Aloha! I don't know what the chances are.. but the day after this video released.. Jrs. Jamaican Jerk in Wahaiwa closed their location😢. BUT.. they will be mobile and posting at different events. Let's support them and hope they get a permanent location. Please follow their Instagram @jrs_jamaican_jerk for future events.🤙
I see Sean your humility is a blessing you have no idea how much business you're bringing to these places for free that they just want to thank you for acknowledging local. You're an outstanding spirit my friend.
You know Sean I love it when Nhi does a commentary on Vietnamese food. Simply because we the viewers are getting the real deal info from a real deal Vietnamese person. Nhi will not stir us wrong and whenever she says "I can tell" I already know Nhi ain't playing with it.
You are awesome Gail!! Mahalo for watching and always supporting us! And.. for watching the whole video! I never expect anyone to watch the whole thing but gravely appreciative that you do!!:):) Hope all is well and Nhi says hi!! Aloha and have a great weekend 👍🤙
I love your content, it just feels like watching a TV show. And you really know all the local grinds everywhere on the island, and this episode heading to the North Shore is epic, starting off at the Waikane store and getting access to that authentic kitchen. Seriously everything after was so mouth-watering! Keep it up Sean and Nhi!
Aloha Lazygirl!! Mahalo for watching and that's one of the best compliments we can have.. is saying is like a TV Show🤙♥️😁. Oh and we were excited to get access to the kitchen. We enjoyed filming and meeting the Waikane Ohana. We appreciate your kind words😁♥️🤙👍
I love this channel and I’m saving my pennies so I can come back to Oahu as a food tourist. First I need to lose my fat from my food tour of West Virginia, Northern Virginia, and Western Maryland. I watched this video and fell asleep and dreamed I was on Oahu eating my way around. 🤪.
Hahaha soo awesome with all the food you've eaten in the states:) With each penny saved.. is one step close to making Oahus dream a reality. Hope you're able to visit soon🤙😋😁
Hi Sean and Nhi 👋 We really enjoyed this food tour ! It’s the places you least expect that deliver great food, the hole in the wall places. Always watching , Cheers Rod and Gem 🤙
Aloha Scott! Haha.. I was def mindful that I had to try stay clean while wearing that white shirt. A d that Ube Pancakes was sooo good😋 Hope the Ohana gets to try it🤙
@@SeanKaleponi I asked my bro and he told me they were around $7.50, which he said was considered a lot then. Teri chicken plate was same as now, with Mac salad scoop rice and a little veggie mix, was so ono. Soda was separate too like now.
Aloha Sean, Nhi, and Baby Kaleponi!! Loved all the eats and happy that we had most of them on our never ending list. A great variety of eats and cultures showcased. We absolutely love banana lumpia aka Turon especially when it has langka (jackfruit) and then topped with some ice cream!! Mahalo as always for taking us along on another onolicious adventure!! Happy Aloha Friday from the mainland!! 🤙🏽🙌🏽
Aloha Michelle and Jose!! When are you guys coming back? Please message me when you guys do. Turon Jackfruit and Ice cream sounds amazing😋🤙 Gonna try it next time..hope all is well guys 😁
Aloha Gail!! It's always great hearing from you!! Now I know you're from San Diego. Learning a little something more about one of Hawaiis most appreciated supporters😁👍🤙 Take care and hope you visit soon🤗
Thank you thank you once again great episode always good content my family and I are always waiting to see what delicious food local food you have to bring from our brothers and sisters from the islands thank you Sean much love and respect.......
Sean, it was SO COOL to see you at our last morning in Oahu this week!! What a thrill to meet you - Greg & I are BIG FANS of your channel! We definitely took a few of your recommendations- unfortunately ran out of time but we'll be back some day. I have to say that your channel is definitely one of the things that gets us through long Boston winters- your enthusiasm is contagious and a great start to our days (we'll often watch your videos while we eat breakfast at home). Aloha & see you soon!!! Judy & Greg
It was great to meet you Judy and Greg!! It was meant to be since it was your last day and I just came back from vacation!:) and no worries.. please keep coming back. I live here and haven't done everything yet😁. Hope all is well in Boston. I love your sports city! And I might have to get on a plane there in the future!:) I appreciate how kind and enthusiastic you and Greg are and I'm sure we'll meet again. Aloha🤙👍😁
@@SeanKaleponi wonderful people like YOU are the reason we fell in love with Hawaii on our first trip in 2013. If you do make it out our way, we'll have to show you the best food- including OUR North Shore (where Greg grew up) which has the BEST Roast Beef sandwiches! Hope you will enjoy my channel- I have some good Hawaiian music (believe it or not filmed in Boston!) Aloha & glad to be in touch!
Mahalo nui sean and nhi for the spots! You put a mad amount of effort into these vids it's crazy! Soon you'll be most famous vlogger in Hawai'i! Keep it up! 1k sub in a week! Send love to Waikane store from Kailua! Aloha 🤙🤙🤙
Mahalo Kapoi!! We try our best. Only once in a while we can do these videos and were proud to have completed them and for you to notice the hard work. We're hoping for the best in the future and the subs will come naturally (🤞) Hope you have a good week ahead 🤙
Hi, awesome live video on food. We enjoyed it. Have you ever tried lamb with mint sauce. I heard it's very good. My cat Benjamin loves it. All your live videos are always enjoyable have a great day see you next video 😊
Sean, you and NHI are the most sweet and genuine people! As usual I’m hungry after watching this! The funnel cake looks so good and Uncles Bo’s food and dessert on my list for the next trip for sure! Oh and your cliff jumping drone footage is awesome!
Aww thanks Lori!! We try our best and were lucky to have such a good support system thay encourages us!:) The Funnel cake was awesome and please head to Uncle Bos the next time in North Shore. I think if you go with friends or your husband it will be a good time for sure! Hope all is well and go Celtics🤙👍😁
Pro tip, if you go to the Waikane store to get the fried chicken,head up the road a mile and grab some pineapple sweet rolls from the Tropical Macadamia Nut Farms and make yourself a sandwich! 🤤🤤🤤
Hi Sean & Nhi! Love that you show & support local businesses! All the food looks so great! I am going to try the taro beignets & that chicken in barrel when I visit in October. Gonna make a trek out to North Shore. Can't wait for your next video for more food ideas! My go to guide for good eats! BTW, you two are so adorable! Love the pho clip!
Aloha Lisa!! Mahalo for always supporting us. Def between Kalihi and North Shore area has the best foods in my opinion. Please try the Taro beignets and Chicken in a Barrel when here in October!! Hope you're having a great weekend👍🤙 Glad you're coming back to the island again😁
Heading back to Oahu in May/June of next year... 2nd time since 2008 for me... WIfes first time.. bringing the kids as well. Hope your doing well, brother!
Aloha Sean and Nhi! You did it again, putting out the best content out there! I love all the RECOMMENDED local food places, and mentions of past visits! THIS IS AN EPIC FOOD TOUR. Lovin' the vibes all around!! 🤩
Sean I’m loving your videos. I have been using your videos to create my itinerary for my trip in Feb. could you do a video of the top 5 restaurants, the #1 Save ice place, and top 5 activities to do with only 5 days on the island?
Aloha Michelle!!! Mahalo for watching and please enjoy your time here in Feb! I don't really have a favorite in anything and I'll consider your thoughts. I do have many videos on my fav places and I did announce my fav Shave Ice place on an old video. Still #1 to me🤙
Aloha from Alaska. My Family Reunion 2025 going to be in Kahuku and Watching your videos giving me all the places i want to come visit! Thank you for your videos! Mahalo! Lets GRIND
Just got back from waikiki and hit up a majority of the spots you recommended and was not disappointed. Next time I go to north shore I will hit these spots up as well. Thank you my friend
I didn’t know you have a jumpier like that Sean. I love Oahu especially the north shore. Great place to eat and beaches so many things to do too. I got a bag of those fried bananas lumpia’s so good. I miss Hawaii so much need to go back soon. Thank you for the great video Sean and Nhi
Aloha Jesse!! Took me a cpl tries for the shot😁🏀 but basketball is my first love. And those fried banana lumpias are sooo good😋 Hope you're able to come back and visit soon. Mahalo for always supporting us.. Have a great week🤙
Wow!!! 129 years, impressive. Will definitely stop by on our next visit. Night Marcher looks so good, but from the look of your face, I’ll try the other delicious items on the menu. Frozen Ice Cream Babana would be awesome. Nhi is so cute shaking her head behind the Taro Beignets. Mm…..Honey toasted corn Bread. Can’t wait to sink my teeth into that Oxtail. YUM what a delicious video. Thanks Sean & Nhi😘😘
Aloha Honu677!! Yes.. I believe there the oldest store on the island. And the Night Marcher was good and def an experience.. but I'll get the other goodies next time😋🤙and yeah so much good food and that Taro Beignets was one of my fav!🤗 Mahalo for always supporting us😁
Spent the week of May 18-25 on the northshore. these spots were great. thumbs up about the info on the 7-11 stores. keep doing these great vlogs. The Franklins.
Another amazing video Sean and Nhi, especially coming out with another video soon after your Hilo video!! 🤩👍🏽👏🏽🙌🏽 So many places to try like the Waikane Store and Ry's Poke Shack. Also, stunning views of the island! Wow! 😍 Mahalo for sharing! 😁🤙🏽
Awww Mahalo Liz for watching!! We tried our best to come out with a video faster and will continue to do so. And you can fo to Waikane and Rys all in one drive too if coming from Kaneohe. Hope all is well and Mahalo for always supporting our channel🤙👍
You are absolutely correct, the kitchen at Waikane Store is exactly how a kitchen that cooks local delicious food should look. You can see a lot of good food is cooked on those stoves. I have to try that place. The chicken looks amazing. And forget Netflix, you need your own Cooking Channel show!!! And now I have to try the Night Marcher. My mouth was watering just seeing it. ALL of that poke looked too good to be true. And set me up for that Triple Play Funnel Cake!!!! Diet? I don't believe in them when I'm on vacation. The lady at Kuilima farms with the bananas was adorable!!! I have to try that banana lumpia and the spicy mango. We did try Jenny's Shrimp Truck and Giovanni's on our last visit to North Shore, but now we have to try Big Wave. To be honest, I need to spend a couple of days in North Shore to try all of the great food. I almost fell over when I saw the plates at Uncle Bo's. WOW. Chicken in a Barrel looks awesome. They really have attention to detail with the barrels and temperature. Unfortunately, the CA location is in Lake Tahoe so that would be a 10 hour drive. I'd rather have it in Oahu anyway. I'm a big fan of jerk chicken, so you've won me over with Jr's. And the ox tails would definitely be on my plate. The ox tail with rice looks perfect. As for the jerk chicken, I love it the darker the better. I love food where I have to lick my fingers after. And always remember to share the ribs and broth. Don't hog the ribs. And I couldn't believe the size of that rib!!! the Nem Nuong really got my attention. That's on my try list as well. And to top it off, you knocked me out of my chair with Shays ube pancakes. I'm going to crave those until I return in February. And I agree about the pizza crust, but it still looked amazing with the toppings. With all that food you try, I can only imagine your work-out schedule.
You are awesome Peter!! You watched the whole video which I never expect anyone too!! You have been there for a while and I hope you get to try all these foods when you visit soon. Big Mahalo to you👍🤙😁😋
I miss home so much! Here in San Diego enjoying every video you make. I’ve always been a homebody, but you guys make me want to go all over the island. Hahahh. What’s the name of the song at 7:57?
Aloha Joel!! Hope all is well in San Diego and you get to visit home soon!! Not sure the name of the song. The library tries to match the music with the area and I'm like "Okay.. I'll roll with that beat".👍🤙
Heeyyyyy!! Just stumbled across your account. So happy for you bruddah Sean. Looks like you and your growing family and life are doing amazing . Much Aloha Liz and RJ and keiki . Ps.. your Mom is hilarious. She needs her own series !!
Hey Liz Kiyan!!!!! How are you, RJ, and the Ohana?? Glad you found our channel!! Please let me know the next time you're in Oahu. We can all meet up! And yeah.. Mom gets requested in our vids so we ask her to be in it👍🤙😁♥️
You missed Jenny’s shrimp truck on the North Shore! So succulent and delicious shrimp. I couldn’t stop eating their garlic shrimp!! Was my favorite of all those shrimp trucks!!
@@SeanKaleponi I’ll have to look up that video! The RUclips algorithm doesn’t always show them all even being subscribed, love watch your videos, very fun and informative! Thanks for making them!!!
Aloha Sean! Finally catching up with RUclips. Wow the chicken at Waikane Store looks so good and such friendly people. I love Uncle Bo's in Kapahulu but never tasted the North Shore location. The boca rota is my fav there. Love Jamaican jerk chicken and sad that they closed their location. And I thought Ribs and Broth was also outstanding pho + Shay's = bomb. I gotta put the rest on my list to try. Mahalo for sharing all these great spots and for your hard work. 🤙
Aloha Misty!! Hope you had an amazing trip! And just from our experience.. Uncle Bos in Haleiwa served bigger portions. Not sure if it was the cooks those days. We liked it better and I remember you did Ribs and Broth a while ago. Soo good there!! Hope all is well friend and I still gotta go to the Kaneohe location for Jamaican food.🇯🇲 Look forward to your next vlogs👍🤙
My latest favorite North shore food- Ry's Poke nachos. It's the bomb! So many of your features look so good too. Want to try Waikane store chicken and sushi. Love all your videos.
Awww Mahalo Laura!! Rys Poke Nachos are sooo good. I love everything about their food😋😁👍. And please check out Waikane Store. Def nostalgic. Have a great weekend😁
Amazing places you went to. Never knew about those funnel cakes. Always thought you could only get them at carnivals and fairs. I think I saw Chicken in a Barrel on Kauai, but I never tried it. Didn't know what I was missing. Good thing I'm not too far away.
Aloha TitasMom! Mahalo for always supporting us. And yes.. I thought Funnel cakes were only at Carnivals too but they make them here. I think Chicken in a Barrel has a cpl locations in Hawaii. Just glad there's on on our island. 🤙👍
Aloha, Sean & Nhi... You both did an amazing job showcasing these merchants! Well done! The details of all of the food were fantastic not to mention the awesome eating LOL! There are some items that I never tried before like the Taro Andagi at Uncle Bo's and the Jamaican Oxtail in Wahiawa. Now on my list. Just an fyi to try one day, in Pearl City near Walmart and across the 7-11 there is a Huli Huli chicken wagon called POPOLO Boys. What is unique is that his Huli Chicken has a slight hint of Jerk seasoning in it. His wagon is pretty popular but not there every day. And now returning to Wahiawa, I think of Shige's Saimin. I like how you re-highlight & revisit these past places. (Definitely, one of the best old school Cheeseburgers on Oahu). Look forward to the next episode. Mahalo Plenty!
Aloha for watching the entire video!! Wow! Appreciate it and the Taro Andagi and Jamaican Oxtail are soo good!! I'll def check out Popolo Boys next time. I appreciate the tip!!! Mahalo and have a good week🤙👍😁
Hey Sean, we’ve been following you guys, you guys are great!!! Finally made it, we’re from So Cal. We’re here till Tuesday. We’re staying at North Shore. We’ve hit couple of the places you’ve recommended.. Mahalo 🤙🏽
Aloha Flipgirl! The day after this video aired.. Jrs closed their location and will only do pop ups at events for now. Sorry. Hope they get a permanent location soon. Please follow their IG to see where they'll be.🤙
Ai-yi-yi! Wishing you guys had given me 4-1-1 for this video! Outside of Waiahole/Waikane/Kualoa...grew up from Hauula/Laie/Kahuku ALL the way up to Wahiawa, where i live now. Still, XLNT video! Could've shown you guys around some of My favorite grind & dine spots?!-lol..You guys maken me Very Jelly!-lol...Can make up another list & maybe share that list w/U guys, next time?!....Aloha no, M/M Kaleponi +keiki Kaleponi
Aloha Harry!!! Always good hearing from you!! Aww shucks next time for sure. This is my fav drive from Kaneohe to North Shore and Central. I'm sure you know all the good spots too!! Will do Harry!! Take care and hope all is well🤙👍😋
Oh these all look so Ono!!!! Have you guys ever gone to the Thai Food Express in Kaneohe? Cause their shrimp pad tie is the very best I've ever had. All their food is so good, and the owners are amazing people.
Coming to your part of the world in September for first time You and the Mrs do a great job unfortunately we’re only there a short time I’ve got my list Again great work Mate
Awesome video, Sean…I will check out the eateries on my next visit. Looks like Waipahu is up and coming with new eateries, besides the new builds in Waipahu town. Had Nhi given birth yet?

Sean I’m loving your videos. I have been using your videos to create my itinerary for my trip in Feb. could you do a video of the top 5 restaurants, the #1 Save ice place, and top 5 activities to do with only 5 days on the island?
Aloha Michelle!!! Mahalo for watching and please enjoy your time here in Feb! I don't really have a favorite in anything and I'll consider your thoughts. I do have many videos on my fav places and I did announce my fav Shave Ice place on an old video. Still #1 to me🤙
Keep it coming Awsome🎉 it’s soooo good to watch you and All the places you have eaten😊
Aloha Dana!! We appreciate all your support. Hope you get to eat these foods soon👍🤙😋
I'm getting cavities from just looking at all the sweetness on those Ubae pancakes.
The Ube Pancakes was my favorite I had so far😋🤙👍
I’m leaving for Hawaii tomorrow and I’m definitely going to try that first one
Aloha Rachel!! Please enjoy your time here in Hawaii today and the Waikane Store is awesome! Mahalo😋👍🤙😁

Watching your videos makes me miss visiting Hawaii. One day when I am able to visit again, you've given me some great ideas of places to dine at.
Awww Mahalo Paula and it's always good hearing from you!! Hope you're able to visit Hawaii soon! Have a great week and 4th of July👍🤙
Mahalo can't wait to visit and go try all the recommendations that are shown on your channel and Amanda and Felix's channel.
Mahalo Jocelynn!! Yes.. Def check out Amanda and Felix channel for some good eats👍😋
Just got back from waikiki and hit up a majority of the spots you recommended and was not disappointed. Next time I go to north shore I will hit these spots up as well. Thank you my friend
Mahalo Jordan for watching and taking our recs in Waikiki. Please enjoy North Shore next time👍🤙
The Waikane Store is definitely on my list now Sean, the double stoves in the kitchen and the chicken are what sold me.
Thanks. I believe it's the oldest store in all of Oahu. Def worth visiting. 🤙👍
I didn’t know you have a jumpier like that Sean. I love Oahu especially the north shore. Great place to eat and beaches so many things to do too. I got a bag of those fried bananas lumpia’s so good. I miss Hawaii so much need to go back soon. Thank you for the great video Sean and Nhi
Aloha Jesse!! Took me a cpl tries for the shot😁🏀 but basketball is my first love. And those fried banana lumpias are sooo good😋 Hope you're able to come back and visit soon. Mahalo for always supporting us.. Have a great week🤙
Love it as always can't wait to come back :)
Hope you're able to come back home soon👍🤙
Wow!!! 129 years, impressive. Will definitely stop by on our next visit. Night Marcher looks so good, but from the look of your face, I’ll try the other delicious items on the menu. Frozen Ice Cream Babana would be awesome. Nhi is so cute shaking her head behind the Taro Beignets. Mm…..Honey toasted corn Bread. Can’t wait to sink my teeth into that Oxtail. YUM what a delicious video. Thanks Sean & Nhi😘😘
Aloha Honu677!! Yes.. I believe there the oldest store on the island. And the Night Marcher was good and def an experience.. but I'll get the other goodies next time😋🤙and yeah so much good food and that Taro Beignets was one of my fav!🤗 Mahalo for always supporting us😁
Spent the week of May 18-25 on the northshore. these spots were great. thumbs up about the info on the 7-11 stores. keep doing these great vlogs. The Franklins.
Aloha Franklin Ohana! Hope you had a blast in May and yes.. those 711 and Chain Restaurant vids are fun for us. Mahalo🤙👍
Great video! Thank you. Jaycation sent me!
Awesome!!! Jaycation is a good man🤙👍 Mahalo for watching
Another amazing video Sean and Nhi, especially coming out with another video soon after your Hilo video!! 🤩👍🏽👏🏽🙌🏽 So many places to try like the Waikane Store and Ry's Poke Shack. Also, stunning views of the island! Wow! 😍 Mahalo for sharing! 😁🤙🏽
Awww Mahalo Liz for watching!! We tried our best to come out with a video faster and will continue to do so. And you can fo to Waikane and Rys all in one drive too if coming from Kaneohe. Hope all is well and Mahalo for always supporting our channel🤙👍
Your videos always make me want to get on the flight to Oahu.
Aloha Kenny!!!! Hope you and Susan can visit soon and we can get rid of our hunger 🤙👍😋
Cant wait to check these spots out! Awesome video as always 👍👍👍
Aloha and Mahalo for watching Samano Ohana👍🤙
You are absolutely correct, the kitchen at Waikane Store is exactly how a kitchen that cooks local delicious food should look. You can see a lot of good food is cooked on those stoves. I have to try that place. The chicken looks amazing. And forget Netflix, you need your own Cooking Channel show!!! And now I have to try the Night Marcher. My mouth was watering just seeing it. ALL of that poke looked too good to be true. And set me up for that Triple Play Funnel Cake!!!! Diet? I don't believe in them when I'm on vacation. The lady at Kuilima farms with the bananas was adorable!!! I have to try that banana lumpia and the spicy mango. We did try Jenny's Shrimp Truck and Giovanni's on our last visit to North Shore, but now we have to try Big Wave. To be honest, I need to spend a couple of days in North Shore to try all of the great food. I almost fell over when I saw the plates at Uncle Bo's. WOW. Chicken in a Barrel looks awesome. They really have attention to detail with the barrels and temperature. Unfortunately, the CA location is in Lake Tahoe so that would be a 10 hour drive. I'd rather have it in Oahu anyway. I'm a big fan of jerk chicken, so you've won me over with Jr's. And the ox tails would definitely be on my plate. The ox tail with rice looks perfect. As for the jerk chicken, I love it the darker the better. I love food where I have to lick my fingers after. And always remember to share the ribs and broth. Don't hog the ribs. And I couldn't believe the size of that rib!!! the Nem Nuong really got my attention. That's on my try list as well. And to top it off, you knocked me out of my chair with Shays ube pancakes. I'm going to crave those until I return in February. And I agree about the pizza crust, but it still looked amazing with the toppings. With all that food you try, I can only imagine your work-out schedule.
You are awesome Peter!! You watched the whole video which I never expect anyone too!! You have been there for a while and I hope you get to try all these foods when you visit soon. Big Mahalo to you👍🤙😁😋
@@SeanKaleponi You feature amazingly delicious food. I always watch your videos to the end!!
I miss home so much! Here in San Diego enjoying every video you make. I’ve always been a homebody, but you guys make me want to go all over the island. Hahahh. What’s the name of the song at 7:57?
Aloha Joel!! Hope all is well in San Diego and you get to visit home soon!! Not sure the name of the song. The library tries to match the music with the area and I'm like "Okay.. I'll roll with that beat".👍🤙
Moving in 2 weeks to Oahu! I have so many in my google maps saved. Thank you!
Welcome to Oahu Shannon🤙 Glad this channel can help👍😁
Heeyyyyy!! Just stumbled across your account. So happy for you bruddah Sean. Looks like you and your growing family and life are doing amazing . Much Aloha Liz and RJ and keiki .

we love your video , thank Nhi and Sean. 👍👍👍❤️❤️
Mahalo Jacklyn!! We appreciate you watching👍🤙
You missed Jenny’s shrimp truck on the North Shore! So succulent and delicious shrimp. I couldn’t stop eating their garlic shrimp!! Was my favorite of all those shrimp trucks!!
We've covered Jennys before👍🤙
@@SeanKaleponi I’ll have to look up that video! The RUclips algorithm doesn’t always show them all even being subscribed, love watch your videos, very fun and informative! Thanks for making them!!!
This video is a highlight.
Mahalo Valentina👍♥️🤙
Ultimate!!! 🙌🏼🙌🏼🙌🏼
Mahalo Anna🤙👍
Great Episode!!! I’ve been book marking many place’s thanks to you both for my trip in September I can’t wait to be back!!! 🤙🏼🤙🏼🤙🏼
Aloha Real City!! Please enjoy your time here in Sept!! Mahalo for watching🤙😋
Mahalo Sean was wondering if you had heard of a place in Waikiki called Me’s Bbq lil while in the wall but had great Food and prices!
Will definitely have to try some of these next time I am there.
Enjoy and please let me know what you think🤙😁
I was akamai this time. Before watching, I ate dinner...lol Mahalo for the food tour!
🍍😎🤙🌴🥥🌺🌈
Aloha BraddahBruce!! Haha hope Dinner was good and that you get to try some of these places😁🤙
Oh you hit some of our favs. Ry's spicy Lao is awesome and Jr's is my go to for Jamaican. Love them.
Hey Gina. Hope Rome is awesome! And I remember you telling me you ate at Jr's Jamaican and Rys is awesome🤙😁
Aloha Sean! Finally catching up with RUclips. Wow the chicken at Waikane Store looks so good and such friendly people. I love Uncle Bo's in Kapahulu but never tasted the North Shore location. The boca rota is my fav there. Love Jamaican jerk chicken and sad that they closed their location. And I thought Ribs and Broth was also outstanding pho + Shay's = bomb. I gotta put the rest on my list to try. Mahalo for sharing all these great spots and for your hard work. 🤙
Aloha Misty!! Hope you had an amazing trip! And just from our experience.. Uncle Bos in Haleiwa served bigger portions. Not sure if it was the cooks those days. We liked it better and I remember you did Ribs and Broth a while ago. Soo good there!! Hope all is well friend and I still gotta go to the Kaneohe location for Jamaican food.🇯🇲 Look forward to your next vlogs👍🤙
My latest favorite North shore food- Ry's Poke nachos. It's the bomb! So many of your features look so good too. Want to try Waikane store chicken and sushi. Love all your videos.
Awww Mahalo Laura!! Rys Poke Nachos are sooo good. I love everything about their food😋😁👍. And please check out Waikane Store. Def nostalgic. Have a great weekend😁
Aloha. Can i ask you where is the basket ball hall you recorded with many coconut tree behind. Its so beautiful. Thank you so much
Aloha Nguyen!! I promised the locals that I wouldn't say where it is. Sorry.. but I can tell you it's in Kaneohe since I mentioned it. 🤙
My goodness so Hawaiian good
Aloha Jor Jarrod👍🤙😋 Good local grindz here.
Amazing places you went to. Never knew about those funnel cakes. Always thought you could only get them at carnivals and fairs. I think I saw Chicken in a Barrel on Kauai, but I never tried it. Didn't know what I was missing. Good thing I'm not too far away.
Aloha TitasMom! Mahalo for always supporting us. And yes.. I thought Funnel cakes were only at Carnivals too but they make them here. I think Chicken in a Barrel has a cpl locations in Hawaii. Just glad there's on on our island. 🤙👍
Jamaicans have the best Ox Tails and Jerk Chicken. I'm glad you not only tried it but you enjoyed it Sean.
🤙👍😋
Aloha, Sean & Nhi... You both did an amazing job showcasing these merchants! Well done! The details of all of the food were fantastic not to mention the awesome eating LOL! There are some items that I never tried before like the Taro Andagi at Uncle Bo's and the Jamaican Oxtail in Wahiawa. Now on my list. Just an fyi to try one day, in Pearl City near Walmart and across the 7-11 there is a Huli Huli chicken wagon called POPOLO Boys. What is unique is that his Huli Chicken has a slight hint of Jerk seasoning in it. His wagon is pretty popular but not there every day.
And now returning to Wahiawa, I think of Shige's Saimin. I like how you re-highlight & revisit these past places. (Definitely, one of the best old school Cheeseburgers on Oahu). Look forward to the next episode. Mahalo Plenty!
Aloha for watching the entire video!! Wow! Appreciate it and the Taro Andagi and Jamaican Oxtail are soo good!! I'll def check out Popolo Boys next time. I appreciate the tip!!! Mahalo and have a good week🤙👍😁
Another great video Sean! I always feel like I'm back in O‘ahu when watching your videos. Thanks so much!!
Aloha Snipergene!! Hope you're able to come back to Oahu soon and try these foods. Have a good weekend🤙👍😁
Poke' Nachos looks great Mmmmm
Rys has the best Poke🤙👍😋
