The food truck looked WONDERFUL at the time the video came out. Glad to hear it made "#1 for 2024". Headed to Honolulu the first week of March for vacation...we definitely will go!
Yo Misty, I hope you had a great Christmas. If I don't comment again until after the new year, Have a safe and happy New Years. Wow, man those sunglasses are so shiny I could actually see my reflection in them on the other side of my Ipad. LOL.
Misty thank you much for covering the best 10 dishes of 2024. Wishing you and your son a very Merry Christmas and God Bless you and your family. 💖💖🙏🙏🎄🎄🌺🌺🙏🙏💖💖
I appreciate you try and share these fairly unknown eateries. There are so many good cooks out there that not many give a chance. Good to know those chefs from Paesano are still around. We used to eat there a lot when we worked at UH.
I'm drooling now, thanks. But seriously, thanks for letting us know all the in's and out's of each place and why it was ranked as it was. Makes a difference!
Misty, great year end list! I have not tried any but there are definitely several that are now on my to do lists for when next on island. Thanks for the tips! Looking forward to new foodie and other adventures you want to share with us in 2025. Happy New Year!
Awesome video, Misty! You know, I pass by the PC Industrial entrance every Friday and keep telling myself to go to this truck (since your original video) but so far haven't done it. I'll make it one of my resolutions! Have a great new year, and make more great videos!!!
Thanks to you, I have tried some great places that I probably would never have gone to. I still dream of the lasagna at Fratelli’s Express, and I recently went to Kotetsu Chaya (fried oysters - yum!). Still hoping to get to Black Shamrock and GiAilex some day. Happy Holidays to you and Aiden!
thanks for all your hard work during the year saw places to go n try yes i will miss jun bo used to eat there all the time i worked downtown hope they open again soon
Wishing you and your son a very Happy New Year. Thank you for your top 10 list of 2024. We will be returning to Oahu in September 2025 and I've already commenced my list of "Misty's Food Places". We will still be returning to some of your previous recommendations which we visited in September and October this year. Another sandwich shop which we have visited on multiple occasions is Mala Market in Hawaii Kai.
Aloha Annie! Thank you for watching and making a list of the places that interest you. I am so glad you are returning in 2025. So many places and so little time. I will try to go to Mala Market. Heard great things about it. 🤙
Misty, I can't believe you were able to narrow the list down to your top 10! That must've been hard! Thanks for another great year of vlogs! Merry Christmas to you and your Ohana and thanks so much for the Christmas card! Big hugs sis! ❤🤙❤️
I just saw the 2023 best restaurants video of your's a few days ago! I'm glad I caught this 2024 one fresh off the grill 😂 Hopefully Jun Bo finds a new spot to open - looked 🔥 And Tia's looked interesting too
I was in a death metal band at age 16 when we used to play clubs. Now that's not legal since you're probably not allowed in a club at that age. I recorded two albums in Boston. And then played as a guitarist for Missing Dave at the Wave Waikiki and the club on Coyne Street every weekend in my 20s. Now I'm old and don't even pick up the guitar. I play guitar, bass and drums and played drums in a reggae band that never ended up playing in clubs. I play jazz too and like country music. I'll play anything mostly. I also used to DJ trance and house music in Waikiki. I talked about it in my first question and answer video here: th-cam.com/video/N59ZKWjkkto/w-d-xo.htmlsi=xRH1bAnnzdmN62Fr
A great reminder for me to get to The Cutlery (I'll be in Kaimuki more with family in town), so I'll suggest we go there for dinner. I just went to Str'Eats of Aloha last week and love Fratelli's (I wonder if it is part of a chain because I've heard of Fratelli's on the mainland?). Gotta try GiAilex...Ive been out there a couple times but never have time to stop and try it. Thanks again for checking all these places out and all the other places you go to.
@@titasmom678 Mahalo Carol! I don't think the Fratelli's here is a chain as Ming said it was made by the former employees of Paesano. Yes try Gialex. It was so good. I think the Cutlery would be a great family dinner. 🤙
I have not tried Michel's but always had it on my list even in my 20s. But back then I couldn't afford it. I'll try to make it a point to go. I always wanted to try.
@@sammatsusaka823 I try not to be in a hospitals LOL. I heard about Castle now serving meat. I was in the ICU for a month in a half in Kapiolani in 2014 and the food was great. So I think hospital food is good considering back in the day it was gross. Straub has a great cafeteria since it's one close to work as you know what I do. But I usually eat home lunch. I know Queen's has amazing food considering it's hospital food. I did try the Food Company and it made my top 10 in 2023. I like it and the prices. I hope your wife is doing better now. 🤙
Thanks for the breakdown! Could you help me with something unrelated: I have a SafePal wallet with USDT, and I have the seed phrase. (alarm fetch churn bridge exercise tape speak race clerk couch crater letter). What's the best way to send them to Binance?
Thanks for sharing!❤ I have a quick question: I have some TRC20 USDT in my TokenPocket wallet, and I have a 12-word recovery phrase: iron observe slam major mad decorate feed photo awesome vast kitchen faint. What steps do I need to follow to transfer the USDT to my Binance account?🤔
Have you even tried it? Others may suck but I thought it was good and better than some restaurants I've tried in Boston's Little Italy. Arancino di Mare is also a great Italian restaurant here.

Aloha Ed. Thank you for watching and commenting on my videos. Happy New Year to you.
GiAlex -George makes incredible plate lunches. He is a very talented chef and we really enjoy his offerings. Nice guy and very soft spoken.
Yes he is nice but quiet. He is a mean chef! That's why he's my #1!

I can attest the cutlery when my wife and I visited was a positive experience. We loved every moment eating there.
I'm glad you and your wife enjoyed the food and atmosphere at the Cutlery!
Everything looks super Ono - thanks for the recommendations!
You're welcome 🤙
Hope you had a great Christmas

Lol. Yes i hope Jun Bo reopens. That was mean grinds at an affordable price. And definitely check out Tia's. Especially the corned beef.
Hi Misty, I love the choices you’ve made for top 10 of 2024. I hope one day I can try his lechon kawali .
Hi Dorothy! I hope you can too! I think you'd enjoy his food! 🤙
it's super cool that you represent places that are not necessarily in town. being in the waipahu area, i feel seen! :)
I try to go all over the place. There's tons of great eats outside of town. And I try to avoid Waikiki. It's usually not my thing.
now I have a bucket list of spots!! mahalos
Yay! 🤙
Theres a bunch of these i haveny tried yet. The shrimp katsu at streats is awesome.
Yes that is sooooo good! 🤤
happy aloha friday!! 🤙🏾
Happy Aloha Friday and Happy New Year!

I was told YOU WERE IN A HEAVY METAL BAND? Rock On!!!!
I was in a death metal band at age 16 when we used to play clubs. Now that's not legal since you're probably not allowed in a club at that age. I recorded two albums in Boston. And then played as a guitarist for Missing Dave at the Wave Waikiki and the club on Coyne Street every weekend in my 20s. Now I'm old and don't even pick up the guitar.

Thank you!
Thanks for the list, now make one for Kauai 🤔 😂 🤙
Lol I wish. One day I'll visit but only for a day. It's so expensive to find a hotel there.
Fratelli Express has become my new favorite Italian restaurant!
Gotta get that “Misty’s Combo” again!😛
I'm so glad you like the food there Vince! Have a Happy New Year!

‘Eh Misty,
HAPPY NEW YEAR to you too‼️

Did you try Hospital Food? Castle Hospital serves meat, now. Since you're there, try the Food Company.

Are you on the right page?
top 10? Like top 1000. Italian food sucks in Hawaii. Why would you choose that?
Have you even tried it? Others may suck but I thought it was good and better than some restaurants I've tried in Boston's Little Italy. Arancino di Mare is also a great Italian restaurant here.
Great job on the video Misty! See tonight if not busy! Gonna meet up with Leroy to kill some time waiting for his wife. LOL anyway, ahuihou for now!
Aloha Brian! I'll probably be on of course. See you later on tonight. Have fun with Leroy!
