Where do you get your poke?

12 Upvotes

Still working my way through all the island food since I moved here, and poke is the one thing I still can't get a straight answer on. Ask ten people and you get ten answers: supermarket fish counter (Foodland keeps coming up), the little poke shops, or somewhere I haven't heard of yet. So where do you actually get yours? And is any spot worth a long drive just for the poke?

Eleven at Foodland Ala Moana

I wanted to try their brunch there because it looked like a good deal but just found out today they are closing.

They advertised brunch for $35! Where else can you get a buffet for that price?! Am I missing out on anything if you’ve tried their food? I ate there a while ago, when they first opened but I don’t remember much and I think a recent opinion is warranted. TIA!

What are the best izakayas on Oahu for kakuni braised pork belly and hamachi kama?

I enjoyed Izakaya Nonbei on a Saturday night, and I've heard good things about Bozu. Do you have any other recommendations?

Since I moved here I've been trying to find my go-to saimin spot. I've had a few decent bowls in town but nothing that feels like "the one" yet. Where do you all go, and what do you order with it?

I live nowhere near Hawaii or the west coast and the chances of finding anything local are slim. What’s the best POG juice or best recipe? Where can I order it? I just need help with all the things. Thanks 😊

Anyone know of any good places that serve Meat Jun near my location in Chino Hills, California. I noticed that it is not popular in California but so common in Hawaii.

Recipes

16 Upvotes

I just got back from Oahu the past weekend and I’m wanting to make Galbi, huli Huli chicken and shrimp scampi. Also any copycat recipes for the pineapple slaw from rays and their grandma sauce and a Mac salad. I was wondering if theirs any recipes that are geared toward Hawaiian flavoring vs for example Korean galbi?

Thank you !

I made luau oxtail stew, it's very close to an Italian Ragu. I used a lot of wine and one of the bags of kalo from Foodland. Great way to healthy something up.

I also did mashed potatoes and garlic bread cause I wanted something kinda decadent, wasn't feeling rice for this one. I put a ton of peas in cause I like it that way and the more veggies the better. I use a lot of miso when I make tomato sauce, so I just went a little further with everything, there's a good splash of patis in there. I make it spicy too, really kicks the flavor up. I only use red pepper flakes and cayenne pepper though, that's more than enough for this. It's comfort food, my kids are already getting sick from school, this put them all to sleep lol. This is the first time I made oxtail with kalo, it's an expensive cut of meat.

Any place to get Malasadas around here?

0 Upvotes

So I was in Hawaii back in April and I absolutely fell in love with malasadas (Leonard's and Kamehameha Bakery FTW).

I have a craving for them. Anyone know of a place or bakery in Bergen that sells em? So far I only see places in the city.

Mahalo! 🌊🌊🌴🌴🤙🏾🤙🏾
