactly
(3 minutes walk)
(Aura of a famous restaurant)
(Clean interior)
(Busy kitchen)
(Waiting to order)
2 fish
2 poke
2 sides
And there are toppings, too
They close at 4, we barely made it
Just in time
So lucky
But there are so many people
Do you want this and this?
Then we'll have Niniku Goma and
Shoyu Salmon, please
(Ordering sides) Tofu and
We'll also order beans
Just 4 items
Wow, it's fancy
(Automatic admiration)
There is crab meat
This is salmon
- Yeah - This one is tuna
- Yeah - They are all packed together
There is creamy sauce and beans
- Tofu - And tofu
How do you eat this?
I think you just eat it like this?
Is this crab meat included?
Included by default?
Here, uh.. here
(One bite of crab salad)
(Humming)
It tastes good and fresh
But a bit sweet
You just had the salad
Yeah
Just crab salad
That's why it was sweet
But aren't you supposed to mix them?
Mix all this?
Completely mixing all together might be
A bit difficult
I think we should just scoop it out without mixing
It's delicious
Somehow the quantity
seems much more abundant
And here
It's a bit sweet
Yeah.. right, right, right
It wasn't just the crab meat
There is a slight sweet taste
That's Shoyu salmon
Shoyu salmon
With soy sauce
And a bit of ginger
Overall, the flavor of the sauce seems a bit simple
It should be perfect with rice
- Yeah - But without rice, it's too sweet and strong
(American taste)
I always feel that they serve it in large portions
Basically, if you choose
You get 5 sides on top
And the rice is packed at the bottom
This
is not a single serving, in my opinion
(Doubtful)
It's at least for two people
Two people should come and share one
The one person who got left alone
Until the end
Yes
Very good
The price now
(25,000 won) We spent about 19 dollars
Yes, that's right
The one we had yesterday
The poke bowl, which is similar to this
- Yesterday we paid about 18 dollars - The quantity is... right
The portions seem a bit larger
There's also much more to choose from
- It's not salty here, so it's delicious - Not salty
- Much more delicious - Definitely~
After eating the shrimp here
One poke bowl here
- Seems perfect - Is it a set?
(Fantastic combination)
When we enjoy a meal
We should finish off with desserts
There are all kinds of Acai bowl
- There are so many types - Right
And you can add extra toppings
Or just have a smoothie
Hello?
Can we have this one small
Hapa Acai bowl
Yes, of course
Acai bowls are from Brazil
Like a snack
Like a dessert
Oh
So actually, it's very
Also famous elsewhere
- Right - It's my first time trying it
(Surprised)
I've never heard of it before
Just think of it as like
A smoothie in a bowl
Okay
When I was in the UK
- I had it a lot - Really?
It's quite common..
They even sell it in coffee shops..
(Common dessert)
Just now, an American here
- Recommended it - Right
That friend recommended the full course to us
- Yes.. yes - Starting from lunch
Starter
Main
- To dessert - Right
All of them...
We just followed his recommendations
It looks really delicious
- It looks delicious - This is just small size..
The size is indeed
But this can't taste bad
Why do you keep dropping blueberries?
Sorry
(Blueberry lover cries)
What's inside? Why is this purple?
(First bite)
It's a berry smoothie
I think bananas are also included
Just strawberry banana..
- I think they are all mixed together - It's so delicious
And of course, there's granola on top
A little bit
(Fruit party)
Coconut
There's also coconut
Various fruits and cereals
With the smoothie underneath
We don't have much time right now
So we got this to go
That's right
But it seems really fresh
Yes
The fruits are fresh, too
And the smoothie underneath was really delicious
Very delicious
So on the second day in Hawaii
We happened to contact
Someone living in Texas
Yes
I'm happy because we had a very delicious lunch
That's right
With the help
With the help from a friend
We had such a
Delicious lunch
So we will come back with more delicious
