Can't get over the fact I didn't know about your channel before!!!!BEST Hawaii content! Feels like a TV show. 30 minutes into the video and doesn't feel like 30 minutes at all! You know sean and nhi do a good job cause it's hard to get me to watch anything for 3 minutes. Yet I'm gonna watch the rest of this video later, so much fun and lots of good info. The food scene is fantastic!
Aloha Jojo!! Mahalo for watching and I feel proud that you watched that far in when you can't watch for 3 minutes with most things. It's a risk when we make a long video but ppl like you give us the confidence to do so!! Mahalo for all your kind words🤙👍

OK Sean! Your mom done put me on some game with this Char Siu Bao @ Royal Kitchen. Bread is my weakness and now I want to buy an airline just to come there and try it.
I was able to finish the entire video today, wow! So many yummy places to try. Thank you for sharing how to order the look fun (I would’ve thought it was just one slice and then it goes up from there 😅). The beef tendon with chow fun and beef tendon looks devine 🤤 the Thai-Lao place looks great too. Of course, as the video wrapped up and I saw the dedication to your father that made me cry. What a wonderful human to have raised another wonderful human ❤
Aloha Okamicookie!! Mahalo for watching the whole video as I never expect anyone too but am grateful! And yes so many good places to try. The beef tendon was amazing and Olays is really good! I appreciate you making the comment on my Father too. It was the most important part. And of course it sticks out to me when ppl comment about it. I appreciate you always supporting this channel. Happy New Years🤙👍🎆🎆
Wow. Just goes to show how great your video is. Watching an hour long clip? I couldn’t believe. It takes so much work and so much food to make this type of masterpiece. I am glad that I have a day job. Pig and the Lady is my one of my favorite restaurants. The pho and bahn mi are what I usually get. But I liked the fried chicken as well. I will try some of them in Jan and let you know. Happy Holidays. Wish the best for you and your loved ones!
Aloha Min!! Always good hearing from you and yes.. we figure we close the year with a bang! And we can make this kind-of video because we have awesome viewers! The Pig and The Lady is soo good!! Please enjoy all the local foods soon🤙Happy New Years🎆🤙👍😋

Aloha Honu!! Always good hearing from you! And we tried our best to go to the most authentic places. Sorry for making you hungry again. I try to watch other foodies on a full stomach. Lol! Mahalo for watching and have a Happy New Years🎆🤙😋

Sean & Nhi.. love you two’s enthusiasm of food tour & vlog contents.. the best..! Enjoyed the chats with restaurant owners to express their creativities.. Aloha…Derek!
Sean... You and Nhi are the best and your mom was wonderful too. I truly hope my wife and I get lucky and cross paths with you on our next visit to Oahu. We'll definitely need to spend some time in Chinatown next time. Thanks as always for the informative and fun content. I appreciated the special personal touches you incorporated into this video, especially the pictures and part mentioning your dad. 🤙
Aloha Scott!! Mahalo for your kind words and mentioning the things in this video that mean the most to me:) If you and your wife sees us on Oahu next, please say hi! Have a great week👍🤙
Hi Sean and Nhi 👋 I’m putting pen to paper to start my itinerary for our arrival in Oct 2024. 32:30 Lam’s Kitchen with the soup bowl and the off menu dish are on the list 😋 Cheers Rod & Gemma 🤙
Always good hearing from you Rod!! And that's great you're coming here in October! You're list will get super long so hope you're able to stay here longer and that we get to meet. And Lams Kitchen was the biggest surprise! So good and cheap! And I'm trying to reach 50K but there's no prize or anything. But well get a Placard from RUclips if we hit 100K so crossing my fingers👍🤙Happy New Years to you and Gemma!🎆
Hi Sean & Nhi! My husband & I enjoyed the video. All the food you showcased looked amazing! The Lao restaurant was impressive! Nice ambiance! The Hanoi egg coffee I will have to try! Love seeing your mom! She is so funny & entertaining! A natural in front of camera! Hope you have a great New Year & over 50K subscribers!
Aloha Lisa! Nhi and I appreciate you and your husband supporting our channel! The Lao restaurant was special and that Hanoi Egg Coffee was so good😋 My Mom will.be happy to read this and she'll be on future vlogs! Happy New Years to you too and crossing my fingers for 50K in the new year🤙❤️
OMG!!! Sean when I came to Oahu in January 2023 we went to Nam Fong but it was closed not closed down but for the day. I can't believe it but I'm glad you told the viewers here not to take their local businesses for granted.
Wow I envy your guys' stomach space! So much good food in one day I'd not want to move. 😂 I love J Dolan's, Pig and the Lady and Okim's. I havent been to Olays since they were in Haleiwa! The papaya salad looked bomb. Love your mom. Shes so funny. I gotta get down there and try the Vietnamese food stand! 🤤 The ending for your dad was touching. Mahalo Sean and Nhi and I hope Margaret Cho was a blast! 🤙
Aloha Misty! We filmed over 2 days and we had to strategically plan it. Like 3 places in the morning afternoon... go home then come back for 2 more late afternoon and night for 2 straight days. Was a fun adventure and didn't know about certain spots until we went. And thanks for watching until the end! Yeah.. I have quite a bit of memories here with my Dad. And that fun stand.. Gon and Ti is awesome!! Gosh.. it's the best bang for my buck when it comes to Vietnamese food and with Margaret Cho, it was okay. She's funny but very political. Oh well. I gotta watch my Eddie Murphy Raw and Delirious for laughs. Have a great Happy New Years Misty!!🤙🎆❤️
@@SeanKaleponi Yeah the politics is a drag when they bring that in. Good plan! You guys had it all down to get in all the good eats! Have a Happy New Year as well Sean and Nhi!
We were so happy to meet Nih & Heather at Gon & Ti today! They shared with us their coffee jello and it was so delicious!! Regards to Sean and his mom!!! The food was so delicious there! We tried everything you guys had there! Our fur baby Chewie says hello too!
Aloha Lynn!! Yes Nhi and my sister Heather told me they met you guys! Awesome and I wish I was there! Mahalo for going to Gon and Ti and supporting local!! We love their shop. Please tell Chewie we said Aloha too🤙
Sean! As many times as I've been to Oahu, I've never heard let alone seen Manapua but after watching you and your mom at Royal Kitchen I really want one, scratch that three of them now.
You guys are getting so good at this ! another great video… such interesting food! That corn ice cream was so creative! Love having your mom ..she calls you out on everything 😂😂❤️ those shirts are adorable and your baby pictures so cute. Love how many people recognize and appreciate you both ❤ love that you dedicated to your dad ❤️🥹❤️
Aww thanks Lori for always supporting us!! It means more coming from you! And I really like the corn ice cream and Mom always keeps it real with me. Maybe too much😂😂. And I feel blessed to have great viewers for we can't do it without them. We enjoy including them in our video. And thank you.. it let's me know who watched till the very end. Happy New Years Lori👍❤️🤙
So great to see this. I miss the authentic foods of Hawaii. Especially the part with your Mom. She seems so genuine & awesome! Aloha from the Gulf Coast of MS 🤙 🌺
Been living on the East Coast for 10 years and I always miss Hawaii cuisine. So delicious!I. remember Royal Kitchen as a kid. It was my favorite dim sum take out! My mom would always order a plate lunch and dim sum. So yummy. Next time I visit my family I’m going there. I do remember in the 70s and 80s, the tables u were sitting on , it used to be a bunch of old men playing games every time we would go there. I get why your mom is loved. She is a local girl. Tells it like it is , with a sense of humor and all with love. God bless your family and fun food channel.
Mahalo Risa!! And yes.. there's still old men playing games near Royal Kitchen. Every day it seems like but they play a little more upwards but on the same strip. And Royal Kutchen still has the best Manapua. Mahalo for sharing your memories with your Mom. I have many memories with her here🤙👍
Thanks for making these Chinatown videos! We recommend Chinatown for the food and the culture. It has gotten an undeserved reputation as being dangerous. One guide even told us to never visit. There were some incidents a few years ago but you show off a thriving and safe place to visit. We got that feeling too on our last trip. Mahalo!
Aloha Erica and Jordan!! It's wonderful to hear from you two!! I've recommended people to your channel whenever they ask me about all the Hawaiian Islands. And yes.. I feel the same about Chinatown and its undeserving bad wrap. Yes.. there may be a couple incidents here and there but what place on Oahu doesn't? I'm glad your Ohana got good vibes the last time you went and hope to bump into you guys someday👍🤙
Sean, Happy New Year!!! As always, amazing video and the details are awesome. This is by far my favorite one. The amount of detail on effort and time that you put into the editing is extremely noticeable. Anyhow, being half vietnamese myself, I get really hyped up when you do reviews on vietnamese food. I love that you have Nhi there, too! You two are the best Hawaii food vbloggers. 💯. Please keep up the awesome work. 50k in no time! 🤙🏾
Aloha Darius and Happy New Years to you and your family!! Mahalo for watching and your kind words!! We just thought we should come out with an end of the year video to punctuate it. Took a while to make but your feedback makes it worth it. And cool! You're half Vietnamese? Right on!! The Vietnamese food is soo good there and Nhi is proud to show the food that reminds her of home. Hope all is well and always good hearing from you🤙
Mahalo, I'm a Wahiawa Boy living in New Orleans. My Dad was born and raised in Chinatown. He grew up working in the Chinatown market. They torn down his tenement to build the Cultural Center. Keep on filming. Making me homesick.
Mahalo Frank for watching and sharing your story. You and your Dad must have some awesome stories in Chinatown!! Thanks for sharing with me his work. Hope you're able to come back soon🤙👍😁
Aloha Kaleponi's! Love seeing your mom in the videos and taking a trip down memory lane of your childhood. All of the grinds look super ono! You even went to one of my favorite pizza spots and watering holes...JJ Dolan's!🙌🏽 It was so nice to spend time with you and Nhi a couple weeks ago for the lights at Noelo. The keikis truly were in awe of the displays. Happy New Year you two! Looking forward to more adventures in 2024! 🤙🏽🎉
Aloha Mycke!! Mahalo for watching and my Mom appreciates your comments! JJ Dolans is soo good and I remember we use to go there over 20 years ago. Quality is still the same👍😋 It was great spending time with the Reyes Ohana as well during Christmas!! Happy New Years to you guys, and I'm sure I'll see you soon in 2024! 🎆👍🤙
Just want to give a thumbs up first and a comment before watching this video and say hi Sean and Nhi looking forward to watching this video this weekend when I’m off work

I live here and now I want to go to all the places you featured. Everything looks so ono! Your Mom is so fun. You have two beautiful and sweet women in your life. ❤
Aloha Sean and Nhi!! Epic food tour with so many delicious eats at affordable prices. You two tried so many things in your two day tour!! Definitely added places to our growing list. Having even more of a hard time trying to figure out how to fit in so many spots with such little stomach space!! 😂 We love your shirts BTW and definitely enjoyed seeing Momma Kaleponi again. Moms are so funny!! Also what a wonderful way to share your memories of your dad. We’re pretty sure he’s looking down on you and loving the fact that you’re showing love for Chinatown!! Hope you, Nhi, and all of your family had a great Christmas. Wishing you all a blessed 2024. Mahalo as always for taking us along on another great foodie adventure!!
Aloha Michelle and Jose!! Mahalo for watching and it took some strategic planning for those 2 days🤙😋 and thanks. We're working on the shirts right now and my Mom will be happy to read this. 😂 I appreciate you watching the whole video until the end with my Dads dedication and that's means a lot. I'm sure I'm see you guys next year and we can all eat together. Cheers to you two for reaching 1K and many more subscribers in the future. Happy New Years to you both!!🤙👍🎆😋

We love you and Nhi but I think mom needs to do more guest appearances! 😂 Now every time I eat chicken feet at dim sum it's gonna remind me of her LOL! I laughed so hard at her chicken feet story...then I thought about what they look like when they are raw...I was like...damnit auntie is right!!🤣 I can see where you get your sense of humor from haha I'm bumped that we didn't eat at any places in Chinatown😭 O'Kim was even on my list! Just too many good eats and too little time! Hopefully we can go back to Oahu sooner! - Christy
Aloha Christy!! Yeah my Mom is funny and has always cracked a lot of jokes! Well ask my Mom to be in more videos! And I wish you could have seen my face when she told her chicken feet story. Lol!!

I was able to finish the entire video today, wow! So many yummy places to try. Thank you for sharing how to order the look fun (I would’ve thought it was just one slice and then it goes up from there 😅). The beef tendon with chow fun and beef tendon looks devine 🤤 the Thai-Lao place looks great too. Of course, as the video wrapped up and I saw the dedication to your father that made me cry. What a wonderful human to have raised another wonderful human ❤
Aloha Okamicookie!! Mahalo for watching the whole video as I never expect anyone too but am grateful! And yes so many good places to try. The beef tendon was amazing and Olays is really good!

Always love your videos Sean. Makes me feel like I'm back on the island!
Aloha Snipergene!! Mahalo for watching and hope you're able to come back to visit the islands soon🤙👍
Wow. Just goes to show how great your video is. Watching an hour long clip? I couldn’t believe. It takes so much work and so much food to make this type of masterpiece. I am glad that I have a day job. Pig and the Lady is my one of my favorite restaurants. The pho and bahn mi are what I usually get. But I liked the fried chicken as well. I will try some of them in Jan and let you know. Happy Holidays. Wish the best for you and your loved ones!
Aloha Min!! Always good hearing from you and yes.. we figure we close the year with a bang! And we can make this kind-of video because we have awesome viewers! The Pig and The Lady is soo good!! Please enjoy all the local foods soon🤙Happy New Years🎆🤙👍😋

Aloha Derek! Always good hearing from you!! And we try our best to chat with the Restaurant owners and ppl in general! Mahalo for noticing!! 🤙👍
Sean... You and Nhi are the best and your mom was wonderful too. I truly hope my wife and I get lucky and cross paths with you on our next visit to Oahu. We'll definitely need to spend some time in Chinatown next time. Thanks as always for the informative and fun content.

Aloha Scott!! Mahalo for your kind words and mentioning the things in this video that mean the most to me:) If you and your wife sees us on Oahu next, please say hi! Have a great week👍🤙
Hi Sean and Nhi 👋 I’m putting pen to paper to start my itinerary for our arrival in Oct 2024. 32:30 Lam’s Kitchen with the soup bowl and the off menu dish are on the list 😋
Cheers Rod & Gemma 🤙
Always good hearing from you Rod!! And that's great you're coming here in October! You're list will get super long so hope you're able to stay here longer and that we get to meet. And Lams Kitchen was the biggest surprise! So good and cheap! And I'm trying to reach 50K but there's no prize or anything. But well get a Placard from RUclips if we hit 100K so crossing my fingers👍🤙Happy New Years to you and Gemma!🎆

Mahalo Braddah Bruce for watching and supporting us🤙😋😁
OMG!!! Sean when I came to Oahu in January 2023 we went to Nam Fong but it was closed not closed down but for the day. I can't believe it but I'm glad you told the viewers here not to take their local businesses for granted.
Yes.. Def shouldn't take businesses for granted for we never know when their gone. Thanks Charles👍🤙
Wow I envy your guys' stomach space! So much good food in one day I'd not want to move. 😂 I love J Dolan's, Pig and the Lady and Okim's. I havent been to Olays since they were in Haleiwa! The papaya salad looked bomb. Love your mom. Shes so funny. I gotta get down there and try the Vietnamese food stand! 🤤 The ending for your dad was touching. Mahalo Sean and Nhi and I hope Margaret Cho was a blast! 🤙
Aloha Misty! We filmed over 2 days and we had to strategically plan it. Like 3 places in the morning afternoon... go home then come back for 2 more late afternoon and night for 2 straight days. Was a fun adventure and didn't know about certain spots until we went. And thanks for watching until the end! Yeah.. I have quite a bit of memories here with my Dad. And that fun stand.. Gon and Ti is awesome!! Gosh.. it's the best bang for my buck when it comes to Vietnamese food and with Margaret Cho, it was okay. She's funny but very political. Oh well. I gotta watch my Eddie Murphy Raw and Delirious for laughs. Have a great Happy New Years Misty!!🤙🎆❤️
@@SeanKaleponi Yeah the politics is a drag when they bring that in. Good plan! You guys had it all down to get in all the good eats! Have a Happy New Year as well Sean and Nhi!
Sean, sorry, your mom rocks! She has a way of saying things and she has an awesome smile!
Aloha Nish!! No need to be sorry. I'm glad you think my Mom rocks! She'll be happy to see these comments🤙😁
We were so happy to meet Nih & Heather at Gon & Ti today! They shared with us their coffee jello and it was so delicious!! Regards to Sean and his mom!!! The food was so delicious there! We tried everything you guys had there! Our fur baby Chewie says hello too!
Aloha Lynn!! Yes Nhi and my sister Heather told me they met you guys! Awesome and I wish I was there! Mahalo for going to Gon and Ti and supporting local!! We love their shop. Please tell Chewie we said Aloha too🤙
@@SeanKaleponi we hope to meet you one day too!!!
Thanks!
Mahalo for your donation!
Sean! As many times as I've been to Oahu, I've never heard let alone seen Manapua but after watching you and your mom at Royal Kitchen I really want one, scratch that three of them now.
That's more to add to the list Charles 🤙😋
You have to go! I live in Georgia now but this the first and last place I go to when I go home. Best manapua!
Amazing production as always !! Very enjoyable viewing !!
Aloha George!! Mahalo for watching and your kind words🤙
Thank you so much to share, I can’t wait to visit all look so yummy 😋
Aloha!! Please enjoy all of Chinatown when you do visit. Mahalo👍🤙

OMG this was such a wonderful episode. So many emotions and so much food. ❤
Aloha Dr. Willy Wonka! Mahalo for watching and glad you enjoyed the episode! 🤙
Been living on the East Coast for 10 years and I always miss Hawaii cuisine. So delicious!I. remember Royal Kitchen as a kid. It was my favorite dim sum take out! My mom would always order a plate lunch and dim sum. So yummy. Next time I visit my family I’m going there.
I do remember in the 70s and 80s, the tables u were sitting on , it used to be a bunch of old men playing games every time we would go there.
I get why your mom is loved. She is a local girl. Tells it like it is , with a sense of humor and all with love. God bless your family and fun food channel.
Mahalo Risa!! And yes.. there's still old men playing games near Royal Kitchen. Every day it seems like but they play a little more upwards but on the same strip. And Royal Kutchen still has the best Manapua. Mahalo for sharing your memories with your Mom. I have many memories with her here🤙👍
Thanks for making these Chinatown videos! We recommend Chinatown for the food and the culture. It has gotten an undeserved reputation as being dangerous. One guide even told us to never visit. There were some incidents a few years ago but you show off a thriving and safe place to visit. We got that feeling too on our last trip. Mahalo!
Aloha Erica and Jordan!! It's wonderful to hear from you two!! I've recommended people to your channel whenever they ask me about all the Hawaiian Islands. And yes.. I feel the same about Chinatown and its undeserving bad wrap. Yes.. there may be a couple incidents here and there but what place on Oahu doesn't? I'm glad your Ohana got good vibes the last time you went and hope to bump into you guys someday👍🤙
Sean, Happy New Year!!! As always, amazing video and the details are awesome. This is by far my favorite one. The amount of detail on effort and time that you put into the editing is extremely noticeable. Anyhow, being half vietnamese myself, I get really hyped up when you do reviews on vietnamese food. I love that you have Nhi there, too! You two are the best Hawaii food vbloggers. 💯. Please keep up the awesome work. 50k in no time! 🤙🏾
Aloha Darius and Happy New Years to you and your family!! Mahalo for watching and your kind words!! We just thought we should come out with an end of the year video to punctuate it. Took a while to make but your feedback makes it worth it. And cool! You're half Vietnamese? Right on!! The Vietnamese food is soo good there and Nhi is proud to show the food that reminds her of home. Hope all is well and always good hearing from you🤙
Mom is super adorbs!! 😂 That Laos Res.. super cool looking loving the ambiance…. 👍🏼👍🏼
Aloha TheLoeungs!! Awww my Mom would appreciate these comments. Also.. the ambience at Olays was really cool👍🤙
Mahalo, I'm a Wahiawa Boy living in New Orleans. My Dad was born and raised in Chinatown. He grew up working in the Chinatown market. They torn down his tenement to build the Cultural Center.
Keep on filming. Making me homesick.
Mahalo Frank for watching and sharing your story. You and your Dad must have some awesome stories in Chinatown!! Thanks for sharing with me his work. Hope you're able to come back soon🤙👍😁
Aloha Kaleponi's! Love seeing your mom in the videos and taking a trip down memory lane of your childhood. All of the grinds look super ono! You even went to one of my favorite pizza spots and watering holes...JJ Dolan's!🙌🏽 It was so nice to spend time with you and Nhi a couple weeks ago for the lights at Noelo. The keikis truly were in awe of the displays. Happy New Year you two! Looking forward to more adventures in 2024! 🤙🏽🎉
Aloha Mycke!! Mahalo for watching and my Mom appreciates your comments! JJ Dolans is soo good and I remember we use to go there over 20 years ago. Quality is still the same👍😋 It was great spending time with the Reyes Ohana as well during Christmas!! Happy New Years to you guys, and I'm sure I'll see you soon in 2024! 🎆👍🤙

Aloha Sean and Nhi!! Epic food tour with so many delicious eats at affordable prices. You two tried so many things in your two day tour!! Definitely added places to our growing list. Having even more of a hard time trying to figure out how to fit in so many spots with such little stomach space!! 😂 We love your shirts BTW and definitely enjoyed seeing Momma Kaleponi again. Moms are so funny!! Also what a wonderful way to share your memories of your dad. We’re pretty sure he’s looking down on you and loving the fact that you’re showing love for Chinatown!! Hope you, Nhi, and all of your family had a great Christmas. Wishing you all a blessed 2024. Mahalo as always for taking us along on another great foodie adventure!!
Aloha Michelle and Jose!! Mahalo for watching and it took some strategic planning for those 2 days🤙😋 and thanks. We're working on the shirts right now and my Mom will be happy to read this. 😂 I appreciate you watching the whole video until the end with my Dads dedication and that's means a lot. I'm sure I'm see you guys next year and we can all eat together. Cheers to you two for reaching 1K and many more subscribers in the future. Happy New Years to you both!!🤙👍🎆😋
