Local Favorite Cheap Eats + Announcement! || [Oahu, Hawaii] Korean BBQ & Crispy Chicken Plate!
• Local Favorite Cheap E... - Розваги
Ooh I needed this! I want to try out some Korean spots when I am there in a few weeks.
You’ll be back again so soon!! Hope you can eat lots of ono grindz on your upcoming stay! 😋 dm me if there’s anything you wanna know!
I will be donating. I know what it’s like to be poor and have no food. I grew up in kalihi. Kalhi Valley Homes but me and my family got evicted and ended up homeless and living at Sand island beach park. I was driven to never be in that predicament ever again. I moved to the mainland in 94 and never looked back. Today I own my own house, two vehicles and owner of Josiah home improvement. The American dream is possible but always pay it forward. I haven’t been home in almost 30 years. Your videos is very comforting and brings back a lot of good childhood memories from a lot of the places that you feature. Before you there was nobody else I knew doing what you do. You’re videos mean a lot to me. Mahalo Nui A&F!
OMG!!! YESSSS PLEASE DO VLOGMASSS!!! I LOVE SHARING THE HOLIDAYS WITH YOU GUYS! YOU MAKE IT REALLY FEEL LIKE FAMILY!!! ALOHA!
Yes, love vlogmas!
Stay tuned! 🤙
Howzit Amanda and Felix! Oahu born and raised here, but currently working in Maryland. Came across your channel recently and just have to say you truly do our food culture back home justice and showcase it so well to the rest of the world! Blessings to you both and continue the grindz! 🤙🏼
All the food looks delicious! I really enjoyed your Vlogmas series. Actually, I didn't know about your channel until July, but I did go back and watched all your previous videos. I hope you have another Vlogmas series this years. Also looking forward to your traveling videos next year. Love your contents and down-to-earth personalities...continued success to the both of you!!
We love that place.the mandoo combo was awesome. Definitely would go again.
Yessssss Vlogmas plz! Enjoyed watching last year’s videos and would love to see what you guys do this year for the holidays🤙🏼. I lived there all my life and moved to California years ago and for some reason watching your videos makes me feel like I’m back home if that makes sense 😊
For sure!💯 we’re so glad that our videos can take you back home🤙🏻
Aloha guys 🌺 even tho I can’t be there for your food drive , that’s fantastic that you will have a virtual drive , when we stay in Maui at the time share , we have so much can and dry goods left over and Sharon always drops it off at the food bank .
Oh yes Kal-bi yummy , vlogmas yes 👍👍👍
Thanks for another great vlog. Will be back at the Aulani in December for a week and will be visiting some of your recommendations while we’re there. My list is soooo long! We visited some of your recommendations in May when we were there too! Please do vlogmas again. I so enjoyed your vlogmas last year and this time I can follow along when we’re there at the Aulani! Mahalo! 🥰🥰🥰
Loved vlogmas!!!!! Please do it again this year!!!!
Mahalo Elle🤙🏻
The food plate from Soon’s looked yummy, but that honey garlic chicken had me drooling!! You must do the Vlogmas!!👍👍
Mahalo Soonae🤙🏻🤙🏻🤙🏻
Thank you. Just l love watching your vlogs.
Absolutely! Please do your vlogmas posting for this upcoming December 2022.
I used to go to Soon's when I lived in Salt Lake.....decades ago! But that honey garlic chicken really looked amazing. And YES, do vlogmass if it's not going to stress you out too much! I was one of those who watched after the fact, but I loved it. Just that intro with everyone (especially Lucy) in their Santa hats made me smile. 😃
We'll definitely be doing vlogmas!
The good looks fab as always guys and so did the drinks at the end 😍 best wishes for the meet and greet 😊
Mahalo Angie! We're hoping for a great turn out! 🙏
Yes for vlogmas!
❤Aloha and Mahalo for this vlog. I’m so hungry. You both take care.
Mahalo Lawrence 🤙🏻🤙🏻🤙🏻
Yes to Vlogmas! Would love to also see how your appartment is going compared last year when you guys just moved in.
I loved Vlogmas!
Don't even know how I found you guys but hurray! 👏👏 My daughter and her family are moving to the leeward side in Jan. I turned her on to you guys so they're ready to roll! Mahalo!
My family enjoyed last year's Xmas vlogs. So of course we would love another Xmas vlogs.
For sure! 👍
That looks amazing... and the second place you guys went to i like how they have those booths. Oh and the food looks amazing
Mahalo!! It was ono and the vibe outside was chill too😋
Yes Vlogmas!
Great feed..must try when in Oahu next....and yes my vote for blogmas 🎄🎄❤❤
Mahalo Colleen! 🙌🏼
Yes, please do vlogmas!!!
For sure! 👍
Aloha Amanda and Felix 🤙 definitely interested in vlogmas 2022!! Can’t believe that it’s almost a year since vlogmas 2021. I’m looking forward to your future travel videos in 2023 🌴😎
Awww mahalo Paula! This year is going by way too fast 😅
Going to Honolulu next week. Thanks for all the great videos. You guys are awesome!!
Mahalo for watching and supporting 🤙🏻
Again you guys show great videos driving directions. I eat at harbor village dim sum in Hawaii Kai. I show people one time and that is their favorite place now, the Korean church from downtown and people from Japan.
SOONS!! That's my mine and my wife's favorite Korean take out spot. Their sauce and crispy mandoo are some of the best I've ever had and although the meat jun is debatable depending on how you like it, it is our favorite on the island. If you get just the meat jun plate they give ALOT. Love Soons!!❤
Amanda, you're so pretty and Felix has such a beautiful voice. You're both doing such great productions. Thank you for your hard work!
So happy to see you doing a food drive, giving back to the community! Would love to see your Vlogmas adventures also, but no pressure. (Although I'll admit, most of my favorite UA-camrs don't upload EVERY day for Vlogmas haha)
That honey garlic chicken looks bomb!
And, you should absolutely vlogmas!
The eats look so good! Like how Soon’s was so quick. Y’all are brave, I travel to Seattle to see family in spring or summer 😂 But y’all will love the food regardless, its great all year.
Aww mahalo Yvonne! We’re missing the cold weather 😅
Regal Diner honey garlic chicken. Used to work a few blocks from there. Never forget that. When Regal closed started going to One-plus-One. Another winner!
Regal diner had both ono local and Chinese plates! Miss their food 😢
Great video! Kalbi looks good! Should come over to New England during the spring or summer on your travel series!
We would love to!
Wow that looks amazing. You should do a Mukbang of Hawaii holiday foods for your next Live Stream
OMG and Soons Kalbi is the BOMB as well🤙🏽🤙🏽🤙🏽
OMG please I loved your Vlogmas series! I know it’s a lot of work For you but I selfishly would really be happy for Vlogmas 2022!🥰🥳
Awww you’re the cutest🥰🤙🏻 mahalo for watching our last vlogmas🙌🏼
I used to live right by Soon's! Ahhh I miss living in Salt Lake!
yes!! Vlogmas!!! 😆😆😆
I so forgot about this place.....Yep very onolicious!....Mahalo's you guyz!
Definitely craving some Korean BBQ after watching this vid now! I always look for the best Kalbi here on the east side of the Big Island. I always eat off the bone for Kalbi. That’s the only way to eat it 😋 Yes, do Vlogmas please 🙏
Vlogmas is coming soonnnn!!!
Yes vlog mas. Yea never get to watch it while it was happening but this year I’m down and ready for it.
Stay tuned! 🙌🤙
#3! Always love trying to guess where you guys are going to go based on the thumbnail! Soon's is GREAT!
Did you guess it?! Lol so many people suggested soons!
@@AmandaFelixEats I didn't guess it, but that Honey Garlic Chicken looked ono! That Chinese seafood restaurant in that shopping center is supposed to be really good, too!
yes to Vlogmas it was fun last year!
Aww mahalo!🤙🏻🤙🏻🤙🏻
My go to for Korean are Choi’s Family Restaurant located on McCully Street in Hana Market (they share the same parking lot as Chiko’s Tavern. Strictly take out. Choi’s food is AWESOME and she gives a lot. My other is Sorobal!
Mahalo for the rec Will🤙🏻🤤
Aww.. man.. I'll be arriving Nov 16th.. gonna miss the meet up. Good stuff!
Aw shucks!
Vlogmas is a yes from me!
🥰🥰🥰 mahalo Sam!
Howzit y'all! Rock me Amadeaus with that kalbi rib hand to mouth no fork or knife long time. And gimme that chicken too! And then on to the second stop. I'd be stoked to grind that honey garlic chicken! Y'all always bring the local ohana joints and this episode did not disappoint. Mahalo nui loa for a y'all do!
Mahalo Robert Leslie! We’re happy to support the small local shops with ono grindz🤙🏻😋 feels like home in a plate🥰
Hi Amanda and Felix! I really love your videos! I'm actually going to Oahu this Sunday and I hope to run into you guys! I was wondering if you have heard of Manny's Maladadas, who had a store in Pearl City, but had a food stall at The Kalakaua Farmer's Market? I think their malasadas are one of the best!
There’s an islander drive in at Wahiawa too. Love that honey garlic chicken
Oh wow didn't know!
My family came to Oahu in 1983 and my mom's been at Soons since then. I'm biased but the meat jun is my favorite because I grew up with it. But I understand the people that don't like it. I live in Sesttle now and watch you guys when I get homesick. By the way when I visit I ask my mom for the Han special lol. My name is Han. It had kalbi BBQ chicken meat jun and Mando 🥰
The Han special sounds like a combo I'd order! 👍
I love that honey chicken garlic thing!
Soooo ono💣💯🤤
Grew up with Soons. I've noticed the Meat jun camps are either the soons or the dong yangs lol. The mandoos changed. It used to be way bigger and better.
We’ve heard their mandoo was better before! We wish we could’ve tried the old one🤤
Yes to Vlogmas, although I know it is a lot of work for you guys. This was another great episode.
For sure! 🤙
Thanks u two for goingto my old childhood stomping grounds... I love the BBQ chicken there to me they have the best on island. U guys should try Kim Chee 2 on Waialae ave ..people frm all over the island go there just to eat. Keep being Hawaiis Best Foodie Couple
We heard good things about them! Will try! Mahalo for the support! 🤙
I totally enjoyed Vlogmas 2021. Do it again!
Mahalo Laura🤙🏻
Go to Soon's all the time since my Mom (96) lives just below Tripler. She loves korean food. Her picture is on the wall of Staduim Camellia Restaurant.
Wow she’s a legend 🤙🏻
Been eating at Soon's since the 80's. I think it has burned down twice that I know of. The meat Jun is super thin but like you mentioned, that sauce is like crack! The joke in high school was that you could put it on cardboard, pretty similar to their meat jun, and it'll taste good!
Lol! That’s hilarious!😂 definitely crack sauce!
I would definitely recommend Portland over Seattle for the food scene! The asian food is poppin!
Mahalo for the rec! We hope to try Portland sometime in the future!
Yes! Vlogmas please with lots of Lucy.
🎉vlogmas 2022!!!
Amanda & Felix love your vdos! Try Kim Chee7 in Westridge. They make the Best chicken katsu! Bring your appetite as they give a lot of food!🤙
Mahalo for the rec🙏🏼 we’ve heard of their amazing chicken Katsu!
That looks so delicious. I can't get food like that at all here in South Dakota. I like when explain what these dishes are because they aren't familiar to me.
Mahalo Rebecca 🤙🏻
Love islander Drive-Inn at Salt Lake. And yes you can order the sauce on the side for the Honey, Garlic Fried Chicken.
I always order a regular and a mini no sauce as that CHICKEN is the bomb and I have them place the mac salad from both plates in a side container as i HATE my mac salad HOT🎯🎯🎯
Mahalo for the tip! Will definitely do that for next time🤤🤙🏻
Yes please do Vlogmas 🎄🎅
Mahalo Luanne! 🥰🎄
You guys HAVE TO DO Vlogmas!!! Great video!!
You gotta try kim chee in enchanted lakes in kailua! Best chicken katsu on the island! And really good meat jun aswell! Get that combo its WINNAZ!
Sounds good! 🤙
Great video guys!
On the subject of vlogmas. Acouple I follow do Vegas vlogs did "scotchmas" last year. They drank a shot of different scotch from Ireland.
They said it took a toll on them having to upload and edit every single day so they decided to consolidate it for one week's worth in one video. Just a suggestion.
Mahalo Jeremy! Lots of people do weekly vlogmas so we are considering that as well😅
Guy's, just do it, you know we all love it! It just fulfills our addiction!😃😃😃😁😁😁
🙌 stay tuned!
I used to live by Soons and Meat Jun was my favorite. If you are nearby and you see the smoke, you know you are at Soons
Even the smoke smelt ono🤤🤙🏻🤙🏻
Top 3 meat un for me is Youngs, Dong yang, and kimchee enchanted lake. Aloha 🤙🏽
We gotta try that Kim Chee that everyone’s talking about!🤤
You guys should review Sekyas Japanese and delicatessen!! It’s wonderful and budget friendly.. been in business 50 years!
Hi Amanda & Filex, Thank You good video. Filex Your very funny hahaha🤗 I LOVE You two & DaVon. I can't wait to try the honey chicken Bar BQ Short Ribs, all of the Ono grinds You tried. LOVE and GOD Bless You all Aloha Always Sister Chrissy Honolulu Hi 💙💜💙💜💙💜💙💜💙💜💙💜
Mahalo Christina 🤙🏻🤙🏻🤙🏻
Please do Vlogmas again! I looked forward to it every night in December!
Awww you’re the sweetest! Mahalo Jennifer 🙌🏼🥰
The LA Kalbi looked amazing; I'm with you guys - must have meat char and yes, must gnaw around the bones . When I think about Kalbi, it's the burnt edges and cleaning the bones that make you crave it. I wish I could be there for your meet-up at the Food Drive. Have been supporting the Maui Food Bank for years; these organizations are so needed and now more so than ever. Keep up the community support-good job you guys.
Mahalo Sharon! We appreciate all the encouragement you’ve given us and we’re happy to show and support our community! Also, I’m totally craving Kalbi now 😋😋
Young’s all the way! Soons kimchee is really good tho 😅
🤙🏻🤙🏻🤙🏻 love their Kalbi here at Soons too!
I was really curious to hear your opinion on Soon’s meat jun. I don’t eat red meat anymore but I was never a fan of soon’s growing up and people would always rave about it. I grew up on Dong Yang meat jun and I just couldn’t get on the soon’s train.
With so many meat juns out there it’s so hard to choose which is the best!😅🤙🏻
ALOHA FELIX AND AMANDA I LOVE your vlogmas , they are fun . The food you guy's had look amazing Mahalo 🍍🍍🌴🌴🌺🌺
A vote for vlogmas 2022🥰🤙🏻
Aloha Foodies from Ho Chi Minh City!! 🤙🏽🤙🏽
Hope your having fun walt🤙🏻🤙🏻🤙🏻 jealous of all the food you’re eating😜
@@AmandaFelixEats I'm definitely enjoying the experience and food. I'm about to go to breakfast now. Still haven't had any Pho yet. 🤔
Thanks!
Mahalo Kathleen🙌🏼🙌🏼🙌🏼
Amanda and Felix…Foodie Ohana!!! Those short ribs!!!🤤Kal-Bi heaven. All the flavor is in and around the bone. That sauce - CRACK SAUCE. You are so blessed to be able to find out which place has the better kal-bi. That honey garlic chicken from Islander Drive-In looked so ONO! I need some in my life. I love your “job”; I need to apply. 😂 Mahalo for sacrificing yourselves to try those foods for us. 🤙🏽🍗🍚🐮🧋🌴
The sauce was crack for sure💯😜 hope you can try out that honey garlic chicken too🤙🏻
@@AmandaFelixEats Do you think they will have it on the Big Island?
Can’t believe you guys never ate here before!
Ikr!! 🤤
You guys always make me hungry with all the yummy food you guys eat . Yes yes yes definitely do vlogmas 2022. Take a poll and I'm sure everyone will agree😁 I enjoyed watching it last hear. I waited everyday for your post.. when I was having a bad day I looked forward to watching the daily vlogmas because it always makes my day better.. after all isn't it all about content?🤣
We're glad to hear our content can help you through your day! Stay tuned for vlogmas this year, it's going to be a good one! 🙏🤙
@@AmandaFelixEats you know what's funny about watching all your videos, you may not know any of us except for some that you have met face to face but watching your videos and how real genuine and authentic you guys are, it's almost as if we knew you guys from way back when as if we all grew up together. It's like if I saw you guys it would be like eh wassup, howzit, how you been kinda thing.🤣 you guys share so much of your lives that it feels like we know you guys on a personal Level except you know nothing about us...😏🤷🏽♀️
Come to Ewa Beach and eat at Ono Thai it's the best...!
Woo! Soon’s Kalbi!!
What not subway?😂
🙌🏼🙌🏼🙌🏼
🤣🤣🤣
I was literally at that Subway today for a quick lunch I’m sad I didn’t get that honey chicken or kalbi. ☹️
Awww next time!!🤤🤙🏻
Everythime I'm in the area, its either Soons or the Chinese restaurant right around the corner!😋
Everytime🤭
Everytime🤭Oh yeah, could you two please do Kapolei BBQ in the near future!?!?🤞🏽🙏🏽🤙🏽
We gotta try the Chinese place!
My husband and I just returned from Oahu. We were looking forward to running into you guys but unfortunately, we didn't 😔
Maybe next time we might have better luck 🙂
So sorry Elaine! Hope your enjoyed your time and ate lots of ono grindz 😋🤙🏻
Soon's! Just down the street from my work place. Their Meat Jun is not my fav,, but the Kalbi and the Crack sauce can't be beat. Want to try Islanders' Honey Garlic Chix. Will let you know if they will put the sauce on the side. Vlogmas 2! Lots of work for you so thanks in advance for doing this if you can....I looked forward to it everyday. BTW, encourage all Foodie Ohana to contribute to the Food Drive if you can. If not Hawaii, then in the area you live. The virtual link that A&F provided is so easy to use and so many people could use a helping hand. MAHALO!
We agree the sauce is so good! Mahalo for mentioning the virtual link! We're trying to make it as simple as possible for everyone! 🙏🤙
Vlogmas 2022!!!!!!!
🙌
Vlogmas! Yes, yes, yes do it. Watched every one of it last December and couldn't wait till the next day. Sometimes the mundane and ordinary is the most interesting. Kind of like letting down your hair and being human too. You guys are rock stars, legends and give out great vibes. Food drive on November 13th, eh? Let me see what time my Bills stay playing that day.
Mahalo for such kind and encouraging words Roger!🤙🏻 hope to see you there!
Whats your favourite seafood platter/deep fried scallop spot
watching this on an empty stomach is not a good idea :D
Grab a snack and eat with us🤤🤙🏻
I used to like Diners spec. Diners Kalihi
If you go Kauai go to bull sheds the ribeye was bomb. If they still there.
We'll look into it! Mahalo for the tip! 🤙
Well, I'm glad to know that SOMEONE ELSE besides me is not really a fan of Soon's meat jun. I think it is much too thin, and the egg batter is overcooked so it's kind of chewy. Everyone else I know who goes there says I'm crazy but, well TEHO. Also, the "kim chee" was a bit disappointing in that it was regular cabbage, not won bok. Not sure about now though. But having said that, everything else is great! When I go to Soon's, I'll get everything but the meat jun.
I miss meat Jun so much, hard to find here in Utah. Yummi’s sells it but they run out quick.
Loved their Kalbi and Soons, but totally get why people love Soons meat jun but just not our style🤙🏻😋
🥺🥺🥺🥺🥺so hungry now 🤤🤤🤤🤤🤤
🤤🤤🤤
@@AmandaFelixEats ❤️❤️❤️
Tip. We always have a real knives with us when we travel. Folding, razor sharp. Keep in car. We also take to steak houses because of their silly saws they call steak knives.
Good tip! 👍
I had kalbi in Korea
