    Buk buk kitchen
    Earl G.

    Buk Buk kitchen is a food stand run by two friendly sisters that specializes in Filipino BBQ. We saw them at the International Marketplace on a Thursday night where the smell of freshly grilled meats brought us over. They handed out samples of their bbq pork and chicken. I also learned that they have mochiko chicken which I didn't see that day. BBQ CHICKEN MINI plate - $8 - Tender and juicy, this tasted authentic! A typical FIlipino bbq marinade is based on 7up, brown sugar, garlic, etc. The soda and brown sugar create a sweet sticky almost teriyaki like glaze which these had. (http://www.yelp.com/biz_photos/4wXpVs1sp_biLifEEhxb1g?select=537SmHHgVgcwx_iEv9DB1g) Suggestions for improvement. - Portion size/Value - Kinda skimpy. I know were in Hawaii but at Fil-Am BBQ in Daly City, I can get these skewers for $2 a pc. - The side - I didn't like the scooped corn out of the Costco sized can. At least prep it to put your own twist. Or even hide the can? - The rice! - Undercooked and mushy? First knuckle on your finger girl! You can find where they'll be next - http://www.facebook.com/pages/Buk-Buk-Kitchen/182203191802437

    You want some simple, Teriyaki-glazed pork and chicken that's moist as can be, along with major "papa'a" (tasty burnt edges) action? Then look no further than Buk Buk Kitchen! MASARAP-SARAP!!!!!!

    They served awesome pork, unfortunately my mother ate the whole dish!

    Late post- i got their chicken back in Feb, then another time April I think. Only tried for their…read morefood at their Ali'i Place location on Fridays. I recommend getting their gravy on the side. You can then dunk your chicken in it- while still keeping your chicken crispy! I didn't care so much for the Mac salad imo- I'd ask for all rice, but definitely give it a try if you can't have a plate lunch w/o mac salad. It was a long wait. I think I waited more than an hour my first time. When I arrived my second time around, I got in line before they even arrived! I was still #10 I think. Took maybe 30mins but definitely worth the wait if you love your fried chicken crispy! I have yet to try their poke and beef stew (and other items they feature. Cash only!!!

    You can find So FAT in front of Alii Place on most Fridays. Their menu is pretty consistent and…read moresimple, consisting mainly of their "Frickn chicken" which is a fried chicken and often a special that rotates out. Apparently they're known for their chicken- of which you can choose between original, garlic, ranch, spicy, furikake, or gravy. They get really busy so be sure to go early. People often order bulk orders too... and unfortunately they seem to take orders in rounds... So I stood 3rd in line waiting to order for nearly 40 min before they even took the first guy's order. Of course they must have taken a first round earlier as I arrived 30 min after they opened... My work day is quite busy and I'm impatient by nature so I did not appreciate standing around for 40 minutes just to wait to order. Then I hear her telling someone it's another 40 minutes for their food. I don't expect it to be quick to be honest, but would have wanted the opportunity to place an order. I was getting angrier and angrier by the second. They need to be more upfront and post on their truck that they take orders in phases so expect to wait 30min + to place your order. ESPECIALLY when you come downtown ... because majority of us are in the middle of our workdays and not able to spend our entire hour just waiting to order. It's inconsiderate and downright rude. I ended up walking away just as they were starting to take orders again because I don't want to support them and I don't have time to wait another 40 minutes when I've already spent over 45 minutes out of the office just waiting to order (plus my walk time). No food (especially heart attack inducing food) is worth that. Arghhh I can't recall the last time I've been so angry and irritated. I always say expectations are everything. Never be surprised by the price... I'm also not surprised when my food takes a long time to be ready... but first time I was surprised to wait 40 minutes to place an order when im only 3rd in line...because they're just not taking orders. PUT A SIGN UP! So those of us who don't have 2 hour lunch breaks can plan accordingly!

Ono Eats by Kace was located near the front of Bellows entrance, under a purple pop-up tent with her business logo. She does all of her cooking in her cute purple trailer located behind the tent. Everyone working looked like family, perhaps her husband and children? I'm a sucker for small, family-owned businesses So this was another thing that had me sold. The line was also fairly long and the guy at the front moved it along pretty quick. He also has great customer service and engaged well with customers. Conveniently, she has a menu with her typical plates and daily specials. I assume she switches up her specials on different weekends as I was told that they're usually there on most Sundays. Now for the good part, the shrimp plates! She offers regular and spicy and I tried both. They're packed with garlic flavor and come with a dozen shrimp. She also scoops the garlic sauce on the rice. The spicy shrimp has the perfect amount of heat and doesn't take away from the flavor that was what's important for me! I also had a bite of my boyfriend's Shrimp Sub (another item on the menu) and it was so good! I will definitely make the drive into Waimanalo, every Sunday to get my shrimp fix.

Just enough blood...I don't know what that means since I don't eat it. He said pretty meaty and not just junk pieces of meat. Baby liked it too. I had lechon and guisantes. Lechon pretty good. Baby liked the tomato/onion more than the lechon. Not super fatty but enough I had to pick it apart. Guisantes was good. Little more tart than I've ever had it. Pork lumpia was nice and crunchy. The flavor was good...didn't need sauce. Super tasty by itself. I think it may have been why I burped garlic all day. Baby and hubs liked banana lumpia. He said crispy and not too sweet. Baby loved the calamari honey juice...it wasn't too sour or sweet. Was good. Everyone was nice. I think we will be back...
