My great grandmother was known as the Chow Fun lady. She came to Hawaii around 1875. She made her own chow fun noodles and went door to door selling her chow fun dish. I was told that she was the first to have chow fun in Hawaii.
I remember back in my youth growing up in Hawaii, we use to rush to the local Okazuyas to get some Chow Fun before they ran out! Miss those days!! Life was so much simpler back then. 😘🤙🏽🌺
We used to get chow funn regularly as a school lunch at Roosevelt High School in 1957. It is my most memorable school lunch, with beef or char siu. I need to know how to make this. Gotta use the Hilo noodles, though!
I remember buying "fried noodles" and "pork hash/shumai" from the manapua man back in the 80s, when I used to visit my cousin in Ewa when it still had a lot of people living there, before all the new houses.
Ono lishes !! I just made it for my pot luck. But don't know how the other people will like it . But hey i love so that is all good for me. Thank you for sharing. I use ham and cole slaw veg. Yummy.
You know whats great about chow fun is that there's less vegetables in it. Us noodle lovers love that. You're changing the traditional integrity of chow fun. You're not making pancit or chow mein dishes, which you can then add all those vegies. Adding veggies is a cheap add, so why insult chinese cooks...are u not an asian? Perhaps you should review the Aloha spirit.
Thanks for a great recipe! I agree that Chinese restaurants skimp on the veggies. We can put as much as we want to make it both delicious and nutritious!!
Reminds me of the hawkers in my home Singapore and when I visited my sister in Kaneohe I do miss the food But sure am going to try your recipe...thank you 👏👏🇬🇧🇬🇧
Dear friend, Thank you very much for sharing that cooking recipe with us. I enjoyed watching it. As a subscriber, I should appreciate if you can demonstrate us how to cook "Chicken Magic Bowl" (Le Bol Renversé Poulet). It is a Sino-Mauritian recipe gaining popularity whereby to prepare it: One puts chopped chives at the bottom of the bowl. Then one adds a poached egg with the shinny liquid egg yolk facing down the bottom of the bowl. Afterwards adds the chicken chop suey. Next one heaps up the rest of the bowl with steamed rice. Finally one covers the bowl with a cooking plate, rotates the bowl 180 degrees and removes the bowl. The difficult part of the recipe is to prepare the sauce. I hope that you can show us the secret to preparing the sauce.
looks terrif I'll be trying this soon. I finally went to foodland today and saw the Sun noodles, bought the saimin, but resolved to find a chow fun vid & found it! I knew what the ingredients were, having ordered it since I was a kid (5cents chow fun and 5 cents salad) after school, but my dad never cooked it. As okazu places close, our ability to just buy it gets less and less.
You all prolly dont give a shit but does someone know a way to get back into an instagram account?? I was stupid forgot the password. I appreciate any assistance you can offer me
@Randy Bowie I really appreciate your reply. I found the site through google and im trying it out now. I see it takes a while so I will get back to you later when my account password hopefully is recovered.
The comment about Chinese making plenty money is a bit racist, even though that may not have been your intent. I might suggest not disparaging the fact that the ingredients are fewer at a Chinese restaurants and compare yours as "fully loaded." Many cultures like to keep the ingredients simple just to let the star of the dish (in this case the noodles) sing. Still, recipe looks interesting. Its definitely not how I learned to make it. I'll give it a try.

I used to get my chow fun from Libbys in Kalihi back in the days.
Where was Libby's? I used to live on on Kalani St. near Puuhale Rd.
Right off Nimitz Hwy,just before Puuhale Rd. I believe. But I heard they finally closed the doors maybe 3 years ago.
@@martinquintana5837 Probably near Goo's Auto Shop. He had a yellow car mounted high up for everyone to see.
Very good instructions👌🏽
The Hula brand noodles and i dont get along for some reason lol so i love using the refridgerated ready to cook brand chowfun noodles 👌🏽
Reminds me of the hawkers in my home Singapore and when I visited my sister in Kaneohe
I do miss the food
But sure am going to try your recipe...thank you 👏👏🇬🇧🇬🇧
where is the spam?
You can add it all at once
Yummy:) I miss home.
Their idea of easy is waaay different than mine. Looks great 😊
What kind of chef you. You gotta use the fresh chow fun noodles
Are you using a non stick pan on high heat? I was told its not good , it can ruin the pan and could be toxic.
I like it with big pieces of onion
Is Chow Fun made with wide rice noodles ?
Hay quá
looks awesome, did you forget to add the white onions?
It’s always green onions never round onions for chow fun.
Awesome video guys. Keep it up.
hey chef can you make char siu? I moved from the islands and can't find any around where I live.
Where is the garlic and chiles?

It's like fried rice. Use whatever you want.
Looks delicious. Shame for the audio again! I heard her clearly though, just not him.
Lots of onion please
Couldn’t find bean sprouts today, so I used head cabbage, was ono😉😜
Use big pieces of onion
"How that veg looking?"
2:49, what a racist thing to say about Chinese people? Can’t stand this guy. Foodland endorses this type of behavior? Pretty sad.
Waya you ben, every Nationality in Hawaii tease each udda. No mean noting just fun ..Chow Fun dat is...

He's Chinese.
Who buys pre cooked noodles?
Pot sticker dip hot Chinese mustard
I would eat that entire bowl if I eat meat
Wow he so technical...damn it just cook the god damn thing
ypu're so right= too much talking
good procedure though although no measurements and just guessing
you ate chinese food at a bon dance? i dont think so.
🤣🤣🤣 truth
Chow fun is one of the best things at the Kula, Maui bon-dance ever since I was a child.
This team seems reasonably knowledgeable, but the guy literally talks TOO MUCH ‼️‼️
Can't hear a word the cook is saying but the helper you can smh!
I can hear him loud and clear.
this is the worst chow fun ive ever seen in my life two thumbs down!
