HONOLULU ONO GRINDZ | We Ate At Some Cool Places! 

Love hearing Leslie offer her articulate opinions. Thank you for taking us along on your Hawaiian adventures. Just like we were there!

The king of Tiny Bubbles, Don Ho, would be proud of you two for representing Hawaii so well. GRIND ON

Thank you Bill and Lisa for the shout out!:) I'm glad you two were able to go to the Liliha Bakery International MarketPlace. They do a great job in balancing a more fancy restaurant with the nostalgia of the original place. And I didn't know how loved Felix is throughout the community. Glad you got the Fried Chicken too. Soo crunchy.😋 Mele Kalikimaka to you and your Ohana👍🎄🤙

I love leslie is getting brave!!!! way to go Leslie!!!

Please do not change your content format! Bill and Lisa are true foodies like most of us. I discovered them during CoVID and I have learned from them that a trip doesn’t have to be a week long or more. And a big part of the trip is experiencing the culture of the area and that means all the local foods. Bill and Lisa I watch your channel because you both showcase your personalities and really share with us a lot of your experiences at the place you visit without all the rehearsed fluff. And because of the two of you I started a separate bucket list for 48 hours or less of travel destinations and I even have 2 short Amtrak trips. And now without twisting my arm I am adding Oahu as a side trip to our Maui trip. So from the bottom of my heart it is with deepest thanks that you have inspired me to venture out to travel again despite all this CoVID stuff. We need to live life and we only live once. And I want to live with a happy belly despite all my food allergies that won’t stop me! Bill and Lisa inspire me that you don’t need much time in one place to have a great experience but the toughest part is to prioritize and make the time to create a memory!!! And we get added bonus of meeting their family and they don’t have to share those private moments but they do. And that’s what makes it memorable to watch them because it’s like you are sitting right next to them eating and chatting. No pressure and no fake stuff on this channel. They give their honest opinions and they are so cute and funny when they make jokes and crack me up!!! Plus Lisa always has nice outfits and Bill has his fancy shirts but their attitudes are out of this world!!! Thanks Bill and Lisa for all the inspiration and fun laughs in 2022! Hope to see more fun adventures in the future!

Love this Hawaii series. Prime rib and fired chicken made my mouth water. Nice to see Leslie get in front of the camera; she did great...she's a natural! I'm glad everybody enjoyed themselves. I know Christopher and Erin hate they had to leave early.

I absolutely love your videos. I will be travelling to Hawaii in 2024 and your videos, for me as a foodie, are very informative. The two of you are just adorable! Thank you for sharing your adventures.

In my opinion, the best mac salad on Oahu is at Ray's Cafe!!! And Felix's prime rib can run with the LV spots any day. Hidden gem indeed!!!

Happy to see you and Lisa enjoying some local Hawaii food and special desserts. I live on the Big Island so many of the places you are dining are not available on the Big Island, especially on the Hilo side. If we do visit Oahu, we do indulge in some of the great eats Honolulu has to offer!!! Enjoy!!! Aloha!!!!

I LOVED this Hawaii series. Thanks for sharing your lives with us!

Thanks for such a great Hawaiian Series Bill, Lisa and Leslie! Really enjoyed seeing all the wonderful different eats, landscape and sights!

Visiting the island over the summer. I will check these places out.

Bill and Lisa! You two love life and all it offers. You are a joy to watch! Till your next adventure! Aloha❤❤

Those short rib thingys, the prime rim, malasadas, Mac salad, oh, I’m so hungry! And in Hawaii- can’t beat that! Thanks for sharing your adventures .

Been binge watching your HI vids to plan for our next visit to the islands! LOVE Sean’s channel, too! He has great vids on the local eats, I need to try them all! Hehe! Ray’s cafe is a must try, it’s on our list along with Jenny’s shrimp truck! ❤

Awww...Great little series...Thank you

I usually dip the onions in the Hawaiian salt when I go to Helena's.

Enjoyed this! We will be going to all the places you ate at!! My hubby grew up there, you opened our eyes to new places!! We can’t wait to try! Thank you!

You all look so happy and healthy. Love seeing Leslie, you are all so fun to watch.

Love the video. I do miss home haven't been back since 86.

Glad to see you on a long vacation! Hope to visit Hawaii soon!

Yes. We love seeing more of Leslie and ALL your kids

Another great video filled with amazing food finds! That cocoa puff is my jam! ❤ Poke bowl for the win! Thanks for sharing your HI adventures with us Bill and Lisa! Happy New Year, cheeeeeers to 2023! 🎆🎊

Thank you for taking us with you to Hawaii. Love all of it,

Thank you for sharing your Hawaii vacation

Merry Christmas, Bill & Lisa (and Leslie)! It's nice to see the wrap-up of your recent Hawaiʻi food tour before the big December storm. You folks are old pros in Hawai'i and always know what to order at the favorite local places (or get good advice on Yelp and from other RU-vid foodie vloggers), and you are familiar with and can appreciate what we locals eat. The only giveaway that you didn't grow up here is you called the malasada flavor "ling hing" instead of "li hing"-- but you also said "ling hing MUI" which is the cracked seed and what many local people automatically call the powder flavor. What's your relationship with Hawai'i besides being frequent visitors and having many eateries with Hawai'i food in Torrance (and Las Vegas)? Do you (did you) have 'ohana here in the islands that we don't get to see?

Love you guys, love seeing more of Leslie

Lau Lau, kalbi, malasadas, and the thick prime rib... pretty good day

Happy Holidays Bill and Lisa Thanks for sharing Hawaii, it's such a beautiful place!!!!

Enjoyed watching your Hawaii vacation series! All the food looks so good & there’s a couple of foodies we need to try! Mahalo for taking us along. 🤙

Merry Christmas 🎅 . Thank you for always sharing your trips.

Merry Christmas! Thanks for taking us along, wish we were in warm Hawaii! Food all looked amazing! Always go to barefoot beach restaurant for lunch but never did dinner and love they have entertainment too!

Loved loved the mini series!!! Thank you for the shoutout! My hubby loved the surprise!! Thanks again for the shoutout and thank you for showing us how beautiful Honolulu is!!

Happy New Year and thank you for you fun entertaining channel ❤️

I love Hawaii. The Beauty is mind blowing. Thank you for sharing your travels with us. ❤️👏🐬🏄‍♀️

We happen to go to Adela's Country Kitchen on Oahu in June. AMAZING. Our favorite island is Maui as we have been there least 5 times but we plan to go back to Oahu just toeat at Adela's! If you ever get a chance, try it. Home made pastas in all kinds of flavors...moringa, ube..etc.

I love traveling with you two! Merry Christmas and Happy New Year

Lol. "If you don't finish it" I don't have that kind of self control.

Aloha Bill, Lisa and Leslie! Mahalo for doing this vlog which highlighted the foods I loved when I lived on Oahu. It made this Christmas Day flavorful and memorable! Felix’s local accent, and the sights of the building, where Ray’s in located, got me missing my old neighborhood - I grew-up in the Kalihi area. Looking forward to the next vlog. Mele Kalikemaka, and much 🧧!

We’re here watching!!! Hoping you and your family have a great Christmas and a blessed New Year.

I love my virtual travels with you guys. So much fun❤

Merry Xmas ...thanks for all the time you two invest in this amazing channel .... giving us all chance to get out even when we can't...let's have an a great 2023

Mele Kalikemaka!!!🎄 What a great foodie video. I'm salivating with that fried chicken! It was sweet of him to give you a t-shirt. Wonderful final shot of that beautiful sunset.

Mahalo Bill and Lisa for these Hawaiian videos!! Can't wait to see where y'all go on your next adventure!!

Your blogs are so fun to watch. I wish you lived in Hawaii and I could watch them always! Hawaii stole my heart so many years ago❤🇨🇦Mahalo and Merry Christmas guys😊

I usually like your videos before watching them because I know it's always going to be fantastic! I was also planning of going to the original Liliha Bakery but ended up going to the one you went to :) I love their mochi donuts. I'll try that cake next time!

Merry Christmas love your show!!!

Bill and Lisa, thanks for all the tips. We can’t wait to get back to Oahu and have some new places to try now ❤.

Love all your foodie picks. I also just started following Sean the beginning of Dec. I believe you guys are the reason I found his RU-vid channel. I wish it was before my Hawaii trip. Glad I follow you both. Merry Christmas 🎄

Loved this series!! I was there at the same time but got sick so I missed out on a lot of what I had planned. Looking forward to seeing lots of the new places you reviewed on my next visit. Please tell us where Rays is at so I can get some of that chicken for my mom and husband. Happy holidays to you both and thank you for all your hard work!!

Must remember to not watch your videos before meal time, lol, always makes me extra hungry! lol. By the way, that Hawaiian sea salt that you were served with your meal is for the Maui onions next to the haupia, you dip that in it. I have occasionally dip the Maui onions in poi and then dip them into the Hawaiian sea salt, it sticks better…but if you like your meat extra salty more power to you, lol. There are so many ways of eating poi, but generally any salty dishes tends to go nice with poi, kalua pig and poi go nicely. Also some people like it fresh like you were eating while some people like it fermented, bit of sour taste.

Merry Christmas Bill and Lisa!

I just stumbled across your channel and after one video I’m hooked! Please don’t stop making great videos maybe come down to Vancouver Canada for some eats! I also subscribed and can’t wait for the next videos🙏🏼❤️

Those were some ono grindz! Mahalo! 🤙🏼❤

one of my goals...Christmas in Hawaii. Bill and Lisa thank you for sharing and Merry Christmas.

Hey Fam I didn’t t get the memo that y’all were going to my favorite place. I lived there for 3 years I love Hawaii.

Awesome year of wonderful videos. Thank you for your personal gestures! ❤️ Happy New Year...." See you" on the RU-vid...YUMMY Stay happy, healthy and safe! 😀

Merry Christmas Bill and Lisa and Leslie.

Merry Christmas Bill and Lisa, Shirley here!!!! Just wanted to wish you and your family a happy holidays and health and happiness for the coming year and always. We flew back from Aulani on the 18th.

Merry Christmas 🙏🏽❤️🎄🎄🎄🎄🎄🎄

“We love local baby”- 👏👏👏

Merry Christmas 🎄 Bill/Lisa And Family ❤

Your videos always make me hungry. Ha hahaha ❤

Merry Christmas Bill & Lisa and family. Really enjoyed all your videos from Hawaii, very entertaining. I just wanted to know how that chantilly cake compares with the Paradise cake at Kings Hawaiian?

Merry Christmas and a happy New year 🎄🎆🍾

Happy belated Christmas and Merry New Year Bill ,Lisa and the family !!! Sorry for the late reply.. that covid/flu bug 🤧🤒 was a doozy. 🍰 😋🍗🥩😋

The food looks fantastic 😍 wow the malasadas always look so tasty, they make me crave em every time. I’m a donut lover and I would eat 6 of those no worries haha. Loving these Hawaiian videos, they are awesome guys. Xx

Great as always! Only thing... the salt at Helena's is to dip the onions in

Try li hing powder or li hing sauce with arare. The local crack seed stores will have them. kaimuki seed store might have it.

When are y’all going back to New Orleans? Love your recommendations for eating places.

That’s my jam 😂

Love your videos! love the chemistry between you two....please do a Filipino food review as well!

Thanks for this vlog! Mele kalikimaka!

MERRY CHRISTMAS FAM GOD BLESS

Mahalo for another good video. FYI, next time you have Hawaiian food, dip the raw onion in the Hawaiian salt, very ono!

Merry Christmas!
