AMYLU CARAMELIZED ONION & AGED WHITE CHEDDAR CHICKEN BURGERS

DINNER AT HOME

Surprised how affordable and tasty these little Charbroiled Chicken Burgers were.  Actually pretty good and very low carb.  Used a low carb bun too.  Wife really liked them so I guess these will be in the freezer quite often.

SECOND TIME EATING THESE AND I LIKED THEM EVEN MORE

Love the Crew and food at Kau Kau Grill.  Probably the Best BBQ Ribs and Poke on the Island.  They only serve fresh Poke here and none of that chemically treated crap you get at most restaurants.  The Ribs are meaty, smokey, sweet, fall off the bone delicious!

Spending more time in Maui the next few months as we move our warehouse and open a larger facility.  Enjoyed Amigo's for lunch in Kahului.  The Shredded Beef Taco and Shredded Beef Enchilada were really good.  Loved the Red and Green Salsas too.  The Green Salsa had more flavor and heat.  Loved it.  Would not hesitate to return here and I know I will.

SWEET AND SOUR PORK

DINNER AT HOME

My Wife's homemade Sweet and Sour Pork is so much lighter, fresher and tastier than any Chinese restaurant I have been to in Hawaii.  You can really taste the Pork and the Vegetables pop with flavor and a bit of crisp.  Love this!

Another delicious, satisfying and happy meal at Side Street Inn.  I love this place!  The food here rocks.  Definitely on my Top 10 list of fave restaurants on Oahu.  We took an International College student that does website and marketing work for me.  She has four roommates so we ordered large so she could have plenty to take home.  If you have never been here, I recommend ordering Chef Colin's Classics to start.  We added the Whole Steamed Snapper Chinese Style to our order.  For dessert, you gotta try the Chocolate Peanut Butter Bars and Chocolate Brownie.  The most moist and delicious Brownie on Oahu.  Wow!

Another amazing dinner at home compliments of my Wife.  She is on a roll cooking up great dinners and I don't want it to stop.  This Miso Glazed Salmon was restaurant quality and full of flavor.  The Salmon was caught in Alaska by our friends and brought back to Hawaii.  Served with Grilled Bok Choy with a bit of spice.  Delicious!

I have no idea what my Wife put into this dish, but holy cow it was unbelievable.  Spicy hot to where you could not stop eating it despite the heat.  Flavor was amazing.  This was better than any Chinese restaurant in Hawaii or maybe even the mainland.  Definitely going on my favorite home cooked meal list!

This Lamb and Beef Salad from Doner Shack was so good that I ordered another one within less than a week.  Absolutuly delicious and now one of my favorite salads in Hawaii.  I keep it low carb with no Pita bread and don't miss the carbs at all.

Don't know what it was, my hunger or the food was just delicious on this day.  Really loved this lunch at Mangiamo by 604.  Pasta was cooked perfectly with a light and tasty sauce.  Pizza while not as crispy as I like was really good.  I will be back!

This meal solidified Morimoto Asia as one of my favorite restaurants in Waikiki.  Absolutely loved everything we ate here.  Bold flavors and spices that made every dish a winner.  Please eat family style here so you can enjoy a variety of dishes.  Order a bunch of dishes for the table and then dig in and enjoy.  This is an Asian style Side Street Inn experience for me.  The items ordered on this night were the perfect combination and one of my favorite meals ever.  Cannot say what I liked best because everything was great.  Love the Whole Crispy Fish but the Miso Black Cod is the bomb.  The Kung Pao Cauliflower is so good and one of my favorite vegetable dishes ever.  The Sticky Ribs are to die for and the Pork Gyoza makes your taste buds smile.  The Fried Rice goes well with everything so definitely get that.  The Black Pepper Beef is also a must and you will be asking for more when it's all gone.  For dessert the Chocolate Sphere is great to share with the table as are the Doughnuts.  This was pretty much the perfect dinner for me.  Loved it!
