I have never once had a bad experience eating Curry Guru's food…read more The herbs and spices always help the food to be tasty and healthful. The ingredients and flavors are well balanced and textured. Shan, the owner, makes a personalized order of Fried Rice with whatever curry you'd like at whatever spice level you'd like!! The Naanwich... I can't say enough good things. Garlicky, warm, savory goodness! If you get to the stand early enough you can even get a breakfast style one with fresh eggs! Moderate prices. ($20ish) GREAT portions. (Shareable even) Fresh food. (Made every morning) Balanced seasonings. (Custom spice blends for each curry) Tasty flavors. (Craveable even) Great service with a smile. (Always a smile!) Wonderfully friendly people!!! (Everyone does their very best to give each customer personalized attention.) My family and I eat here 3 or 4 times a month! Good, Hearty, Savory food.

FINALLY got to try their pork hash at the monthly "What the Truck?" Event in Waikele (parking lot…read morewith the old K Mart closer to the freeway). They sold these bad boys in a pack of 12 (no other option - not sure if it's just for the event) and it comes with dipping sauce. Not sure what's in the sauce, pretty sure it's shoyu and possibly sriracha or gochujang (chili paste) it's got a nice little kick. I don't always get to travel to the speciality places for pork hash but these are worth the price. They're meatball sized and super flavorful and delicious. I highly recommend checking them out!

They make only one thing, really great local style porkhash…read more Golf ball sized, a mix of coarse and finely ground pork simply seasoned with salt, white pepper and a touch of sugar. This is neither the consistency of flavor of what you'd find in Chinatown. Juicy with a springy texture wrapped in a thicker, chewy, skin. A local style sauce (soy, vinegar, chili pepper water) accompanies the tasty, porky balls of goodness that brings out even more porky sweetness. Sold by the dozen at What the Truck 2 (third Friday of each month in Waikele). As part of the "manapua man special" from Str'Eats of Aloha (Sand Island Access Road) or fresh, frozen or in party platters direct at a lower price (follow on IG and DM for orders). Extremely friendly service at What the Truck 2. Worth seeking out if you miss the old school, local style porkhash.

You can literally see it on either side of the H-1 freeway going West Or East. These freshly made, warm, fluffy & crisp delicious Malasadas are perfect for any time of the day. Recommended to be eaten right away for best tasting deliciousness of these Malasadas. Service: Stopped by on a Saturday morning, there was no line, just one other customer ahead of me. The ladies working were pleasant, quick and efficient with my order. I ordered 2 with sugar and 2 without sugar. Tips; - Cashless so be sure to have a debit card or credit card on hand. -When visiting Oahu definitely a must stop. Ambience: - No outdoor seating area, order & go. - Outdoor & ample parking. - Enjoy your Malasadas at your car.

It was a Thursday afternoon, and we mingled with the intrepid tourists who drove to Central O'ahu. This malasadamobile is permanently parked in food truck row. You can see it from the freeway. You can see Laverne's, the malasasamobile, Mountain Shave Ice, Thong's Thai, Taste Tea, Dick's Lechon, and ... the blood bank mobile. The truck ladies had to be sweltering but they were still nice. And it's always a happy atmosphere when you're about to get a box full of deep-fried, sugar rolled doughnuts. I stuck with the classic sugar but we also got some cinnamon sugar and stuffed (dobash and haupia) to share.

I messaged him instead with Yelp but you also text the number in this listing. He was very fast to respond and I simply told him what I wanted and met up with him to pick up. $10 for 1 pound or $25 for 3 pounds of either regular or spicy. While I picked up both I've only tried the spicy so far. The smoked meat comes in a vacuum sealed bag so I just put the regular one in the freezer. This smoked meat is fairly lean which concerned me at first but my concerns were not warranted. The meat has a strong great flavor but the spice level is pretty low. In a way I was happy with that because I didn't want to be have the spice overpower the flavor of good smoked meat. As long as you aren't looking for burn your mouth spicy this is excellent smoked meat at a reasonable price.

SERVICE: fully staffed INTERIOR: n/a EXTERIOR: pop-up tent @ Waikīkī SPAM JAM 2026 WAIT TIME: 25 mins prior to placing order, 15 mins to receive food PARKING: street, nearby lots n' garages OVERALL COMMENTS: arrived at the line, which was long but surprisingly moved faster than expected. Everyone was working hard to get the food out fast. Lechon had the perfect crispy skin while the meat was tender. A good amount was given n' was nicely prepared. Ate it with the mang tomas sauce that was provided. The addition of spam pieces was to incorporate the main attraction. The fried rice unfortunately didn't have much flavor. I ended up eating it with vinegar to jazz it up. Bbq pork stick was really good on its own. The vinegar that was provided added even more flavor. It was actually my favorite out of everything; had a good char. Pork lumpia was two long pieces that was equivalent to like 6 regular size pieces. My kids enjoyed it. The turon had a good crunchy exterior, the banana seemed a bit on the dry side. Glad to see many people trying Dick's Lechon n' supporting local!

We ordered the adobo omelette -n- the lechon plate, which came with rice -n- pancit. Actually, I got the lechon kawali but when we went back to the car to eat, there were no tomatoes or onions . Also, there's a sign that says "don't forget to ask for sauces" but because it started pouring rain, I forgot -n- assumed they would just add it. The lechon was super good -n- crunchy but I'm a sauce person so it definitely would've been better with some vinegar sauce, onions -n- tomatoes. The pancit kinda tasted off, I can't describe it. The adobo omelette was ok, but salty; I was tripping out that the rice was so dark colored. I think I would go here again just for the lechon -n- I won't forget to ask for sauce haha.

They have a tent at the Waikele Premium Outlet Farmer's Market from 11a to 4p. My husband always…read morebuy from here since last year, so they always greet us with a smile thanking us for buying their pastas. With inflation, their prices have only risen a dollar more since last year as well. Smoked Salmon pasta - 5 stars - for $16 very flavorful and creamy. It's a little salty because of the smoked salmon even when we ask to lighten the salt, but it is stil one of our favorite plates. Shrimp Pesto - 5 stars - for $16 this is another of my pasta favorite choice. The pesto is tasty with large shrimp and dried tomatoes. Always will buy this plate again and again. Service - 5 stars - very friendly and nice, but since it's made to order, it takes about 10 minutes to be ready, so we shop at other vendors and return to pick it up. Lots of Parking, but sometimes it takes awhile to find one since it gets really busy, and the stalls in the upper waikele SC are very narrow.

They have quite a variety of Menu items to choose from and I got the Two Choice Plate which comes with All Rice or All Pancit or you can get Half Rice and Half Pancit. I got the Lechon Kawali with Tomatoes and Onions and the Beef Shortrib Nilaga. The Lechon Kawali was delicious with big chunks of Lechon and there is no dipping sauce needed because they toss it and season it just right. And the Beef Nilaga is the perfect contrast to the Lechon with Big Chunks of Beef and loaded with Cabbage and other Veggies. The Broth from the Beef Nilaga is so Light and Refreshing it goes perfect on White Rice. For the $18 price tag it may sound steep but i have to say they are very generous with the portions here. It like having a bartender that pours you a drink without a snifter. The Sweet Aunty in the front loads up the plate right in front of you and that takes the sting out of the $18 price tag. I also got another scoop of White Rice on the Side for $1.25 more because I needed that Extra Rice because you can never have enough rice when eating Filipino Food...LOL So happy they have a Brick and Mortar once again. Their Menu Selection changes daily here at Bebot's so you might want to follow them on Instagram to see what they have for the day. This is my new go to spot for Filipino Food and they don't disappoint. I've been here twice in a week already.

Finding them at Kalaeloa Night Market was refreshing though as the night cools it was still quite humid and apparently many thought so too as I browsed around and decided to wait that was the wrong decision as they were out of some items unfortunately. What's fun is that you're able to create your lemonade to start with your "ade" which was lemonade for me the to add your base of (water, coconut or sparkling +$1) but unfortunately they were out of coconut and sparkling which she never mentioned so I guess it was water then my flavor was one of their limited item of "Yuzu Pineapple" and it was $10 for a giant bucket which is a great deal though difficult to hold which is why I waited but was very refreshing and hit the spot as the vibe of this market was so nice with lots of seating options love this treat that literally kept me cool. Thank you!

I honestly think it should come with more rice because I barely even ate the pinapaitan before I finished the rice. The service there... did not seem to much customer service oriented, it's pretty much you ordering take out with chairs on the side. Workers were quick to bring out our food. It's strange there... it's located inside of festival marketplace. If you've never been to festival market... it's a market with different stands selling fish, meats, produce and other things meanwhile the restaurant has a spot in the middle of it all. I've been to festival market many times but haven't really had a restaurant before pampanga went in. Strange location is all I could say but it works. Lots of parking there, I always get parking right away. Overall I would come back. I usually go to festival for produce and sometimes meat or fish so it's nice to be able to stop and eat before I head back home.
