Coworkers introduced me to Spicy Ahi & BBQ in Pearl City. Tucked in back of a cramped strip mall next door to a pet grooming salon and Blockbuster and offering an unimpressive view of the parking lot, this place turned out to be quite a gem for bright, fresh, well prepared and great tasting food. I had the chirashi, pictured above, which was basically a beautiful bowl of deliciousness. I was in heaven!

[MixedPlateBroker]

Wa-wa-woo! Looks so oishii.
How are the prices there? I'll have to put that one under my "Must Try" list.

[lavagal]

That was beautiful, PZ.

Greek gyros plate to go. Hot tea with lemon (my office could double as a morgue), giant leaves of lettuce from Costco to up my greens quotient. It was good. Sometimes I just need lotsa protein!!!!

[helen]

Cheeseburger and a bottle of water. Then later on (and maybe still going) leftover fun sized Halloween candy and a bottle of Diet Pepsi.

Coworkers took me to lunch at Ideta Restaurant in Kalihi (620 Kohou St.). Considering my fondness for cozy, old-school, slightly musty Japanese eateries (I miss Wisteria!), I can't believe I've never been to this place. The sushi looked bright and fantastic, and the meal portions pretty generous for lunch. I went with the "Ideta Teishoku," with saba, chicken teriyaki, tempura, sashimi, shredded cabbage salad, Japanese-style potato salad (almost mashed), atsuyaki tamago (sweet egg omelet), and a round breaded something-or-other I didn't even have room to try. Delicious. Next time, I'm getting the tempura and sashimi combo.

[scrivener]

Ideta has been a favorite of my family's and of mine for more than twenty years...I'm glad you liked it! Next time, give me a call...that's right in my hood. Uh, not during the workday, though, I guess.

[MixedPlateBroker]

Mini katsu curry w/brown rice & mac salad fr Sugoi. Officemade iced coffee.

Chicken salad sandwiches, some 100 calorie treats and a bottle of Diet Coke.

Haven't had it yet, but I'm calling Okata Bento for a Chicken Katsu Donburi in about 5 minutes.

Making a very large pot of Na'au Pua in my kitchen.

Goes well with wet pipikaula and tripe stew.
