    I'm with you dude - that little steak and chicken joint on the beach was phenomenal! Ate there last week - could have devoured 2 boxes it was so good. Super long line-ups at dinner time but when we ordered mid-afternoon only 20mins. Combined with the view of Diamond Head what more could a guy ask for!

Putting myself on display is taking some getting used to, especially in a place that's new to me and that has its own vibe...but since I'm here...I'm going just be myself. Yoooo!! You caught it!!! When I made this video, I was making up the song (as we do lol!) and I thought of you and was like if Ra ever sees this...he knows this is going to be a nod to him. I had you in my mind when I sang it and layered the harmonies. WELL.DONE! Ahhhhh...I see what you did!!! 😂Thank you for watching, bro! 🙏🏾❤

    The original Mai Tai was created at Trader Vics in California by Victor Jules Bergeron. He later went to Hawaii in the 50's and created the Royal Hawaiian Mai Tai that incorporated pineapple juice.

    So I did grab a pastry from the bakery place, but next time I will grab some food there. I never knew there were more locations in Honolulu. Also, next to the Steak Shack is a pineapple ice desert place that is really good. I thought the Mai Tai at The Mai Tai was overrated (because Vic's was like $22??), but ill take your advice and get the drink you ordered.

    • @dwaynearoundtown
      @dwaynearoundtown  Před 9 měsíci

      Oh nice! I'm glad you were able to get something from Liliha Bakery. It's one of my favorite places to eat for sure and they have like 5 locations on O'ahu. Oooooo, I didn't know about the pineapple ice dessert place, I'll have to try that! There is a Banana "ice cream" place near Steak Shack that I've been to. I think I prefer dairy to banana ice cream. lol I'm not a big mai tai fan, but I hear you. I can believe it's a bit overrated. Next time, you should try the mai tai at Moana Surfrider Beach Bar or Kahala Hotel has a beach bar, they both have really good mai tais.

    I don't think those are "best restaurants in Honolulu". Liliha Bakery been around for long time but so has been Zippy's . Best Sushi would be Ginza sushi at Ward Center. Best fusion -Roy's in Waikiki, Best nice expensive place with amazing scenery and food is Orchids at Halekulani. I am not saying anything is wrong with places you listed, but as a local, let me assure you its not the "best"

    • @dwaynearoundtown
      @dwaynearoundtown  Před 8 měsíci

      Oooh!! I LOVE Roy’s! (Was just there for my birthday last week in Hawaii Kai), Orchids at Halekulani?! Chef’s kiss! 🤌🏾✨ (that brunch buffet is sublime) I’m learning a lot about the food scene here and let me tell you, it does not disappoint. As a new local, all these places are new and fun to me tho! But lowkey… I still think these 3 places are some of the best. Those Liliha pancakes??? Come on!! 10/10. Steak Shack..so juicy and flavorful. Mai Tai Bar? One of the best Lava flows in town. It’s a lot of great food here and I can’t wait to try more! Have you been to Southern Love? Good food and good vibes over there. Ima have to try Ginza…see what you talking about. 😎🤙🏾
