We shared the 3 meat plate and still had leftovers. It looked and smelled so good we grabbed a blanket and ate on the grassy area next to the parking lot. The chicken was super juicy, pork bbq wasn't too fatty, beef rib was huge and meaty. We loved everything dipped in the chili water sauce! Also got the pancit and a couple packs of suman (rice cakes wrapped in banana leaves) They reminded us of the suman in the Philippines - so yummy! Service was friendly and efficient. Super busy with cars coming in and out of the parking area next to the pits and ordering tent.

A friend of mine who lives on the BI strongly recommended this malasada spot as she knows and…read moreunderstands my previous disappointment with two other malasada places on the BI, as well as the standard I'm used to from a particular spot on Oʻahu. She assured me these were made to order and, most importantly, not biscuits pretending to be malasadas. So far, we are winning! The location was easy to find, and on a Wednesday morning the line was minimal -- small kine wait. I ordered a dozen to share with our friends from Kentucky who had NEVER had a malasada before, so I was excited to introduce them to this deliciousness. First impression: these malasadas are HUGE. Like baseball-sized huge. And true to what I was told, they were made to order and came out piping hot! We ordered cinnamon and powdered sugar, which was new for me since I'm used to malasadas coated in granulated sugar. They were so hot that the powdered sugar immediately started melting into them. First bite? Not bad. Definitely NOT the biscuit like texture I experienced at another BI spot, so that was already a win. But they still didn't quite have that soft, pillowy texture I was hoping for. That being said, these were easily better than the other two malasada places we tried on the BI in the past. Our Kentucky friends, however, had absolutely no complaints. I'm pretty sure there were some squeals and happy dancing happening, so their first malasada experience was clearly a success. If you've never had a malasada before, this is definitely a good place to start. They're huge, made to order, served piping hot, and most importantly, not biscuit dense. Of the malasadas I've tried on the BI, these have definitely been the best. Oʻahu still holds my malasada heart, though. IYKYK.

Before our wedding, Mark and his wife took an opportunity to make it a point to get to know us. In that meeting we learned not only about the experience and skills they possessed, but the authenticity of their hearts to truly serve us. On the day of, they were warriors championing through the Hilo rain (surprise, surprise it rained in a hilo wedding), cooking, moving things around, and presenting everything to perfection. Before we could even thank them for their service, they had already left, ensuring the attention stayed on us on our wedding day. I would recommend their catering service to anyone and just incase you were wondering, yes their food was KILLAHZ.

She got great food from Red Barn truck and I got these slow death pieces of bone, any one would cut your esophagus to the quick , you would be dead before the medics got to you. How can this be an accident? Four sharp bones in one small laulau? One piece, maybe they overlooked it. Two,pieces ? I can't see anyone being that careless. Three pieces? Sounds like malicious intent, Four pieces, including that big one with sharpened spear tips, sounds intentional and very deadly. They made it right there and served it up to us! Sounds like the Hawaii states attorney should look into their history. The health Dept? Food and beverage? Nah! The district attorney, possibly. If I feel like letting someone else deal with it. A very cleaver way of having another Haole die from an 'accidental' bone? Not these four bones, too much overkill! Take your life, and the lives of your loved ones far away from this very questionable food truck. Hopefully we don't see them on Lopaka Kapanui's scary Hawaii show.
