Need some veggies!

Nuff carbs or what?!?

Speaking of food, yesterday we went to the Ohana Marketplace on Ward ave.

We bought some nice face shields but wanted to get Pizza from Garibaldi's!

 

 

Half Spinach Mushroom, half Pepperoni!

It is the BEST pizza I had in a loooong time!

Winnahs!!!

 

 

Across the the pizza place is a Taco place, we got this Elote Corn - another Winnah!

 

 

Sunday 07-26-2020

No surf for me today. I'm staying home to make breakfast and do any last minute hurricane preparations. Fill more water and clean up the yard.

 

I haven't made these breakfast potatoes in a while.

Dora and Dawn like it and it's pretty healthy - low fat and no salt.

 

 

I found these vegan sausages at Foodland - Italian and Chipotle. No meat!

 

 

Heated the sausages

 

 

After baking the veggies, add sausage and it's ready!

 

Stay at home and stay safe!

Who needs a drone? Go fly a kite!

 

Great idea Nelson! Martha likes it too!

This is the Miso Grilled Corn & Shishito Peppers!  BOMB!

 

 

Yukari Grilled Onigiri

 

 

Yuzu Kosho Chicken Takitori - Winnah!

 

Grilled Ko Ju Jong Beef Kalbi

 

 

Ume Grilled Tiger Shrimp - This was the best!

Large shrimp, tasty and plump!

 

Dora made Cinnamon Rolls was dessert - Just like Cinnabon!

 

Father's Day Lunch 06-22-2020

Yesterday, after the morning surf, I wanted to eat sushi for lunch.

We went to get take-out from Hana Sushi in Hawaii Kai.

 

Dora and I love this Spicy Ahi on Crispy rice!!!

 

 

Dora always gets the Spicy Ahi Bowl.

There's a layer of tempura flakes on top of the rice that adds a light crunch!

 

 

I was reminded of our trip to Japan while eating my Salmon and Ikura bowl!

I love Ikura!

 

Father's Day Dinner 06-20-2020

We had an early Father's Day dinner last night.

Dora and I have been checking where has the best Father's Day take-out but Dora's mother offered to make her Batayaki!

We all love her Batayaki!

 

Simple selection of tender beef and vegetables!

 

 

Prime Beef seared in butter!

 

The secret is in the home-made dipping sauce!!!!

 

I like plenty of veggies in mine!

 

We were stuffed but how can you turn down a Coco puff? No can!

Good night!

 

Roy's Take-out 06-15-2020

While Roy's has opened for dine-in, they still are offering good take-out options.

They call this the Umami Family Feast. 

 

Grilled Peach and Fennel Salad - different but good

 

Spicy Hamachi Roll

 

Hamachi Poke and Hamachi Sashimi - Very good!

 

Crispy Ume and Scallion Somen Cakes - Good!

 

Miso Glazed Choi Sum and Shitake Mushrooms - Winnah!

 

Braised Short Ribs with Charred Shishito Peppers - Super Tender as always but the portion was huge!

For $85 to feed four people, I thought was a good deal.

Everything was delicious and we still had left-overs!
