Honolulu Cafe

Honolulu Cafe Menu, Reviews, Photos, Location and Info - Zomato This restaurant has been around for a very long time and still has a decent number of customers -- which is generally a good sign that it's got something going for it.

Overall, price for portion is really good and it's not just filler. Even the smaller "Mini-Set Meal" available from 12pm-6pm and 9pm-1am are of a decent, filling portion though at a couple dollars less than the regular menu. That's what we ordered from for lunch.

Taste is around slightly better than mediocre but on the salty side.

For a Chinese restaurant where the servers weren't good at English, service was really decent. Not brusque like it can be in Chinese restaurants.

25. Curry Chicken or Beef Brisket with Rice ($10.75)
  • My friend went with the Curry Chicken. Chicken not at all overdone so I suspect it might have been freshly boiled and then added to the soup. Same with the vegetables, which were still on the crisp side instead of having sat in curry all day and softened.
  • Even without the rice the portion of curry was good and they weren't skimpy on the chicken.
  • Really salty. And not really spicy either. The saltiness really ruined it but otherwise it tasted like a passable Asian curry.
93. Fried Chicken Wings with Tan Tan Noodle in Soup ($10.95)
Something was lost in translation here but the server tried to tell me (I think) that they were out of the proper noodle. So I think I got less noodle and/or watered down soup. They did offer me instead one extra chicken wing.
  • Chicken wings were not really seasoned. But not at all oily, came hot, still quite juicy on the inside and crispy on the outside. Overall, nicely done, just not seasoned.
  • The soup tasted like instant noodle broth mixed with peanut butter. Slightly on the salty side but otherwise an interesting and tasty combo.
  • Nothing too special here but price for portion is definitely there and you'll walk out full.
  • Comes with choice of drink -- for no extra charge, it's coffee, milk tea, or lemon tea (tea with fat slices of lemon).

Trafalgar's European Explorer 2006 memoirs part 3

A picture from my 2006 trip, a Trafalgar 's bus tour, on an itinerary called the European Explorer. I can't remember why I had this couple in the picture, but I do vaguely remember this to be in London, on the first official day of the tour group getting together. Their insistence on my helping them take a picture caused the three of us to be late getting back to the bus. The local tour guide had a "rule" about lateness, that we had to buy chocolate to share with everyone. As it turned out, later in the trip, on at least two occasions, we were stuck on the highway on either a long commute or a traffic jam, and I had chocolate and chocolate-covered marzipan to share. About the chocolate-covered marzipan -- Apparently we were in Austria just as they were celebrating Mozart's birthday with special marzipans wrapped in foil with the famous composer's picture. I'm pretty sure it was Mirabell Mozartkugeln . Anyway, there were enough to go around the en

Meet Melissa Gaines and her blurry sexy pics

Oh boy! I had no sooner finished posting about the lovely Taylor Burch responding to my personals ad on Craigslist when Melissa Gaines (e-mailing from erikmcclure858@yahoo.com) mailed me a couple more pictures of her lithe body and selling her profile on the same looks-like-a-phishing-scam site (http://craigslistsafe.net/profiles/melx3/). One of them was an NSFW naked-breasts pic which I haven't posted here (sorry -- but honestly, nothing to write home about, especially with the serious bikini tan lines).

Trafalgar's European Explorer 2006 memoirs part 10

The last of my pictures (at least the ones that survived the cheesy disposable cameras) from my 2006 trip, a Trafalgar 's bus tour, on an itinerary called the European Explorer. Below is the obligatory group photo. Not sure everyone's in it, actually. I'm pretty sure this one was taken by the tour director, Mike Scrimshire as I'm in the back row, on the right side.
