tommy kicks off his trip to oahu at ono hawaiian foods...
 |
| lomi lomi salmon, chicken long rice soup, boiled butterfish, haupia, pipikaula, kalua pig |
tommy says: the kalua pork and haupia make this place worth a visit. the pork was tender and was very flavorful (unlike many other versions of this dish which seem to be on the bland side), and oh-so-good with the raw onions! the haupia had a nice slightly soft texture, not too firm, and the coconut flavor was not overpowering. lomi lomi salmon is ok, just don't think it is my thing - like a very mild salsa with salmon. the chicken long rice soup has a mild flavor; it is basically just a chicken noodle soup with glass noodles. the boiled butterfish was also ok. pipikaula was a bit too dry and sweet, reminiscent of a teriyaki jerky.
