Zippy's

Thoughts: Can't tell by the picture, but this is my favorite dish at Uncle Bo's. It's encrusted shrimp in a spicy cream sauce.

Thoughts: They have sucha variety and even their pizza is delishhh!

I'm biased because my friend works at Uncle Bo's, but seriously the food is amazing!!! And the service is outstanding! The owner Ho-Suk runs the best customer service in Oahu and he's very passionate about the quality and taste of the food. Great spot to grab a drink as well!

Ono Hawaiian Food

Thoughts- The chicken was very soft and juicy, and was not a fan of the purple taro stuff in the background (forgot what it's called). 

 Leonard's Bakery

Picture: Malasadas

Thoughts: This place is very popular and famous. Known for their malasadas, which are like deep fried donuts coated with sugar. They come in different fillings as well like custard, chocolate, coconut, and etc. The custard one is the best!

Soul de Cuba Cafe

Picture: Appetizer plate of Samosa

Thoughts: this place was sooo delicious! I liked everything we ordered!!

Costco

Picture: After beach snack at Costco- spicy ahi sushi with a side of fresh wasabi tuna. 

Thoughts: honestly the best food I ate in hawaii has got to be the freshhhh AHI tuna!! U can basically get it at costco or even safeway by weight. And they usually have it in wasabi, shoyu (soy sauce), or plain. The tuna is super fresh and melts in your mouth!
