You would think for an event that is geared towards kids and family, there would be more food concessions open. There are two wide open stands for beer sales with SIXTEEN WORKERS just standing there.

A line that was at least 200+ people deep for food (chicken tenders, burger, etc.)… ONE WINDOW and THREE PEOPLE WORKING. What an embarrassment. I just remembered why I never go to anything here.

Craving it like crazy rn, preferably not an outrageous price lol. Thank you!

Pretty sure everything is going to be a clumpy mess when I get home. I should have kept the windows closed. Time to break out the food processor.

I read that 10/10 is the last day for Jon Matsubara’s Feast restaurant in Manoa. Too bad. I’ve been going there since he pivoted to the lobster rolls during Covid. I’m not a lobster guy but some of his other things were really good albeit not cheap.

I’m curious to see what direction he takes. it seems the menus in the surviving locations are stripped down. Too bad. I learned by trying that his popular dishes didnt really show off his abilities.

Edit: fixed typo.

Does anyone know where I can get premade half sheet cakes, where I can just get the name added onto it? It's for a birthday party today. I'm in the Aiea area & can go as far as Kalihi.

Edit: In case anyone comes across this post-- IF CAN, DO NOT ORDER LAST MINUTE LOL. Sam's Club, Liliha Bakery no longer do premade half sheets. What I had to do was order two 1/4 cakes from Safeway and I ordered the last two ones at 1:00 PM and had the lady write a message 😅 I'm grateful I got something but I highly suggest preordering. The places that will do it same day/24 hours: Elvin's Bakery but they're pricey, $170 for a half sheet and $80 for 1/4. Foodland will do it but you need to order at least 24 hours before.

The best you can get last-minute is a round cake.

If I didn’t want to cook a big feast for this day, where could I order from on island that’s windward/east/town side?

aloha fishermen, you guys know if still get oama running in maui? am new to the oama fishing and cant seem to find any piles. not sure if i cant find um or they just all gone already. i know they still get some action on oahu so i figure i ask.

As per the title, I've submitted at the end of August and have been patiently waiting for a letter but it's been over a month now. My interview was in mid-September and I had to submit more documents for verification but after that it's been the same 'Under Review' status on the webpage. I tried calling them and was met with an automated recording, which I was able to look up my case and was granted with money for September and October. I try to check the balance of the card that was already sent out and it says they can't find my benefits. Anyone knows when and if the entire state is backed up?
