**COMMENTING**
Hi guys, I've have been having a big issue with spammers on this site so I have to add the static phrase element to all comments. With the commenting system on this system, you may need to click on the "Post Comment" button, rather than pressing enter on the keyboard. I hope this doesn't hinder the comments, I appreciate them all! Thank you!

I go to work everyday in Manoa and have been greatly anticipating the opening of this new Japanese market located in Puck's Alley. Finally, this past Wednesday, they opened their doors! Nijiya Market is a California based Japanese market that decided to open a location in Hawaii...and boy am I glad they did! Enjoy some pictures...
Here is my final Arizona food post! After this, we will be back to local grinds for a while. During my last full day in Arizona, we wanted to check out some different places and this was a definite find! A nice little gem tucked away in Mesa. How did the breakfast go? On with the pictures!
In the flurry of our shopping after the conference (during our own time of course), we decided to have dinner at King's Fish House. And they definitely knew what they were doing! Arizona was quite hot that day but they have these misting showers for the outdoor patrons, it's too bad I couldn't try it! Anyhow, I got a few pics of what my companions ate...and of course my dish! Here goes!
As I have mentioned before, I attended a conference in Arizona and stayed at the Fiesta Inn Resort. Here are some pictures of the foods I enjoyed during my stay at the hotel! Let the food porn begin!
YC's Mongolian Grill invites you to experience a unique and delicious dining experience. At YC's Mongolian Grill you "create your own stir-fry," selecting from the freshest and healthiest of stir-fry ingredients. During my stay in Arizona, I really wanted to try some great places to eat that we wouldn't find here in Hawaii. I came across YC's Mongolian Grill on a review site and decided to give this place a try, how did the food turn out?
A trip to the mainland is never complete without a visit to Olive Garden. I'm sure many people would say that Olive Garden serves very commercialized Italian food, but I think it's the best I've tasted! Until I visit Italy, it will have to do for now. If I were to compare it to the Italian cuisine we have in Hawaii, it can't even compare! Anyhow, here's my little ditty about our Arizona Olive Garden experience.
Been having a bit of a lull in the food blogging experience, but hopefully I am back and fully refreshed! I'll be posting some great stuff from my trip to Arizona back in April which will start today! I also hope to switch my blog over to wordpress but I'm not sure I can import greymatter easily over...so I may have to do it manually! 
Anyway, on this particular trip, I stayed at the Fiesta Inn Resort and this restaurant is located in the hotel! Check it out...
On our last day in Hilo, Two Ladies Kitchen was our very last visit. I heard nothing but great things about this little shop so I called in a day earlier to place an order for two dozen strawberry mochi. Not all for myself of course! I brought it back to share with friends, family and coworkers. Let's take a look at this little kitchen...
We planned a little road trip over to the other side of the island and decided to grab some take-out from Hilo Lunch Shop before heading out! Oh boy, I have never seen such a long line for a lunch shop...but that is always a good sign! The food was well worth it and held me over for the VERY long drive.
While I'm not a beer drinker myself, I just had to go to Mehana and bring back a beer briefcase for my father. I didn't get to ask him how he enjoyed it, but he certainly did drink it all. Here are just a few pictures to share.
I love diner digs, and this is no exception. I heard great things about this place, and it didn't disappoint! I visited twice. It's like Hilo's Anna Millers, only Ken's is much better! Let's check out what I had.
1 Plus 1 Cafe was a must visit for me because of the duck and roast pork mein soup! During our first visit, I was so disappointed to find that they ran out of roast duck! So I had to settle for another noodle dish I will talk about in a bit. But I did finally get an order of the duck and roast duck in a later visit, I did not want to leave without a taste!
Woo-hoo! Time for some great Hilo saimin. Nori's was a must visit for me, I love noodles as I have said in the past! This place is definitely the place to go for some rustic style dining.
With all the research I did for my trip to Hilo, Ocean Sushi was an impulse meal. We felt like eating some sushi and spotted this in downtown Hilo so we went for it. So how was it? And by the way, happy 100th post!
It is officially time to start my Hilo posts! It's been more than 4 months and I haven't done a post yet! I apologize because they offer some great local grinds! Here is the first meal I had when I arrived, not so much local grinds, but good nonetheless! So here goes...
