Thank you great find gotta try it and thanks for popping on you should do more video's!!!!!!
Enjoy your show alot.... not just once a week
Mahalo Danielle dor enjoying my channel so much that you want more videos! Unfortunately I only do it once a week for health reasons. I eat healthy most of the week and only eat out on Fridays. I might do it more if a friend invites me out. Plus editing takes time. And with a job and child that's really hard to do more than one video. I will have two for the week after next since I was invited out again. So stay tuned!
Oh wow 🥢 I think this Market City will be my new hang out in Honolulu 😋 With a great variety of restaurants there 🤙
Can’t go wrong ✅
Oh yeah! Cafe Kalia for breakfast, Foodland for poke, Fujioka's wine downstairs for liquor, Gina's for Korean, Donut King and more.
Chilling with a best buddy over good food and some drinks sounds like a great way to “Unshackle” 🍷. Totally put the camera down when hanging with your peeps....i’d do the same 😉👌. Thanks letting us know about this new spot though! Have a great weekend 😊!
Have a great weekend! Yes chilling with great company, food and drink makes the weekend more fun and relaxing.
Looks yummy! Another great find at Market City. You can just eat at a different restaurant everyday of the week and never get bored.
I was thinking the same thing 🤙
Yes it was ono. Just gotta eat fast pr turn down the stove so the liquid doesn't boil down. Service was very polite and friendly. Mahalo for your culantro. It is thriving so far in my shady spot. 🪴
@Food Fiend Happy to hear the culantro is doing well. Hope the heat in the summer months don't cause it to bolt.
Love hot pot & your channel!. 💙🌊
I imagine these types of restaurants are struggling with meat prices being so high and then have to pass higher prices on to customers.
Thanks so much Jan! Yes the cost of products are skyrocketing so I understand. But if it's yummy food I'll gladly support and pay for it. 🤙
Hi Sista, miss all of these grinds. My wife was born on Oahu, grew up in Kaneohe, lived in Kauai as well. We are in our late 60s now. Need to get back & check out the Mom & Pop restaurants you talk about. Keep up the great vids.
Mahalo Mark! I'm sure some of the places she grew up with are still in Kaneohe! You should come and have some ono food and relax! 🤙
Looks like there are quite a few new hotpot places on Oahu, and I am excited to add this one to my list! Thanks for the heads-up about needing reservations and the byob. It's always good to see your videos and get your opinions on the quality of foods offered. Thanks again, M! Cheers from Maine! 🤙
Hi Samantha! Yes lots of hot pot places here. But all different. Most are Chinese based so I thought this Japanese one was unique. Another great one in Kapolei is Auntys Hot Pot in the mall. She's the OG hot pot and it's Taiwanese.
We love hot pot! The rice porridge at the end was very cool. Glad you got full because it did seem like the portions were small. The BYOB is awesome. Going to add it to our list!
Hi Tina and Connie! Yes I think you'd enjoy it. And the BYOB is awesome for no corkage fee. Remember hot pot is only during dinner time. Lunch is only ramen. Thanks so much for watching again! Have a great rest of the week!
Kamitoku Ramen in Ward Village ROCKS! I was sad to hear that they will be gone when that shopping center is taken out. The waiters did mention that they have a Kamitoku Hot Pot; thank you for doing the review - I'll be sure to check them out.
That is just too bad they are tearing down that shopping center too! Too many good restaurants there that they are displacing. You're welcome and I hope you get your ramen fix there soon. Hot Pot is only for dinner and you can get the same ramen from Ward for lunch.
@@FoodFiend Thanks for the tips. It looks like the Kapiolani Hot Pot location only has Tsukemen, but if the quality's anything like their Ward shop, I'm sure that's good enough. Meanwhile, I'll have to visit the Ward location for their Ramen as much as possible before they close shop. Mahalo!
I bought a hotpot so I could put whatever I want in it. The only problem is that its still in the box lol May as well mention the do-it-all breadmaker that hasn't done anything yet in the box for a year. Anyways food looks good. Even with the small portions I would probably still be full af 😂 Nice to see T again. Thanks for the early video treat!
🤣 Kevin. I have many appliances I try once and then don't use. My juicer sits there with a sad face. We do use our hot pot at home though. We only use tomato broth from China but I like to taste different kinds like this one from Japan. Hope your appliances see the sunlight soon! 🌞
Thank you for another delicious video Misty! 😋😋😋
Everything looked so good; I’ve never had Hot Pot, but want to try it! ❤️
Mahalo Joette! I hope you can try to find a place near you to try it out. 😊
Awesome!!!
UNODAT!
For the porridge, you can make it thicker like a risotto if you cook it longer in the broth (on a rolling simmer) - the rice grains will plump up. Growing up we would turn off the heat and add the egg last (scrambling it in like she did). Sooo good. It's a great way to finish enjoying the broth and all of the flavors of whatever was cooked. Plus you're usually using up old rice.
Great tips. I enjoyed it very much and don't mind the little bit of liquid.
I’m into it. I’ll be back there early May. Might have to hit that up.
Awesome! And then go to Donut King and have a bacon maple donut for dessert. 🤙
Totally missed this one.
It was a surprise Wednesday one. 😸
Looks delicious- if you thought the hot broth packed a punch, it must be fire...
Yes it really burned the back of my throat. Not for me. But the beefy wild was so good!
@@FoodFiend - the portions were on the smaller side, but looks like quality was there. Love the idea of the rice porridge at the end and your adding oyster mushrooms & more beef was brilliant (I'm going to make beef broth jook & add the same).
Amazing that the meat tasted good without a dipping sauce. I was too hungry after watching your delicious hotpot & went off to eat after making the brief comment above - should've known to have food at the ready but it wasn't Friday (lol).
@@hm3954 yes interesting that the meats were so flavorful. And yes no dipping sauce. So used to that at Chinese style hot pots. I'm not really a fan of nabe. I find it bland. But this broth had a flavor punch. Hope whatever you ate was amazing! 🤙
Great find I like rice porridge.... but the hot pot is the winner. Mmmmm black pork belly. It is a bit sparse on food. Have been to McCullys I think it's still in Honolulu maybe???
Yes it appeared small but I was full. I haven't been to McCullys. It seems like a ok buffet but I don't know if I'd get my money's worth since I don't eat much. If youre a big eater you can eat your heart out!
Hey Misty! Hot pot is one of our absolute favorites and we can eat it even if it’s over 100 degrees outside. It’s hard to believe they don’t replenish the broth during your meal if you run out. We’d be nervous of running out and would probably overfill the pot trying to make sure we could cook everything!! Other than that, everything looked delicious. The rice porridge at the end looked like congee and when you said it was sweet reminded us of a couple of Filipino desserts that’s a little similar called Biko and Suman. As always another great video. Mahalo for sharing!! Happy Aloha Friday!!
Hi Michelle and Jose! Yes I think maybe the broth takes forever to make so they only have so much which is why no refills? The porridge at the end is not sweet like biko or suman. Like a Japanese food sweetness with savory. Hard to explain but if you know what I mean? BTW I loooove biko and suman. Probably because of the stickiness and Coconut milk. 🤤
@@FoodFiend yeah we can see that making the broth may take awhile so definitely understandable if they can’t provide refills. We wish we could bring you some Biko and Suman when we go there in September. My mom (Michelle’s) makes amazing Suman and Biko but not sure if it would withstand the travel there since we’re stopping in Maui for a few days before flying on to O’ahu. Have you tried the Valerio’s there in Waipahu? The ones in California sell Biko but not sure if the one there sells it too!!
@@michellejosefoodandtravel oh thank you! No need as it's stress to keep them fresh. But I bet your mom makes mean Filipino desserts. I will try Valerios in Waipahu for biko and suman!
I'm gradually beginning to really like hot pot, but I have friends who refuse to try it. They don't want to pay for food they have to cook themselves. Go figure. Thanks for sharing.
I understand about cooking, but you literally throw it in and not pay attention to it. Grilling is a different story because you might burn the meat. I love hot pot as long as the broth is yummy and there's yummy dipping sauces. :)
Aloha Misty: That was an awesome find. A different type of hot pot meal. Turning the leftover soup-base into a rice porridge was great; it must have tasted excellent with all the essence of the meats, veggies and seasoning. 😀. Great to see you collaborate with T - my 🤙- regards to him and you for this collaboration. Looking forward to the next great find of my fellow 🐯alumni! Best wishes and 🧧!
Mahalo Bill! Yes the porridge was extremely tasty and warming to the soul! I hope you have a great rest of the week! Take care fellow Tiger! 🤙
i love hotpot i used to go to prior hotpot nabeya maido but now they have a great microwave hotpot bowl thats real good i recently went to a great hotpot in kapolei at auntys hot pot house (she had the great home sweet home hotpot by the old stadium) when i eat
hotpot i feel im eating healthy also yay thats my fav wine unschackled lol
Yes Aunty is the OG. I loved Sweet Home Cafe in Moiliili and her last restaurant Aunty's Ramen. I did a video on Nabeya during covid and thought their microwave bowls were genius! Wow, that's cool that's your favorite wine. Although expensive, it was a great bottle of wine. Much cheaper at Tamura's.
I wish they gave you water to add to the soup base or more broth so it wouldn’t be so salty as it boiled down. They gave a good variety of meats and vegetables and tofu. Good food, good friends, good eats!
Yes more water would be a great option! It would totally make a nice broth since it gets so concentrated at the end.
Misty, you look exceptionally beautiful in this video.
Aw thanks.
I love their Beefy Wild ramen and fried rice combo! I've never done hot pot. Always thought it was too expensive. And I don't want to cook! haha... What happens if you drink all the broth before the porridge? Do they give you more? Love when you're with T...big spenders!
I think they bring out more broth if you order the porridge if you run out. Oh the ramen with fried rice sounds so good. The hot pot is only for dinner time. We will be spending big again next week. It's not so bad when you split the bill.
Cool; walked by a number of times; very happy to see your review
I'm glad you liked it. If you're not into hot pot, lunch is ramen with various other dishes served with the same broth. Hot pot is only for dinner time.
Thanks to you I have a few places I want to go to in Oct I'm staying for a month 183 days and Counting, and a 19 and a half hour flight😩. Don't you just love jet lag... You really do some great food videos.
Wow 19 hours? Where are you coming from? Thanks for watching and I am glad you find my videos helpful. October will come soon!
@@FoodFiend Hi coming from UK I don't mind the flight to LAX that part goes quick and it's first class. But the flight from LAX to HNL always drags. I get into Hawaii at 20:30pm normaly it has been well after 23:30pm. The first time I went to Hawaii back in 2003 I flew Economy never made that mistake again.
@@alohapoppet6107 oh wow! I'd love to visit the UK one day. Yes that is a brutal flight. I went to Portugal once in economy and it was a killer. You're lucky to have first class seats for most of it. 🤙
Hello, this soup looks very delicious. Can I add soup?
What you get in the beginning is all you get. Maybe you can add soup for a fee but I'm sure it isn't free.
