What other unique eats should we visit? And FYI, all scenic and drone shots are taken by me. Had to say it since I get asked often. (FAA 107 Drone Pilot Ceritfied)✈️
😊!!
Just finished wow you went to so many restaurants and that’s not cheap. The bloopers were great. First time watching your videos. I found your channel as you were featured innJ cations video when he visited Hawaii Thank you for sharing. 👍🏾👍🏾👍🏾👍🏾
39:00 where are the TIM TAMS and chocolate frogs? 🇳🇿 😭
What an awesome trek through delicious eats on the island! Loving all the special guest stars including Lili! Happy New Year Ohana! ❤
Dear Mr & Mrs Kaleponi & Cutie Pie Dtr: MAHALO NUI for checking out such delicious foods on Oahu❤❤❤
Good to see Charles too; he added that authentically pronounced Chinese touch to that expensive yummy FEAST!
Sean: How do you stay so slim?
You guys all brought a lot of CHEER to our day/weekend.
Looking forward to next time, as well.
I was on the beach while Chef Chaz was cooking. It smelled so good. Got to meet Sean, too. Super nice guy.
I will always be tuned into a Sean Kaleponi video! My wife and I shared the cookie butter pancakes from My Cafe and they were super good.
I also enjoyed the Vince Carter reference.. you know ball! 🏀
Love these longer videos! Enough time for me to make my meal and eat with you guys! ❤🎉
Love this video you really appreciate you guys inviting me .i love the unique eats food tour enjoyed it I have go check out some the restaurants especially the Mexican love u guys a true friend keep make enjoying fun videos stay blessed
Awesome video! Made me so hungry! Happy to see ya all!😁
New shirt color??????? @sean
Definitely going to try Straight Outta Husk, my go to Mexican is Javis(el mariachi) on our side, but definitely looking for new things. Keep up the great vids
Hi Sean and Nhi (and baby Lili, so adorable)! Thanks for another awesome video, especially on this snowy day. All of the food looks so yummy. I'm glad you got to try some authentic Southern food. Our catfish is the kind that won't break your heart (well, not romantically anyway). I enjoyed all of your collaborations, especially Chef Chaz and that insanely delicious-looking shrimp and pineapple fried rice. Thanks again!
The Mexican restaurant owner is so beautiful. Is she married?
gotta try that Mexican restaurant. mahalos for another great video
wow, great post
Omg I’m in Australia , I so want to go to Hawaii real bad and eat all the delicious food you have here. 😫
Brah, you spend so much time editing your vids and don’t add bookmarks. 😆
Two places in the US with the most unique foods… Hawaii and New Orleans.
Many places have great ethnic foods like Italian, Chinese, etc. But not unique.
Every place looked so good. Straight Outta Husk has awesome Horchata and dessert pineapple tamales. That sweet cornbread is the best. I can't handle the traditional dry, non sweet cornbread. No wonder Southerners drink sweet iced tea – so they can swallow their cornbread. Loved seeing Authentically Charles helping you review the shrimp dishes and with Nhi to eat that Chili Crab. Jaxon was awesome to bring all those treats from New Zealand. You and Nhi need to go to New Zealand!
Ohhhh. Authentically Charles.. one of the best food channels Oahu🤙🤙🤙
Beautiful place! Beautiful food! Lili is growing up so quickly and is so beautiful. Another great video. Thank you for sharing.
Hau'oli Makahiki hou!!! 🎇🎉🎆 Honolulu Kitchen has closed and has new owners. I was disappointed with my last visit there.
🍍😎🤙🌴🥥🌸🌈
Hi Sean & Nhi! Did I see matching shirts for all three of you? How adorable that Lili has one too! The mexican food looked onolicious! I am curious about the horchata ube. That combo sounds delish! Love the collab with Charles! Recommend Mugen. I went to Mugen for afternoon tea last year & it was fantastic. In heart of Waikiki. Amazing service, food & view. Great fusion of food & not your typical afternoon tea fare. It's pricey but a fun experience. Can't wait to be in Oahu in March! Looking forward to your next video adventure! BTW, fantastic drone footage!
@SeanKaleponi braddah from a Hawaiian boy living in Texas… it’s tore-tee-ya not tort-till-lah. 😂
Love your videos brah, keep em coming!
"What's crackle lacking" video! Unique, delicious food and great guests. Lili with her hat had me rolling. She's a mini Sean. 😂🤙
Lili is so cute, the camera loves her, she a natural. Did not realize there are so many varieties of good yummy foods. Love all the cameos. Thanks Sean and Nhi for brining us along.😘😘
PS you are a champ Nhi for trying all those Manapuas for us😋
👠 visited the soul food resturant – delicious !! I'm from Virginia, and had to have a taste of home while visiting Oahu 😊 !
I like try the chorizo taco 🌮
I’d go food tasting with Nhi because I love shrimp and crab. I’m so sorry you can’t eat it. Everything looked so delicious. Thanks for taking us on this unique food tour.🤟
Your videos are getting better and better. Always creative with professional editing. Charles is always so happy when he hangs out with you guys.
love how baby lili has the same hat as daddy!! ❤
We would eat at the Thai Express down from this place and it was AMAZING!!! Thank you for taking us back there. Mahalo 🤙🏽
Awesome video!!! I’m just surprisingly shocked on how pricey those tacos are. Here in LA a good taco runs you $2.50-$4 depending on the meat you get. Same with the horchata, a large horchata here in LA will run you $5-$6. 😮
@foodfiend making a cameo appearance at 22:21😂
We tried as many places you recommended & all of them were outstanding. Ty Sean
As many as we could 😅
Awesome seeing Keith in your video. #BU 🙌
wait, you don't eat the Birria with the consume?? That's the best part for the Birria, the flavorful consume..😳
Oh my God Sean and Nhi awesome video. And baby is big already and cute. Lots of food. Thank you for always sharing. God Bless
My Cafe in Kapolei is our must stop when we are in Oahu.
Sean, my friend…it’s chile RREY AH NO…. Not what you said lol.
