I've tried practically EVERY known saimin place in Hawaii, all the big guns - Hamura, 49ers, Palace, Jane's Fountain, Old Saimin House, etc. They're all good in their own special way. BUT, when it comes to local style saimin, if I could eat at only ONE saimin place for the remainder of my life, it would be SHIGE'S hands down! Any Italian will tell you that it's ALL ABOUT THE NOODLES. That a pasta sauce should only enhance the noodles, not over-power it. Well, it's the same for saimin. And Shige's got the best noodles. They make their own. They no buy from Sun Noodle like most places. They make their own fresh noodles. And their broth is perfect. It enhances their beautiful and delicious noodles. ON TOP OF THAT, the Shige's staff is da best! They give great service and they're always friendly. They treat you like family. Real old school Hawaii restaurant feeling at Shige's. I only go there maybe four times per year, but they still remember us. Best saimin, best staff!!
Hi. Thanks for coming by my parents saimin stand. The broth is our own. My parents created their own broth that’s why it may taste different. Nakai saimin was my dads grandparents place. My dad always had a dream of opening his own saimin stand. My parents still go every morning to make the saimin. The hamburger is homemade also, it’s made every morning also. No, we don’t use oyster sauce on the fried saimin.
Mahalo Kris for the clarification and information! We truly enjoyed our meal at Shige’s and were always happy to support hard working local businesses🤙🏻 much aloha!
I remember when they opened up in the mid-70's. It was my favorite place to pick up good grindz :) I loved the cold kook-su. Their kim-chee sides were awesome too. Nice to know they are stil thriving 50-years plus ❤
Amanda’s description of the “shockingly good” fried saimin is enough to entice me to try it! Going to have to add Shigei’s on our food list for June! Mahalo for the foodie tips. ♥️
Thank you for taking us along on your Wahiawa foodie adventure. All of the food from Dong Yang's looked so amazing as well as the dessert drinks and waffle cone treats. Love it when Davon joins in and gives her detailed descriptions. Mahalo for sharing the food culture of Wahiawa!!
Originally starting in Haleiwa as Nakai's, occupying the space that Cafe Haleiwa now occupies, Shige's Saimin has been part of Wahiawa business community since the mid-1980s. Dong Yang Inn has been Wahiawa landmark since 1970s & was/is known for their Large, Healthy portions. Can't really comment on Beyond Boba coz have never been!-lol... Keep Dem Videos Coming!
@@AmandaFelixEats...Next time, gotta check out 3 Mexican, 2 chicken places, Tanya's Pies & Sunnyside. Gimme a buzz next time & let's plan it out! (Aye only live close to Tanya's!)-lol
Love y’all’s content. I feel like I’m right there with y’all back in Hawaii exploring and trying all the delicious foods. Keep it up 👍🏼, this is how I’ll survive this nasty Oregon winter.
What a busy week!! Finally got to watch this weeks video. Beyond Boba!!! Let them know we will be there in May! Always good to see the The Von. How’s Lucy? Keep it up Amanda and Felix! Where’s hungry! Mike and Marnie
Shige's is awesome! Glad you guys ate in the restaurant....so much better than take out. I personally like the fried saimin over the regular soup saimin. I know your theme was ICONIC restaurants in Wahiawa, but next time, you have to try the Vietnamese Restaurant in the same shopping center as Foodland. It's named....PHO KING. I kid you not. (Be sure to pronounce "pho" correctly.) Kind of surprised you didn't go to Kilani Bakery for dessert, considering your theme.
Love Shiges, so old school! We did Kilani in our other wahiawa food tour video (check the link in the description!😋) is it better than homemade pho by Felix’s mom?😋
@@AmandaFelixEats Oh, I actually missed that one. I thought I've watched everything you posted! Anyway, the pho is really good, but you need to get the souvenir t-shirt. "It's PHO KING GOOD!"
Back in the 50s and early 60s I used to go to a restaurant called Dot’s in wahiawa. They had good food and on a street by the bus station there was a drive in restaraunt I think it was called toppers. After every leilehua home football game a bunch of people would go there in their cars and hang out. They served saimin at that restaurant among other food like hamburgers. Man I miss my hometown.
🥰Really love going along with you on your food tours all over Hawaii. I have only tried Saimin from Kings here on the island of Guam. Would like to try those house made, hand cut noodles in that Saimin one day.❤️ The drinks at Beyond Boba look delicious. The ultraviolet drink looks like they colored it with the butterfly pea flower, it’s so beautiful and vibrant. Thanks for sharing!😘
Hmmmm. I think I might need to take a drive out to Wahiawa for some fried saimin and dbl teri cheeseburger. Shiges is the best! Looked so good! Been to Dong Yangs when I worked at Schofield many moons ago. Will stick with the meat jun... looked pretty meaty. Soooo close to 20K! Can't wait!
Aloha Amanda, Felix and Yvonne. I was finally able to watch this video this morning (my Mom was in the ER yesterday) and all of the food looked so yummy (it actually made me want to eat beef again). I really enjoy you showing places in specific areas of Oahu to try out. As always mahalo for your great videos!
So sorry to hear that about your mom! Hope she’s recovering well🙏🏼 sending healing and positive energy💫💞 mahalo for watching and supporting us! We hope you can try it out when you come down🤤
I've been wanting to try authentic meat jeon since watching Korean cooking mukbangs; even tried making it myself but it was too bland. Looking forward to trying Dong Yang's on our next trip. Maybe pick some up from Dong Yang on the way to have the Saimin. Thank you for another entry on our 'must-try' Oahu food list.
Hell yeah! Gimme that burger and tery beef stick pronto! And gimme the kalbi ribs and mac salad too! That kine local Hawaiian food I can grind all day long.Y'all da bestest. Mahalo!
Love me a a bowl of Saimin right now. Same here, love the extra cost for sauce. That plate lunch could last me 2 days. Oh yes, boba and yummy dessert in one place. Thanks Amanda&Felix😘😘
NICE!!! Ross and JoAnn of Shige's are classmates of mines. Been going here for YEARS!!! They are hands down the BEST!!! Saimin, Cheeseburger, BBQ Stick DA LOCAL Boy Special. DONG Yang, even though diff. owners, where my dad took us for our 1st ever taste of Korean Food. Use to get either the Meat Jhun or Bi Bim Bap!!! So HONE!!! Keep up the GREAT work Amanda and Felix!!!
Looks like you've given me another saimin place to try next time I'm on Oahu. We did Shiroi Saimin last August when we were there after we saw your video (we went to the one near Ewa Beach). This looks like another good one to try. Love the video as always. -- Zeke.
Thanks for tryIng Shige’s. I requested You guys to review Shige’s after we last visited Oahu with my family and my nephew raved about Shige’s. I love Shiro’s but never made it to Shige’s. My nephew said that Shige’s is better! Your review confirms that Shige’s is good. Definitely on the list for our next visit!👍. Happy New Year!
Don’t worry Felix, I dip my burgers in the saimin too. I also tried doing it with a grilled cheese sandwich at home. Can’t go wrong there either. That burger did look good.
Yummmmmm!! I must say, I’ve never had a wonton mein & a burger. But I would probably dip it if I did. I def have to try the boba dessert. Luv the Von’s hair color and her pretty dress!! Thanks for the great video!!!!!!! 💕💕💕🤙🏼🤙🏼🤙🏼💕💕💕
That's exactly my lineup from Shige's since the mid 80's! Occasionally I would order the Loco Moco and mac salad. Dong Yang from the early 80 when everything was under $10 for meals. Back then Korean stores was scarce in that area, so I would by my kimchi and banchan's from there and still do. It used to be service, I guess since COVID it stopped. #17 combo and Bibimbop, Korean Style! Keep your awesome food adventures coming!
I love this new format you guys are doing with the interviews 👍🏼I was just thinking how good you guys are getting at UA-cam! Keep up the great work guys! You guys are my fave food vloggers and looks like you guys are getting really popular..so happy for you guys 🙏💗🤙🏽
We have been coming to shiges for years… before my daughter was born and she’s 23! Lol! You guys ordered the best on the menu. I’m drooling right now. Dong Yang’s meat Jun is pretty good… though I still think Young’s is the best 😋. Love your videos and Yvonne!!!!
great job you two! i am nick from vancouver. lucky me, i am coming to ewa beach for the month of february staying at my buddy’s house 3 blocks from shiros. i have never had saimein! what floor should i get! i love food! lol!
Classic spot! Nothing beats Saimin! Non locals don’t get it. It’s comfort food fo sho! And it’s Shige! Mahalo for reminding me to head back there when I heading up to the Northshore. You guys should check out the Korean BBQ in Mililani Towne center. All you can eat sides plus the thick kalbi!
Shige’s is a family staple! We ALWAYS dip the burger in the saimin broth! ;) On those cold rainy days, it hits so right!! Hahaha now it’s gonna be more crowded Amanda and Felix! 😅😂🤣
I live on the other side of the island so if you say this place will give palace Saimin some rubs then I’ll make the circle island trip to try it out. On a side note I still make the drive for the meat jun that’s automatic.
Went to Shige's today for the first time, everything was just like you described, so ono, but I'm kicking myself for only getting a single burger Patty, next time double for sure
Grew up right up the street from DongYangs. They are the epitome of “OLD SCHOOL”! I can verify they have not changed at all since the 1970’s. Even the pictures on the walls are the same. Da meat jun EEZ DA BOMB‼️😋
This is Old Schoolfood. Saimin, Cheeseburger, Fried Saimin and Teriyaki Sticks. Looks really Ono and nostalgic. But why only two Teriyaki Sticks? Mahalo and Aloha.
i love shiges bbq cheeseburger with a sm saimin hits the spot. n dong yang best meatjun n i like their kim chee not real spicy great video making me hungry gotta go this week one day shige n another day dong yang
Shiges!! You guys finally made it there! One of the best saimin and burger places on the island. And you definitely gotta dip that burger no matter how nasty Amanda thinks it is 🤣🙊
How does the Meat Jun at Dong Yang to the Meat Jun at Young's Kalbee in Aiea? Young's is my go to spot for Meat Jun for years. I moved to the mainland, but every time I visit home I eat at Young's at least 2-3 in a week.
My husband is a Wahiawa boy. Grew up around the corner from there. We always stop at Dong Yang if we’re on that side….and have even driven there a few times exclusively to get their meat jun. We don’t get anything other than the meat jun. I couldn’t tell you what anything else there tastes like. I don’t even wanna know 😜
Felix, I know you said that it's a must to order a burger with the saimin. But when did this trend start? I know I'm old, but I never heard of it before. For me and my family it was always a teri stick with the saimin. But damn dat burgah looks really ono!
I miss Saimin from home. When we first moved here and was asking for Saimin they were looking at us like huh?😳 when you raised in Hawaii that's all we knew was Saimin. Never heard anyone say Ramen.🤦🏽♀️ Found out quick that the mainland don't know Saimin, everything is "Ramen" 🤷🏽♀️🤦🏽♀️ Of course only the local restaurants here know Saimin but can't go into an Asian restaurant here and ask for Saimin 😂 Lol..

Don’t worry Felix, I dip my burgers in the saimin too. I also tried doing it with a grilled cheese sandwich at home. Can’t go wrong there either. That burger did look good.
Can’t go wrong with a ono burger dipped in saimin🤙🏻
Yummmmmm!! I must say, I’ve never had a wonton mein & a burger. But I would probably dip it if I did.
I def have to try the boba dessert. Luv the Von’s hair color and her pretty dress!!

Hi, new(er) subscriber, being from Kauai, its awesome to get all your recommendations. Do you have a list of Italian places? Pastrami?
Everything looks so good! To bad the Boba Shop is not in town, they would make out, stay safe…🤙🏼
I know right!! Hope they can expand soon and open up one closer to us townies🤙🏻 mahalo Calvin
Classic spot! Nothing beats Saimin! Non locals don’t get it. It’s comfort food fo sho! And it’s Shige! Mahalo for reminding me to head back there when I heading up to the Northshore.
You guys should check out the Korean BBQ in Mililani Towne center. All you can eat sides plus the thick kalbi!
We have Mililani bbq on our list!! We hear it’s the best🤤 and yes, non locals really don’t know the nostalgia and comfort saimin has❤️🤙🏻
Haha 😂 Vietnam stomach GETDAT FELIX. Beast mode👍👍👍
💪😂
Young’s kalbee meat Jun > everything
Check out our review on Youngs!
ua-cam.com/video/yC3b364B7kY/v-deo.html
See da sauce from da bbq stix? Pour little bit on each bite of saimin. My grandma use to do dat fo me wen I was a kid.👍
Shige’s is a family staple! We ALWAYS dip the burger in the saimin broth! ;) On those cold rainy days, it hits so right!! Hahaha now it’s gonna be more crowded Amanda and Felix! 😅😂🤣
Burger saimin! 🙌😅
I’m with Sharon A , but will get those puffy pillows also lol ,I hope we make it there ….
You guys NEED to checkout Hamura’s Saimin when your on Kauai! They’re know for their Saimin 😋 This all looked so good!!!
I would always get saimin and cheese burger at Like Like drive inn!!! And yes dunk it.
👌😅
Which do you prefer for saimin? Palace Saimin or Shiro’s? Thanks!
I live on the other side of the island so if you say this place will give palace Saimin some rubs then I’ll make the circle island trip to try it out. On a side note I still make the drive for the meat jun that’s automatic.
Not sure how it compares to palace (haven’t been there in a while) but if you down that side definitely try it!!🤤🤤🤤🤙🏻🤙🏻🤙🏻
Definitely do da dip!
I gotta say that sauce is the best🤗
Went to Shige's today for the first time, everything was just like you described, so ono, but I'm kicking myself for only getting a single burger Patty, next time double for sure
Double for sure!
Grew up right up the street from DongYangs. They are the epitome of “OLD SCHOOL”! I can verify they have not changed at all since the 1970’s. Even the pictures on the walls are the same.
Da meat jun EEZ DA BOMB‼️😋
Supah thick! 😅🤙
Shige’s definitely! Our go-to place here in Wahiawa! Won ton min Yes! Cheeseburger Yes! Instead of Fried Saimin, I get Fried Udon Yes!
We gotta try the udon next time!
This is Old Schoolfood. Saimin, Cheeseburger, Fried Saimin and Teriyaki Sticks. Looks really Ono and nostalgic. But why only two Teriyaki Sticks? Mahalo and Aloha.
We should’ve got more Teri sticks and another burger🤤, but had to film more places! Lol mahalo Glenn🤙🏻
Burga got to be drippin!!!
2 of the best spots in my home town :)
Man those looks like some dynamite eats! I don't think we'll be making it to Hawaii anytime soon, but that food does look so good!

🙌😂
#1 Aloha Monday!!
🎉🎉🎉 mahalo Walter🤙🏻🤙🏻🤙🏻
I was at wahiawa yesterday and said id be back to eat!
How does the Meat Jun at Dong Yang to the Meat Jun at Young's Kalbee in Aiea? Young's is my go to spot for Meat Jun for years. I moved to the mainland, but every time I visit home I eat at Young's at least 2-3 in a week.
The meat jun is ono at dong yangs but cannot beat young’s kalbee! Everything there is ono 🤤🤤🤤
Just moved from South Carolina to Oahu! Thanks for all the food recommendations. Let me know if you’re trying to take out some fans for food!!!!!
My husband is a Wahiawa boy. Grew up around the corner from there. We always stop at Dong Yang if we’re on that side….and have even driven there a few times exclusively to get their meat jun. We don’t get anything other than the meat jun. I couldn’t tell you what anything else there tastes like. I don’t even wanna know 😜
Meat jun all the way!
Dong Yang been there fo ewa! Meat jun is da bomb 💣
She was thick!
Felix, I know you said that it's a must to order a burger with the saimin. But when did this trend start? I know I'm old, but I never heard of it before. For me and my family it was always a teri stick with the saimin. But damn dat burgah looks really ono!
It might just be a Felix thing 😂 but yes, we always gotta have Teri sticks with our saimin🤙🏻😋
i tried eating my burger with store bought spicy ramen for $2. Game changer.....
I miss Saimin from home. When we first moved here and was asking for Saimin they were looking at us like huh?😳 when you raised in Hawaii that's all we knew was Saimin. Never heard anyone say Ramen.🤦🏽♀️ Found out quick that the mainland don't know Saimin, everything is "Ramen" 🤷🏽♀️🤦🏽♀️ Of course only the local restaurants here know Saimin but can't go into an Asian restaurant here and ask for Saimin 😂 Lol..
Should try their loco moco.
