Two ways to build a brand. Some folks purchase one, advertise and hope it gains traction. But others keep their nose to the grindstone, do the work day-in day-out and a brand emerges from their labor. The latter, my friend, is you.

I found myself nodding along while listening to Zippy's explanation for why they wanted to work with you, and I'm sure many of us viewers agreed with what they had to say! Your videos about Hawai'i, its culture, its problems, and its values have helped me make friends here in Hawai'i after moving here from the mainland. I'm always going to be from the mainland, but listening to your videos helped me to be a little more in tune with the stories and perspectives of local people. I would absolutely call your channel a community resource, and you should be proud of what you've accomplished here. Now go treat yourself to some mochizadas!
Zippy’s likes you because they can easily see you’re genuine. Your heartfelt love of Hawaii comes from deep emotion and joy, not a superficial feeling. I’m in Cali, have been to Oahu 3 times. 6 months ago, our first place to eat was the Zippy’s on Kapahulu Ave. and I had your favorite Zip Pac. Man, it was a delicious breakfast! Thanks for introducing Zippy’s to me. And do you know where the Zippy’s is in Vegas? I went there a month ago but didn’t see one. Thanks.

Thanks, Chris! I always feel you like you share “real life”. Zippy’s was our “go to”…when we lived in Honolulu. Miss it, but inevitably make at least one stop there when we fly over from Kaua’i.
Too true. Zippy's was smart from the startup as there were few locations in the 60's that were all night locations that didn't matter what the customer wore. Inside or outside, it was there, even when it was only the McCully Branch of Zippy's. Then, they expanded with Ala Moana, Pali, Makiki, Kapahulu, Kaneohe, Kailua, Aiea, and other locations. Having staple eats, that they teens age at all hours, and evolving with the lunch/dinner crowd, along with the teens to adults to grand and great parents was smart. It was great, that few awhile, they had the Japanese meals at Ala Moana. So, they were growing. As for content creator, you're doing great and will be supported by the fans. Keep going strong.
Excellent! I absolutely love Zippys and go there everytime I go back to Hawaii. Hearing how astute and aware of their brand is impressive and makes me so proud. I’ve been eating there since I was a kid growing up in Kaneohe. Aloha.
I love zips. It has a special place in my heart with great memories there just like you said… after a football game or a night out with friends late night or a quick stop for dinner. Selling chili for fundraisers. So many choices, all of them good. Chili cheese burrito. Portuguese sausage breakfast sandwich. Saimin. Fried chicken. Zip pac. Sushi. Hamburger steak. Portuguese bean soup. Mac salad. Do bash cake. Naples. They might be a little pricy but it’s good, consistent food, eat at all times of the day or night, so much variety. Fan for life. Appreciate ur videos, I can relate to much of the things you speak about having grown up in Hawai’i.
Alway enjoy your vlogs. Thank you for your insights and opinions. Just came back for a couple of weeks and ate at Zippy"s twice. Heard good things about their Korean fried chicken and it did not disappoint. Saimin is definitely nostalgic for me.
Happy 4 year anniversary to you and your RUclips channel, Chris! I'm so proud of you and seeing your growth on RUclips. May more success come your way on RUclips and in your life.
Your genuineness is amazing about how Hawaii is struggling with high home prices and high rents due to transplants! That was conveyed to us when we were in Hawaii in 2019. That made us sad.
Congratulations on 4 years Chris! It’s always a pleasure to spend a few minutes with you and your family. Keep up the great work (and keep pushing for year round pumpkin pie 😉).
Neat to hear some of your RUclips journey and collaboration with Zippys. Also cool to hear how Zippys has gone about this whole partnering with content creators thing, a different more authentic thought out way than one time sponsorships. Thanks for sharing
It’s very helpful what you are talking and sharing with us. You talk about everything locally. I ❤️ it We learned things about Oahu that I don’t know or was not interested at all But looking back a lot of of your videos make sense Thank you Chris and I love ❤️ zippy
In my own experience, growing up in Hawaii meant being too poor to go to Zippy's and cooking up that S&S saimin with green onion and strips of Spam for my siblings and myself at home.
I have been talking and posting about Hawaii issues for as long as FB existed. From clarifications of Kanaka to Kamaaina statuses to housing crisisʻs. Itʻs sensitive and so many of us have mainland relatives who take offense to what appears as an inclusive culture. Itʻs hard to share everyones perspectives in a fair and balanced way without someone taking offense. You get black balled real quick. I appreciate your videos and relate nearly 100% on every topic you discuss.
Mahalo for sharing. I think it's great that you are trying to discuss these issues, even if some act out online. I think that it's important to have safe places to discuss things in a respectful manner.
Certainly feasting as much as you can is one way to enjoy your ambassadorship, but I am glad you have chosen to be responsible with this benefit and share it with others. Great. ct from SF/CA.
Omg! I miss Zippy’s. Great memories for sure. My favorite is the Zip Pac, I would drop in the Kapahulu one on my way to the beach. I hope one day we can move back to the islands! Mahalo for sharing
It is crazy how expensive it is getting here. I love Zippy's because they're still one of the few places serving great comfort food at a good price. So many restaurants are disappointing now, but I've never been disappointed at Zippy's. Love their chicken katsu.
10:51 Hi Chris , that is a great acknowledgment to you 🤙it’s a feather in your cap ! Keep doing what you are doing to give a tourist like me a great understanding of Hawaii
New Sub here, I'm really looking forward to hearing more about tips for small RUclipsrs especially local RUclipsrs. Love the video! 💕 My family and I love zippys and its so true how important zippys is, its truly our extended family. I actually worked at zippys the Nimitz location, that's where I met my boyfriend three years later we are still together and we have a son together! 🩷 Thanks to zippys.
05:20 Zip-Pak for me too. Always got one on my way home returning from Vegas. The Pak is getting very pricey but still tasty. Nice to see the Zippys in Ewa is open 24 hours during the weekend.
The only thing I wish from Zippys is for them to reduce their prices. Other than that, when coming back from the mainland for my annual vacations (over 10 years), one of the first things that came to mind was "Let's go to Zippys!" I've been back in Hawaii for a few decades now, and local food just blows my mind.
Cousin, I wish for pumpkin all year round, but it's not a thing. Zippy's is such an interesting restaurant model around great food at an affordable price. You one lucky dog for that year. I want more merch from Zippy's
100% I went to Zippy's for oxtail soup just because of one of your videos grateful #grateful 🙏 you are an awesome Creator extremely sincere I always enjoy watching your videos don't ever stop
Loved the video Chris. No one place is the perfect place to live, but Hawai'i is pretty darn close! We do have Zippy's here in Hilo. But, I gotta say, my favorite location used to be the Zippy's on Nimitz Highway cause they made the best Fried Saimin!
I'm watching this a second time. I had a thought about the pumpkin pie. There have been fewer pumpkins for some reason, so Zippys may not be able to obtain enough pumpkin to serve it year round. Wish you could have it more than a month or so a year.
Wish they had some locations on the mainland. I think they are building on in Las Vegas. Will just have to wait to go when I am there in December. Yum.
Ok….now I’m getting hungry. Their Korean chicken salad and zip min saimin is always my favorite. When your passionate about a topic it comes across naturally.
Because of your videos I will definitely be going to Zippys! Trip is coming up soon and once I told my wife they have oxtail soup and that was that! Curious can I tell them Chris sent me? Want you to get the credit since I would have never known about them without your channel.
I agree, spaghetti w/ a side of fried chicken. 'Sounds weird, but it's ono. First meal off the plane, and Zip pac for the plane ride home. And lots of meals in between.
I really want to see a Zippy's come to Seattle, Washington. I have told them this on Twitter, and on Facebook, too. Anything you can do to help Zippy's get to Seattle would be a help to me. I know that Zip's is coming to Vegas, soon, but there are so many Hawaiians and Pacific Islanders living here in Seattle who would also love to see Zip's come to Sea-Town. Yummy food Zippy's has! Chili is the best
OOPS, I have a question for you: Who writes, sings and plays the theme song for your channel? Who also wrote and plays the music at this timepoint, please? 14:00?
Ive been to Waikiki 4 times in the past 5 years and I always wanted to try Zippys. When we went this past summer, friends kept saying we need to try Rainbow Drive In, they said it was amazing so we passed on Zippys and went there. Big mistake because I wasn't a big fan and wish we went to Zippys instead. Next time we go to Waikiki...I'll definitely try it.
@tleeg74 When locals say best plate lunch on the island is Rainbow DriveIn , (I’ve had RainbowDriveIn and was NOT impressed) The only thing I can think of, is because it’s cheap. I’m guessing Best means Cheap in local language.
I used to love and eat at zippy until I started eating better food from all around. Now I can't eat most all the food at zippy cuz it's not delicious. Only stuff i can maybe eat is the korean chicken and the chili. 😢
