Left J's IS my go-to spot near Fremont St Experience downtown Vegas. Best Hawaiian home food and ridiculously LOW prices. Meats are flavorful with charred skin. MMMMmmmmmm!!!!

This is the first time I’ve watched a food review without fast forwarding! I’ve lived here for almost five years and I love and appreciate these tips. I’ll be visiting Lefty J’s this week. Thanks for this!

I find it funny people would think of Zippy's as trendy. Really it's a local diner chain in Hawaii 😋 I love Zippy's! No hype thrre... just nostalgic & delicious 😋

@kakelinga 2 жыл бұрын

Hey Rockstar, what you are eating is "Local" food from Hawaii but it's not Hawaiian food. Those are local foods that you would find all around Hawaii at Zippy's or local restaurants. Hawaiian food consists of things like laulau, kalua pig, squid luau, haupia, kulolo, poi, lomi lomi salmon, etc. There is a big difference. Nevertheless, it was a great review and if I want some local style food when I am in Vegas, I'll be sure to stop by and check it out. I wish they did a mac salad because almost all of those plate would come with mac salad here in Hawaii.

Went to both Baekjoeng and Ahgassi Gopchang based on your recommendation, loved both. As a thai your recommendations is also on point, I also suggest Yai Restaurant for very authentic thai food. But the last time I went to San Pedro Fish Market I wasn't very impressed. Keep up the good work for us locals. Also you really need to head to San Jose when you have the time, the Vietnamese food there is pretty amazing. If you're ever in town try Bo Ne Phu Yen, and their Bo Ne which is basically their variation of steak & eggs on a hotplate.

Meat Jun was introduced in Hawaii from a local Korean business owner of Kim chee #1. It originated in Korea as a fritter style and Hawaii introduced meat jun in Hawaii as sliced meat.
