Hi Von! Thanks for the video. I live in Kalihi and have never ate at any of the places that was presented. Can't wait to try them.
Parents went here when they were in Highschool, Megs is OG. The old school diner yellow sauce burgers are the OG thing to get forsure from MEGS.
aloha im addicted to your channel i miss oahu and all the amazin foods
i grew up there as well but had to move 9 years ago
its so good to see ur uploads and be a part of all your foodie adventures love love love it all
i was so happy to see the kalihi grinds content especially cause the park you stopped at was in pauoa valley where i grew up
thank you for all ideas on food places to check out when i come visit at the end of April 2023

So much ono grindz in kalihi!🤙🏻🤤
Again with the best content!!!😊 please keep the videos coming.
Mahalo Jason! 🤙🏻
Always love it when Yvonne's along. Take care at school! Such OG grindz at Meg's. Soul Chicken and Hana Tea looked so ono. The stew my dad made was a mix of tomato and curry.
Kalihi is my hood 🗿 nuuanu okazuya is one of my favorites downtown along with mei sum dim sum as well heading that side from kalihi. Lets get it!! Deep insights from YVonne as always!!
Edit: my favorite Kalihi spot is Gulick delicatessen. If you go when they are about to close, they load the to go box up heavy with extra portions. But they run out of a lot by then. Either way its my classic go to in kalihi 🙏🤙
Got skillshare sponsership!? Yall straight ballin already! Stay up!!
Mahalo for watching and supporting John🤙🏼 We love Guick too! We have it on our to do list! Just gotta find a day to go🤤 Definitely not ballin 😆😆😆 haha
Gimmee that mac salad, beef stew and hamburger steak. And yeah more gravy all ova'! Local Hawaiian grindz are so ono. Y'all represent and are such great ambassadors for local businesses. On another note. Today I heard that Hawaii is scaling back with restrictions once again due to covid. Local businesses need the tourist and local dollars more than ever to stay alive. While I can't be there this year, my mother and both sisters will be in september and they support local kine businesses. Then again they are also addicts to ABC stores. Love y'all. Mahalo!
Mahalo for the support and kindness Robert Leslie🤙🏻 local kine grindz no can beat! So much nostalgia and comfort🤤
Cool hair Yvonne!!! Yet another awesome video 🤗 Ayyyeee, you guys got sponsored again! That Korean chix brought me back to the days when I was in South Korea for a summer. On to watch the next video now 😁
Love your cheap eats video! Enjoy it and very fun. As an ABC “American Born Chinese” asian kid growing up that beef stew is an OG dish. Love seeing Da Von! She is fun. Can’t wait until the next video.
Mahalo for watching and support Bonita🤙🏼Glad you enjoy our cheap eats series!🤤
Well You're An American Born Chinese, Meet An American Born African.
Meg’s, stick to da Katsu! Gonna try da new chicken place. Always look forward to your videos. The Vonn gets right to da point! Awesome job. Really appreciate you guys! Da mega foodies! Go local! Aloha 😎🤙🏾
Mahalo for watching and supporting Michael Soule! 🤙🏼Loved getting all the nostalgic local kine grindz at Megs!🤤
Another banger of a video!! Aloha!! 🤙🤙
Can't wait to try Meg's when my husband and I go visit in October, If all goes well with Covid. Miss Von just love to listening to you ! You three are great! Thank you for all you do! Love your bloopers!
Glad you enjoyed the bloopers and da Von! Mahalo for watching and supporting Christine! 🤙🏼

Yes, please do add dessert!
I’ve been getting all of my friends and family to watch your videos. I tout you as the best Hawaii food guides! They come back from vacation raving about your recommendations! Even better than family and friends recommendations! And who gets the credit for finding you guys…me! So thanks for the great reviews!
Hi guys love your videos ! We will be in Oahu next month. Can wait to try some of the places you have share.
Awesome! Mahalo for supporting🤙🏻
Thank you for another great video! I heard Meg's locomoco is really good too. Maybe next time. For sure, gravy over.
Gravy all ova!
Great vid guys, I like your shirt Felix!
Mahalo for watching and supporting Luke! 🤙🏼Hope school is going well!
More Von🙏 She is fun and I really like her food review 😀
She tries to tag along when she can! Mahalo!
Man, making me miss Meg’s. Loved their hamburger steak with gravy all over. Steamed fish was mean too. Originally was Opakapaka but later was just “fish”
Really enjoy Von’s presence!!!
Mahalo!
Aloha you guys ! Awesome to hear your input "Da Von " I love Local Talk ! Nostalgic Foods at Meg's Drive Inn Onolicious ! Korean Eats my Favorite...you know they double fry their chicken! I love the wingets !!! Hana Tea yummy goodness ! Funny Bloopers !
Mahalo for always watching and supporting Gail! 🤙🏼We're so glad you enjoy hearing us talk story and eat onolicious local kine grindz🤤
Great videos can’t wait to get there in a couple weeks….. we are going to be seriously Hungry!
Steamed fish is easy to make! I make the ginger and onion steamed fish or the black bean steam fish. We don’t have opakapaka which is great for steaming but our California calico bass or kelp bass is outstanding. You guys should try making it at home! Whole fish or filllets give different dining experiences. The only down side is putting the hot oil on the fish after steaming. The oil splatters everywhere. Tough to keep the kitchen clean!you should try!
Another home run from the dynamic trio. Good luck going back to teaching, Vonn - stay safe.
Mahalo Ken! 🤙
You know what they say when you drop food… someone else wanted it😂😂
Von was a great addition, yes she get ʻum down!
We luve on Kauaʻi , and we like you guys so we can find da ono stuff!
Mahalo nui loa & keep on going!🤙🏽❤️🙏🏼
Another great local eats video. Hope the rollback restriction won’t affect these local businesses. Thanks Amanda&Felix.😘
For me, best katsu on the island, hands down, is Tamafujii. I could eat there all day long, every day.
I have to head down to Costco later today so I'll check out that Chicken place since it is just down Dillingham. (And I prefer drumlets to wings.)
And, nice hair Vons! :-) I like the two-tone color. The class I teach starts in another week so I'm crazy busy prepping my lectures, so I sympathize with your impending busy-ness. You got this!
If you do try it, we hope you enjoy it! And yes! Tamafuji is the best for japanese pork katsu! We've been wanting to go back but the long wait always discourages us! We had no idea you do teaching too! Wow🥳 The vons been so busy, especially with all the new regulations😰
Luv luv luv your videos stay sweet stay humble lol hi sister.
Oh My Goodness!!! Ms. Leeeeeee! Ms. Le was my English teacher this year, this is so surprising to catch her on a TH-cam video. You guys forgot to include Diners, a local and cheap place.
That beef stew looks amazing. Beef stew and rice.👍
So nostalgic! 😋😋😋
Man now I'm dying for that fried chicken! I love it when the Von rides along 😍
It’s funny to me that you guys say “Drive Ins” to what I know as DINER, for me Drive In is an open air cinema (huge parking like area and at the front there is a huge screen where movies are projected on, they give you radio station so you can here the sound of the movie in your car sound system) the Drive In also has a commissary area and restrooms. Just wanted to share that with you guys 😊. Thank you for taking is along on your “foodie rounds” 😊
I always pass this place!
Gotta try that Chicken Katsu!
I ,like the Flats of the wings! Love KFC Korean fried chicken!
So yummy! 🤤
@@AmandaFelixEats my nephew took me to Soul Chicken & also got milk tea yesterday! It was really ono! Thanks for sharing! I’m visiting from Vegas for a month! Haven’t been home in 6 years so I’m excited to try as many places on your videos! 😋💜
@@ladymurasaki370 Welcome back home! Glad you enjoyed it🤙🏼
It’s Swai fish.
[Steamed fish],
you’ll need:
* 2 scallions
* fresh ginger, about 2 tablespoons julienned
* 1 small bunch of cilantro
* 1 ½ tablespoons soy sauce
* 1/8 teaspoon salt
* 1/8 teaspoon sugar
* 2 tablespoons water
* 1 filet of Swai fish Or Sea bass
* 2 tablespoons Peanut oil
Julienne the scallion and ginger and set aside. Give the cilantro a rough chop and set that aside as well.
Combine the soy sauce, salt, sugar and water
into a small bowl and mix well. Set that aside.
Carefully lay your fish out onto a heatproof plate…
Mahalo for the recipe and cooking instructions Jean! We gotta try it! 🤙
You’re Welcome!
Good to see the side view of the Chicken Katsu Moist! Will go back. Used to order Veal Cutlet, Love those Patties. in the past they used to serve it like Beef Cutlet
So Ono! Poor Grace's Drive inn held the crown for years as the best Chicken Katsu. Not sure if they're around anymore. The original location on the Corner of Alakea
and Beretania was a good Grace's. Thanks for your honesty Von, i look forward to your no hold punches reviews. Amanda, Felix keep it coming!
This was a fun video hahahaha….lots of food and street noise traffic 😆😆🤪🤪. What’s up The Vonne 🤙🏽. All in all great video…thank you!…you all take care and stay safe.
We're so glad you enjoyed this episode! Take care and be safe as well! Mahalo! 🤙
Daaamn, Amanda.
Wow, da beef stew looked MEAN! Long time since I had some good local beef stew. Gotta try get da recipe from my mom. Awesome video, as always!
Very nostalgic!
I love watching you guys. Can you just do a reality show lol. Definitely have to check out the fried chicken place. We will be there in a few weeks!
LOL! We're not entertaining enough for a reality show😆😆 We hope you enjoy Soul Chicken if you check them out!
Love Hana Tea. Heeretea and S7 Icy Bubble are also good, both close by too.
They are good! 👌
Wow I need that chicken katsu/beef stew plate 😍
Must try! Was ono😋
Yvonne deserves her own food review channel. Don't worry Amanda. I'm not quitting on you!👍💞
She's here to stay! 😅
I love old school plate lunches, but I did think you underordered at the first place. I could have eaten all of those plates by myself, I'm glad you got those chicken pieces. They looked really good, but I would have wanted some fries to go with them. I love Chicken Katsu, it has always been one of my go tos. Although now I'm doing curry instead of brown gravy.Mahalo and Aloha.
Can't go wrong with katsu curry 👌 we definitely under ordered at megs!
WOW...Brings back alot of Memories!..didnt know they still around..My sister worked there in the mid 80's and i used to go there and eat for free lol...hamburger steak was my favorite, but i like katsu from diners down the street then...Thank you so much for your time for showing us all these great places that are still around!...Left kalihi almost 30yrs ago!..c/o1990 Farrington Governors!..Cheeehooo!..
Wow free food from Megs?! We'd be there every day! 😂 Diners sadly got bought out 😔
Diner's chicken katsu was the bestest! Katsu with a strawberry soda was the default Diner's order. Remember when there was a Diner's on Keeamoku where Walmart is now. God I am old 🙂.
Hi Yvonne🤙
👋
Da Von yessah fan. Love the hair colors
Looks so tasty 🤤 I’m definitely a drum it 👍🏻
Drum life 👌
All the way😎🤙🏻 😋🍗
my fave at megs is their beef stew its the best
It was good!
I love wings and drums
For chicken katsu try North Shore Grinds in Kaimuki. Nice variety on they menu too.
Ooh heard of it but never been! Great suggestion, mahalo!🤙🏻
We may not look local enough, but we might try that place anywayz. Another 👍 up on your vid. So glad you guys met up with Jaycation.
They are worth checking out! 🤙
Definitely the drum
🤤
Hi Amanda and Felix. Just got back from the island and I recommend you trying J Dolans pepperoni pizza and wings and aloha kitchen. They’re Kalua pork eggs Benedict is delicious.
Yeah get those grindz
Not even waiting to watch the video to comment about Megs. Huge portions and the old- fashioned hamburgers with the infamous mayo mustard sauce. Thanks for showcasing this old time drive inn. Surprised it wasn't busier.
Meg's is OG! We had no idea they had such a cult following!🤙🏼Ono, comfort local kine grindz🤤
As a Kaneohe local you guys gotta do a 96744 video. My top in Ktown is Masa & Joyce, Gotz Grindz, Megumi Okazuya, Kalawe Cafe, and El Mariachi. You got Hoomaluhia Botanical Garden to eat the food at, also for the sick background!
Mahalo for all the suggestion Kyle!🤙🏼 Always looking for places to add to our foodie list!
Da Von!! 😂😂👏🏽👏🏽
I lived in kalihi and never been there! Planning to go b4 they close for good
I would love to see some of your favorite spots to eat inside of Ala Moana Mall! Went to Singmatei in the food court today and so good 😋
Possible video idea! 👌
Stew bowl quarter pound burger jumbo green river my go to at Megs nice video guys
We missed out on the green river😱😱😱
Ive been hearing that Palisades Drive Inn has Ono chicken katsu! Maybe you guys can check that place out one day 😋
