I just saw this video today and I live in Hawaii. FYI, Char Hung Sut has closed permanently if anyone was thinking of going there. Our favorite is Aiea Manapua, they have loads of meat in their manapua and have lots of different flavors and in steam or baked manapua style. They also have the largest size Pork Hash and Half Moon.

about 3 years ago, our family went on a 1 day manapua challenge...between baked and steamed manapuas... I have to tell you that we liked BOTH...one excels at *baked*char siu bao and the other excels at *steamed* char siu bao...get BOTH ! But yes, you must try Libby's that's about 1.6 miles away from Royal Kitchen... All 3 places ...oh man...makes my mouth water...

Hard to beat Char Hung Sut manapua. They've been around for a long, long time. I use to go there as a child with my family and buy a dozen to go.

Back in 1970-1971 I was a young boy of 11 we levied on Prince Edwards street a few blocks on the mouton side of Waikiki beach, every Sunday there was this older Chinese man that would walk the streets in the neighborhood in the morning, he had a shoulder stick that he would carry two big pots on, he sold Manapua and I think potstickers or Chinese dumplings the Manapua were just the best, I really miss that kind of food, I now live in Roseau MN. Dry hamburgers, dry fried chicken, dry pizza, no flavor in the food here at all, kind of the edge of the earth……

the half moon is like hagao. it is just weat starch (it only works with weat starch not with corn starch or whatever). you just mix it with boiling water, it has to have the consistency of an earlobe. then you fill and steam it. and voila. it is sooo super easy.

U-Choice manapua is for real the best. Went there a few times last summer on my trip to Oahu. But, this place (not sure of the name back then) was my favorite when I lived in Honolulu 40 years ago back when the main market was Foodland.

Have you guys ever tried the Vietnamese version? We call it bánh bao; the filling usually consist of ground pork, egg, onions and mushrooms and there's always a quarter of a boiled egg (or a whole quail egg in some case) and a piece of lạp xưởng (how we call the Chinese red pork sausage) in it.

Good to see how the chinese pork bun has so many different versions around the world, I prefer the Cambodian version it has Shiitake Mushrooms, Boiled Egg and Slice of Chinese Sausage, sometimes Chinese cabbage with savoury pork with a lot of black pepper and salt. Prefer this version to Cantonese BBQ pork bun I find this too sweet for my taste.

Aloha, Shinichi. Tell Satoshi, “Manapua” comes from a shortened version of a Hawaiian description “Mea-ono-pua’a”. (Thing-delicious-pig. OR Delicious thing with pork)! Maybe you could cook half moon! You would Chinese wheat starch powder instead of flour to make the wrapper. You had the best of the best on this show!!! Makes me hungry!
