    Hi Amanda & Felix...Wow, Minasa a new hidden Gem! Those Lechon Fries were on overload. I could hear the crunch, Felix. The portions were so generous for all of the dishes there and the UBE Churros look like a Foodie Ohana must try. Amanda I could hear the crunch with the Churros too. Yummy. Aina Grill's food looked good too. I hope Da Vonn wins the jackpot on the 9th island.
    Mahalos for a great foodie episode.

    Aina Grill is awesome! Hoisin chicken is my favorite! Can't believe you didn't get the Spanish rice! Next time! I did not know about Minasa. Will have to try it soon! Next time you're in Waipahu, check out the food trucks in the same parking lot, across Minasa. Try Diamond's Kitchen for awesome hulihuli chicken and kalbi, and crab salad. Closed Sunday, Monday and Thursday.

    I wish Minasa would open a place in town. Everything you had there was different from the usual plate lunch and looked so good! And it was so nice of the chef to let you try some other delicious dishes that you probably wouldn't have ordered. Looks like you had enough food left over (a piggie bag) for several more meals!
