Not being from O'ahu... What the deal on Zippy's Chili? I mean everyone seems to rave about it. I tasted it and didn't care for it.
I guess it's an Oahu thing, sort of like Loco Moco to Hilo (or the Big Island) or saimin to Kauai.
Or Komoda cream puffs or Tasaka guri guri on Maui!

Yes, must be an Oahu thing. What I have noticed, though, is that I like some Zippy's chili better than others. I once bought zipmeal chili (buy in a bigger container to take home) from Kailua and found it to be more spicy than others. I don't know what the deal was with that.
Saimin with a raw egg mixed in and Spam.
Baked mac 'n' cheese with crumbled saltines on top, like my mom makes.
Baked cheese enchiladas.
Samosa chaat.
M&M McFlurrys.
The local style means it's baked with cheese on top. Everything is mixed, the noodles,sauce, ground beef, put it in a pan and bake da buggah...like how they used to serve at school. I think that's what she talking about.
mmmmmmmmmmmmmmmm............
My Kane`ohe sweetie makes the stove-top variation (just without the baking step) with elbow macaroni, sauce, ground beef, shredded cheddar --- and she calls it her "Mom's mac & cheese," so I won't confuse it with the yellow stuff. Funny, but I grew up calling that "goulash" (which I know is something different altogether.)
My kumu hula has recently gotten into making her own kim chee - extra-extra spicy! It's fantastic.
I was in that Korean market in the Kapālama Shopping Center on Dillingham, and they were selling 5-pound plastic bags full of red chili powder, the kind that goes into kim chee. Wow! I'd never seen bags like that before.
