    It's different watching a host eat all the food and not describe it. He's just enjoying it!

      Right!? Nice to watch them eat without saying "you get that garlicky flavor from the garlic, and the onion flavor from the onions!" "It's so creamy from the creamy we added"

    watching two local boys tasting the broth and their reaction is classic. all facial expressions and sounds, not words, just sounds of approval and amazement. its a
    "broke da mout" and "woop yo jaws" moment. nice piece.

    On this video you just made Mr.Simeon and the conversation you were having was really deep and true to the islands. This generation today is missing that totally. I grew up in Oahu, Kalihi to be exact my whole life was growing up in low income housing and we learned to live off the Aina our neighbors would share with everyone what we caught at the beach, hunting etc...Today this generation is sad really sad. Great videos keep up the good work, aloha brahdah Simeon.

    My dad was a merchant marine and during a trans-Pacific trips in the 70's he had a heart attack. He was medevac to Honolulu to that great big pink hospital (Tripler Hospital) where he had a triple bypass. I was really young at the time but my whole family at the time went to Honolulu. It was sorta weird because we visited dad in the morning, eat breakfast at the cafeteria, and went site seeing in the afternoon.

      Derptrollz - They're speaking what we call pidgin in Hawaii. It's derived from all the different ethnic groups that came to the islands to work the plantations along with the indigenous Hawaiian people trying to communicate. Basically it's the broken English of each ethnic group combined and it created a language all its own. If you listen to the older generation talk, you can hear words from Japanese, Korean, Chinese, Hawaiian, Portuguese, Puerto Rican, Filipino all used as they "talk story" as we say in Hawaii. Look up Andy Bumatai on RUclips. He's a local comedian that talks pidgin. You'll find it interesting.

    My husband and I just made dinner reservation at the pig and the lady but after watching this video I am having second thoughts about eating at a restaurant (knowing my health codes for food establishments) where the chef would allow someone to take the spoon that the person just drank from back into the ladle and the pot. It's very unsanitary. Hope this is not the norm. I'm a major foodie and quite a picky one. Plus following sanitary cooking practice for the public is very important.

If you're gonna lie don't make it obvious and stfu. Don't even talk about France.
