I have a suggestion, take all your bloopers and add them as a blooper reel at the end of each video, then the best bloopers of the year, love your videos.keep it up!!!
It’s funny how you said you were glad it was authentic and they didn’t put pineapple in it because Al pastor tacos traditionally have pineapple added to it.
We are i. Waikiki. We went to Jolene`s and Ro was the sweetest person took are pictures and everything.
As somebody who grew up eating Mexican food guys those tacos look like real deal too me now I want me some tacos thanks guys
Definitely not Taco bell crap. Lol
I'm glad they look like the real deal! Hawaii has really expanded their Mexican food scene! Thanks for watching🤙🏼
I had a cat named Felix, he was a big goof ball too 😻🤣
Giovanni's is just Costco shrimp, should go to Fumis or Romys in Kahuku
Finally! Local TH-camrs who know where to go for local ono grinds on Oahu especially the mom and pop places!! Keep it up! ❤️
Thank you for watching and supporting! We are proud to be born and raised here and repping locals on the TH-cam Platform🤙🏼
No flies at the Giovanni’s at HMart ... $15/plate - $1 more but you get clean tables/chairs, clean restrooms, air conditioned environment, and no bugs! If we go to the Haleiwa one, we would take our food to MacDonald’s (across the street), buy some drinks, eat there, and use their restroom facilities. TIP: If you buy six snow puffies, you’ll get 10% off when you unlock the offer on the Yelp app!
Awesome TIp! We did not know about that🤤 Mahalo for watching🤙🏼
@@AmandaFelixEats LOL I’ll volunteer to help if six snow puffies are too much for you to handle 😉BTW ... You two are soooo adorable 🥰
@@grandmax4 Mahalo Judy! Definitely need your help eating those snow puffies🤤
I had no idea there was one there! Thank you!
Judy....If you wanna eat your lunch plates at another place, suggest buying drinks at 7-11 across Haleiwa Joe's then drive to Haleiwa boat harbor or Ali'i Beach...Better scenery & NOMO Flies...Justa thoight!
You guys need to try our crepes food truck, The North Shore Crepes Cafe, next to Giovannis. The best crepes on the north shore. You were right there, you missed us. Our Waikiki dessert crepe with nutella, strawberries and bananas, ice cream, whip cream, chocolate sauce and powdered sugar.
Sending you big ass hugs from California!!!🥰🤙🏽✌🏽
Mahalo Win! 🤙
I would have skipped Giovanni's and gone straight to Surf n Salsa. Al pastor tacos all day long! Another great video. Mahalo y'all!
Thanks for watching🤙🏼 Definitely check them out!
I’ve enjoyed your videos so much! My husband and I will be in Oahu in 12 days. I cannot wait.
Awesome! Hope you enjoy! Mahalo for watching🤙🏼
I cannot wait to move back home this summer. Will be so happy to get good Mexican on island. ❤
I agree Amanda I LOVE eatting at the beach🤗
if the visitors go visit Paalaa Kai Bakery, they also need to go next door to Paalaa Kai Store and buy their ready made spam musubi and fried chicken...ono !!! Good Yelp reviews for both places. Amanda and Felix took Kaukonahua Rd once they passed Wahiawa to get to Haleiwa and Waialua, which is a curvy 2 lane road..a LOT of deaths over the years as you will see by the markers left on the sides...if you want a more straighter way, go by way of Kamehameha Hwy.(still a two lane highway) to those spots mentioned. The snow puffies are like baklavas...creamy custard filling...think they have increased in price to almost $3 each--- you should try their malasadas there...already made, but surprisingly good !
Thanks for letting our viewers know! Mahalo for watching🤙🏼
We head there today...and we tried all your suggestions...from giovanni’s to the snow puffy...great choice,delicious foods..just wanna add...steak quesadilla in surf and salsa is the best quesadilla ever...full of cheese...yummy...thanks for the suggestion
Awesome! Happy you enjoyed it🤤 Definitely need to try the quesadilla next time! Mahalo for watching🤙🏼
My wife and I have been watching your channel for the past month now and just really like your content. Thanks and keep up the good work. We’re actually heading out there next week for almost a week and will be trying some of the places you’ve talked about. Thanks for the suggestions!
Awesome! Thank you for watching and supporting!🤙🏼 Hope you enjoy the many food places when you're here🤤
Here for our third time thanks to your awesome videos!! Mahalo for all the great finds 😊
I love Ted's where the side order of bacon is like 1/2 lb., must try Ray's Kiawe chicken. Best huli huli chicken on the island, weekends in a dirt lot next to the market in Haleiwa.
Ray's Kiawe Chicken, added to to do list! Thanks for watching and suggesting🤙🏼
@@AmandaFelixEats...Ray's chicken also in Wahiawa, across Tanya's Grill & Pies, on Tues/Fri. MUST try Tanya's pies....
Yumm Surf & Salsa my favorite for Mexican on Oahu. Been going there since they opened, they have gotten very well known over the yrs
Had to watch this I missed snow puppies LOVE and GOD BLESS You 😙⚘⚘⚘⚘⚘⚘💜💙💋
Oh, man , I miss the North Shore! Gotta try Paalaa Kai Bakery. I love me some Ted’s Bakery though!
Yes definitely a must try when you're on that side! Mahalo for watching🤙🏼
Haleiwa, yes, I remember as a young kid some of the taro farmers in Hanalei used to send some bags of tare to Haleiwa because there used to be a poi mill somewhere there. My dad used to send his taro bags to Waiahole poi mill. I remember it being just a shack. Today along the roadside there is a restaurant; real tourist spot. Up the road is where the poi mill used to be. Next time I'm on Oahu I'm going to make it a point to visit Paalaa Kai bakery. I see that PhotoLukeHawaii drops by there once in awhile.
We love Waiahole Poi factory too! The line is always so long! Hope you can check Paalaa Kai Bakery out when you come back! Mahalo for watching🤙🏼
FYI....Haleiwa Poi Factory used to be approx.150 yds. in, on Paalaa Rd. Turn onto Paalaa at McDonald's, which was the venerable Haleiwa Theater, up until 1979-80 or so
There are very few channels where i can stand listening to them when they eat. Y'all are ones i can actually watch so well done 💕
What a compliment🥰 Mahalo for watching and supporting us🤙🏼
@@AmandaFelixEats y'all are so welcome!! My family and I are flying out there mid April and thanks to y'all I have so many scrumptious things I'm going to try. 💕
@@freedomgardener1854 Mahalo for supporting local while you're here!🤙🏼
Those pastries must be the best kept secret, but now I know😁. thanks guys!
We went here today and got the angel puff. It was light and crispy. Not too sweet. Perfect snack. Thanks for the upload guys
Yes it is paragliding 🤗Yes Enjoy Your Videos always even the replays much LOVE and ALOHA GOD BLESS You Both💙💙💜💙💜💙💜💙💜💙💜💙💜
Idea...Micro Brew tour...Happy Hour crawl...rate Shave Ice places. Stay safe!!
Just turn off the dislikes! You don’t need them! You’re great!
Aloha David and Barbara! You are AWESOME! Your comment brightened our day❤️ Thank you for your kind and positive comment and for watching us🤙🏼
Thanks for the informative videos. My mom and I will be there next month and we love watching your videos. Keep them coming!
Mahalo for the super thanks! 🙏🤙
We arrived at the North Shore this afternoon, and after walking to the beach from our rental to spend a half hour there, we returned to the house to review this video, which I had watched several weeks ago. Now that we're here, I needed a refresher to take notes on the places you reviewed. We'll be hitting Haleiwa tomorrow. Giovanni's will be the first meal stop. Since we'll be staying on the North Shore for 5 days, we plan to sample every one of your recommendations. Thanks for making it so easy for us.
I love Giovanni’s garlic shrimp! They’re the best! Also loveSnow Puffs! I haven’t tried the tacos because usually I’m to full after the shrimp!
One of your best. Found neat places to eat and that bakery!
Mahalo for watching and those kind words🤙🏼
We just drove to north shore today for the weekend, we will go to kahuku tonight for dinner and will try the shrimp. We went to Ken fish for lunch and had ahi katsu, wish I could share a picture with you
That sounds ONO! no picture needed, my mouth is watering🤤🤤 Thanks for watching🤙🏼
That “ puffy” taco looked amazing! Great reviews!
You guys love your deserts
Mostly Amanda😆 Thanks for watching🤙🏼
I tried Giovanni & aloha shrimp truck today and aloha tasted way better. More flavor. But to each their own.
That sounds awesome! We'll have to go and try it now! Thanks for letting us know! & Mahalo for watching🤙🏼
Definitely going to North shore now because of you guys! Love love love your review of the places you eat. Thank you for sharing your good experiences😊
Mahalo for watching🤙🏼 Hope you enjoy🤤
Love your adventures love and missed Oahu 👍❤️
Giovannis’s is the way to go in that area. You can’t go wrong with Giovanni’s. Then get that warm taro beignets @ Uncle Bo’s Pupu Bar & Grill.
🤙🏻
Thanks for delivering the lovely Hawaiian vibes via yummy food, scenic beaches, with a rooster track to boot!🐓
So glad you enjoyed! Mahalo for watching🤙🏼
Aloha and Mahalo Amanda & Felix for this video! I grew up in west side of Oahu, graduated in 86' married a haole boy and then came to mainland in 1997. Missed the North Shore waves body surfing when I was young. Bumbai I come home one day. Sub and always thumb up. Keep up the contents and I am catching up to all your videos. Love the Bloopers real local da kin funny. ❤
Nice Felix n Amanda I’m going to go there tomorrow
Oh also, what Felix said about the Mexican place and how if they do tacos well, everything else is good. I was gonna say that about dim sum last time. It is said that if a dim sum place makes a great har gau, then everything else is good since har gau is probably the most popular dim sum item.
Totally loving your foody adventures. Tempted to make that trek to the North Shore. You are challenging us to step out of our comfort zone 😷 and support our local restaurants again ❤ Yum
Mahalo for watching🤙🏼We're glad you getting out there and help supporting our local restaurants! Hope you enjoy!
Can't wait to try all of these places when I get there in May. I love your channel.
Hope you enjoy when you're here! Thanks for watching🤙🏼
Snow poppies looks good🤗
I have been binge watching your videos for the past couple nights...all the way from Jacksonville FL. I miss home (grew up in Kalihi) and watching you eat all those delicious foods and desserts makes me sooo envious. 🤤 You both are funny and cute. Happy to subscribe. 😊
Aloha Leina! Thank you for watching and subscribing🤙🏼Glad we can bring a bit of home to you through TH-cam!
tweet tweet! another great food run!
You're the best! BIG MAHALOZ🤙🏼
We always get shrimp scampi with hot sauce on the side :)
I’ll be there on Wednesday
You made it there! Oh man, I am trying all of that next weekend! Thanks for the video!
We did🤤 Mahalo for watching🤙🏼
Everything looks amazing!!!
We have so many places to try because of you two!💕
Aloha Cathleen! Hope you and Randy can enjoy food on Oahu🤙🏼
Amanda SAME! Sometimes when nothing sound good I get a side of rice, a side of beans, and maybe some tortillas.
I'm also lucky to live in San Diego (the birthplace of Tacos El Gordo) where we got the good good Mexican Food
First congratulations on 3K subscribers. You guys are doing a great job. First as a local, I love the jump cut from Aiea to Schofield in a blink. Been to the shrimp truck and Paalaa Kai before so thumbs up to those places. Great find with the surf-n-salsa place. Recommend spending a day in Wahiawa from Dong Yang to Shige's to Kilani Bakery and their botanical gardens and beautiful cherry blossom trees. Keep it going gang!
Mahalo Tom! Wahiawa is definitely a low key foodie town! Thanks for the suggestions🤤 Adding to to do list🤙🏼
OMG Amanda you are so right. We were in Hawaii months ago and we tried both plates at Giovannis. The garlic scampi was the same, very tasty, but the spicy sauce was different from what we remembered. Back in the day, it was really, really good. Tried it again and it was some kind of Tabasco tasting concoction. Not good at all and the Tabasco smell was so strong. And I like Tabasco btw! Anyhow thanks for the great video! You guys are becoming the premier local foodies for Hawaii on TH-cam. :)
Love the video! My family and I are taking a ride to the North Shore Friday. Can you (or anyone) tell me roughly where the beach was you guys stopped to watch the waves? Looks like a perfect spot.
excellent post you guyz! you guyz rocken it!
Thank you for watching🤙🏼 glad you enjoyed it!
Amanda & Felix the Snow Puffies is definitely a must try ! It look so onolicious ! Mahalo for sharing the must haves back home !
Mahalo for watching🤙🏼
Thanks for this post. Since the Pandemic I haven’t been out that way but now I gotta try the taco and snow puffies. I’ve never been to that bakery before.
If you like flaky and sweet desserts you'll enjoy it! Mahalo for watching🤙🏼
Another foodie suggestion....Jerry's Pizza Mill in Waialua, close to North Shore Brew & Foam & Waialua Sugar Mill/North Shore Soap Factory...
As I was driving on our way to sharks cove, I saw Paalaa Bakery on my peripherals and made a sharp left turn to get into the bakery. My friends was like wtf then I was like Amanda and Felix recommends this bakery so we have to check it out and glad we did. We had the snow puffs, danish, turnovers, butter rolls, ensaymadas and 2 other pastry I can't remember. Everything was so good and we really enjoyed everything. That's how much you guys influenced our trip to Oahu. Again, Thank you.
Going to try it next month! Can’t wait.
Should have tried the Wailuas Lunch Wagon... Great Video
Shell off for sure.!!!😊
Beautiful beaches the waves are so sooky
Spooky
Yum I’ve been craving Giovanni , I usually get the scampi with hot sauce on the side! And Surf N salsa is one of my fave mexican trucks. Ohhh and Paalaakai bakery is a must.
We cannot leave North Shore without stoppin gby Paalaa Kai Bakery (our family would be so mad!! lol) Thanks for watching🤙🏼
HI, we're a local family! Got me over here wanting to drive around the island lol! Great video. Subbed!
Thank you for watching and subscribing🤙🏼 Welcome to our foodie ohana🥰
Cold front 70 degrees! Yes please! It -7 right now in Minneapolis. You win.
🥶Be safe! Mahalo for watching🤙🏼
I only like Tabasco on scrambled eggs with toast and shell on 🤙🏽
Very friendly blog… i love it..🇨🇦🇨🇦🇨🇦
You must try ROMYs - their garlic shrimp is like no other... carmelized garlic oh so good Ono-licious!
Romys has the slowest service anywhere had to wait one hour for my food will never go back
@@coffeedrinker90 yes that is true but its because the garlic is carmelized, no where else makes it this way, i think its somewhat of a process.
Thanks so much for the video. We took your advice, and had an amazing food experience on Oahu. We love you both, it kind of feels like we're your friends now : -)
We're glad you you enjoy our videos and your Foodie adventures Mark! Mahalo for watching and supporting us! 🤙
I’m coming over next week from Maui I’d love to go out on a food tour with you.
Thanks for shedding light on local eats! Can’t wait to try the snow puffies 😋
500 likes? It’s over 1k now. Thanks for the tip guys. We lived in SoCal for 35 years and we sure miss some good Mexican eats.
Mahalo for watching🤙🏼Aloha!
@@AmandaFelixEats went there yesterday we’re going back for more Shrimp tacos 🌮 before we head back home. Thank you 🙏🏼
@@play4serve959 So glad you enjoyed it! Mahalo for the support!
Next time you do North Shore please try The Smoking Boar and Coconut and also WickedHI!!
Felix, just an FYI, al pastor is typically made with pineapple and pineapple juice. I'm not talking about pineapple in the taco, but in its marinade and how it's cooked on the upright rotisserie.
Loved it!!!! Thank you so much for this segment. Been wanting Snow Puffies but so awesome we can get lunch from Haleiwa Lunch truck too!!!! Really excited to try the Mexican food🤙🤙🤙
Aloha Amanda & Felix! Another great vlog. As for shrimp, I like them with the shell on (and I eat the shell/tail too!). Have you ever tried the garlic shrimp @ Ted's Bakery and/or Fumi's Kahuku Shrimp, I've heard that both of those places have good garlic shrimp (I've never tried them myself, only Giovanni's which was good). You both deserve the $$ support and will try to do that every so often when I'm able to, you both do so much for all of us here, I've learned about so many places to dine at that I would never have heard about if it weren't for the two of you! Mahalo for all you both do!
Aloha Paula! Thank you for always supporting and watching us🥰 We're just happy that you can enjoy our content!
We've been to Ted's but havent tried their garlic shrimp! We're hoping to do another North Shore Video soon! Mahalo for such kind and positive words🤙🏼
@@AmandaFelixEats Happy Chinese New Year and also Happy Valentine's Day too!
@Paula ... I tried the garlic shrimp at Ted’s ... they give you less shrimp and put Parmesan cheese on it so if you like Parmesan cheese, go for it. Giovanni’s is no ka oi!
@@grandmax4 Mahalo Judy, appreciate the info :)
Omg guys we are addicted to watching you both grind. We coming over Oahu and cant wait to check out all the places you guys go.
Finally have a chance to catch up on your videos after a hard week in college!
Welcome back! Good job getting through a hard week! Thank you for coming back and catching p!!
Aloha Felix and Amanda, I live in Lakewood, CA and I enjoy your video's. Very good video of da onliouse shrimps and taco. But Brah...can you guys slow the driving to the north shore down a little bit?? I like enjoy the view. I miss Hawaii and the North shore.
Aloha Roger! Thanks for watching🤙🏼 We're glad we can bring a bit of home to you through youtube!
Took ten mins for me to watch, start cracking up and subscribe while I start making plans to come back to Hawaii. You guys are the best, off to binge watch my way through your channel!
Mahalo for watching and supporting! We're glad you enjoyed the show! And welcome to our Foodie ohana! 👋🤙💕
Well, looks like our similarity streak ends here as I don't plan to go to the NS anytime soon. But nice to live vicariously through your video! I will say that more and more, you guys seem just like Chonnyday, my other favorite couple. Like Amanda, Dalena really hates flies. Also, you both aren't afraid to GRIND! I love a girl who will EAT and not take two bites and say, "Ohhh, I'm so full already!"
Aww shucks! Hopefully one day we'll run into each other!👍🏼 Others have also said we remind them of Chonnyday and WOW is that a compliment🥰 Mahalo for watching and your positive kind words!🤙🏼
Hi Amanda & Felix! We went to both delicious places today! The garlic shrimp was finger licking good but the spicy shrimp kicked my son’s taste buds. Line was long because it’s a Sunday. No paragliders flew over us while eating the snow puppies though!
Aww shucks, no paragliders?! lol So glad you enjoyed our recommendations! Mahalo for watching and supporting🤙🏼
Ho, yups. Snow puffies is where it's at!
Definitely can't leave North Shore without stopping by! Mahalo for watching🤙🏼
Fumis all day best shrimp tuck out there
Try Jenny's located in haleiwa town. Also kalani bakery for brownie custard pie. Or Tanya's
We tried Surf N Salsa today! We loved it so much. Thank you so much for recommending this amazing establishment. Definitely going back. Absolutely delicious. We ordered their carne asada fries, crunchy taco with steak, soft taco with shredded beef and both soft and crunchy fish tacos. So good! We also ordered their cucumber lemonade and horchata.
Oh man you guys know the $hit! That taco spot looks legit! You know it’s good when the tortilla looks like your grandma made it! Making me so hungry!
Honu is turtle in olelo hawaii love your videos maikai ia oukou aloha
If/when you make another trip to NS, stop by Taqueria El Ranchero, adjacent to Foodland and Barrio Cafe, close to Wahiawa P.O. Both are run by Mexican families from, I think, L.A. & Tx....MUY BUENO!
P.S....Barrio café on Kilani Ave., next to Kilani bakery
I was hoping you guys would stop by Japanese Truck No.7! I met the owner many years ago but I went back couple years ago and the quality is top notch! Just don't order the udon...seriously you will thanks me later for it. I ordered poke, handrails and I forgot what else and it was all an experience sitting outside!
We've heard of that place's amazing reputation! Definitely on our to do list🤤 Thanks for watching🤙🏼
@@AmandaFelixEats I realized that autocorrect destroyed my response! hahaha. Handrolls and not handrails! hahaha.
The garlic shrimp looks yummy! Maybe I’ll go get some tomorrow 😉
Sounds yum🤤 Hope you enjoy! Mahalo for watching🤙🏼
You should try Romy's Shrimp Truck. My husband and I like them better than Giovanni's because they actually grow their own shrimp. They are a shrimp farm as well. Their prawns, when they're available are incredible.
Heading to Hawaii next week, LOTS of great info from your videos, appreciate it! Can't wait.
That was cool at the end!!!! 😁😁🤙🏼🤙🏼
Thank you for watching and staying til the end🤙🏼🤙🏼🤙🏼
I'm craving Giovanni's now 😋
