    I dig how Lucas focuses on describing the food and not saying, "Wow! This is amazing." like every other foodie. Even if it is or isn't. He kind of paints a picture of the food and it slightly makes me feel like I can taste it from home. I think a lot of people are misunderstanding his descriptions as if he doesn't like it at all. Has anyone tried explaining a food they've eaten without repeating words over and over. So he takes a second to put together his sentences in order to give us a show that we enjoy watching and isn't repetitive over the past whatever amount of seasons.

      David Nguyen on point. that's why Lucas is my fav food host/critic. no over the top pseudo orgasmic mouth open idiotic facial expressions...just descriptive analysis of the food in a laid back matter. Lucas rocks...and he prob got an eyefull when he was ordering...lol

    • @goldcd
      @goldcd 7 ปีที่แล้ว +3

      David Nguyen I couldn't agree more.
      It's a doomed task trying to describe food, hence most food shows mainly covering the history, story, location - and then just saying "the food is great"
      I love Lucas for actually managing to (or at least taking a running jump at doing so) describe it, and then add his personal thoughts.

    by his mannerism and delayed reactions you can see that the food is not really that good, so he just mainly describes it

    So I'm raised and still live in Kahuku I can look out of my window and literally see this place from my house... this entire time I never knew people could go up this hill I should check it out sometime.
    Also
    0:45 seconds the map is marked as "Kahuku" but the location of the red star is far off. The star looks like its in the Waimea area hahaha Kahuku is literally the very tip northern tip.

    I just had the brisket there on vacation.... best I have ever had. At $15 you can't complain about price, it would cost at least that here on the mainland and it was wayyyyyy better. Check this place out if your on Oahu!!!!

      Yep that from Costco taste pretty good, but shameful, I'm not a expert at bbq, but I could make some better food in the oven. Also there is a better place on the north shore, that serves dat kind bbq, if you know, you know just saying.

      @peepo1460 7 ปีที่แล้ว +4

      Yep been disappointment so far with his visit to Hawaii, he's been to places that aren't so great, and there so many better spot on the island that serve better food. Also there is another bbq place that serves Texas style bbq and so much better then that place.

    • @trumanton7936
      @trumanton7936 7 ปีที่แล้ว +1

      the show is about cheap eats. They may not be the best most popular places, but maybe they are cheaper and known better by locals. idk though

    • @peepo1460
      @peepo1460 7 ปีที่แล้ว

      So far only one of the places he been to has been cheap eats, the others not so cheap.

      @Justin Swan, you can see rice on the styrotainer when they're putting on the meat at 2:02
      That being said, I can understand the criticism. I generally enjoy all episodes of Dining on a Dime, but this episode maybe wasn't their best.
      Even Lucas didn't seem like he was super into the food. Ah well, they can't all be homeruns.

    +eltubo242 AGREED! Luc sounded like he was just disappointed and wasted his time suffering through the weather for BS tasteless food. He's already had authentic Hawaiian food and then had to downgrade (must be so sad). That's how I feel going into overrated places where the avg. customer just likes anything with salt and pepper "and maybe some paprika too."
