Leonard’s has been serving malasadas since 1953. A malasada is a Portugese doughnut without a hole. The dough had the right amount of chewiness. The custard filling was generous and not too sweet. I will miss this light, warm and sugary perfection.

Helena’s Hawaiian Food
Please don't wake me up; I am still dreaming about these short ribs. I saw rows and rows of beef short ribs hanging above the stove tops in the kitchen. These ribs were marinated and then hung to dry. They were then grilled to order. Short Ribs, Pipikaula Style, was the bomb. I loved everything about it. The outside was crispy but the meat was not dried out. It was delicious!
Kalua pig (cooked in an underground oven, called an imu) and Laulau (pork wrapped in banana leaf) were also tender and juicy.

Marukame Udon
Fresh noodle, you say? How could I turn away but wait in that ridiculously long line. It was almost like an assembly line—get on line, order and get what you want by following the stations, pay, sit and eat, and clean up. I got to assemble the perfect meal for me. Udon (thick wheat flour noodle) was done well. Broth was rich but not oily. It was big bowl of happiness. Their tempura selection was awesome. They even had fried chicken and a few sushi/musubi options.
