We did nothing but feed our faces in the last one di'in't we? And nooo, it wasn't due to the "munchies" silly. It was simply because it was all *I* did during my westerly travels in Maui. But trust..., if you are patient enough, I'll make like Sean Kingston and ...

No, the "wowie" in the title is not what you think, Cheech. I'm actually referring to all of the exciting things you can do while exploring the beautiful island of Maui. And in true World Wide Ed fashion, let's take the logical approach and break this thang down by sections, ...

OK class, when we last left off, we ate up Seattle favorites like Piroshky, Piroshky, Le Panier, Beecher's Handmade Cheese Cafe, and Salumi's. This month, we'll be exploring Paseo's Caribbean Restaurant, Umi Sake House and Salty's on Alki, but before then, your homework assignment please.
Huh? You didn't do what? Don't ...

Ever notice that if you combine the words See and Eat, you (almost) get Seattle? Not quite sure what "tle" stands for just yet, but gimme some time and I'll figure it out. For now, let's just go with what nature, er, make that Doc Maynard has given us when ...

When you think "island style," you think Hawaii and our innate, laid back way of life. After two recent trips to the Big Island of Hawaii, I quickly discovered that we ain't got nuthin' on 'em. This here is true, island style living and I'm about to show how you ...

Congratulations to my former classmate and friend Tony Liu for performing well on Iron Chef America tonight (episode IA0508). A bunch of us classmates/friends (and I'm sure much of the rest of the state of Hawaii) were so excited and proud of him, even though he ultimately fell to his ...

Pops and I have this ongoing joke/battle with each other about where the best Japanese eats are around town. Hailing directly from the heart of Tokyo, he's got this unyielding, old school, traditional Japanese palate, while I have more of an open "nu skool" hunger for innovative dining experiences. Who's ...

Todd is your typical local boy. Born and raised on big plate lunches, beaches and BBQs, this pseudo-expat will get all emotional on you if he stays away from these for too long. So when he made plans to return to Oahu for a few days from his current/temporary abode ...

Finger Garlickin' Good! - Sugoi Bento & Catering
Doesn't allium sativum sound like some potent ingredient listed on the label of some dangerous cleaning ingredient? Well, it's potent alright, but believe you-me, it's far from dangerous. In fact, it's wondrously edible and delectable at that, and there are three "just gotta" ...

With the rarefied (cold) air we've been facing these last few months, I thought now was as good a time as any to feature one of my favorite local style saimin spots to help keep us warm...
All my life, I grew up a townie. Living in the Salt Lake, Pensacola, ...

OK gangy... We're back as promised. Albeit a month overdue, we're back nonetheless. Another exciting round of good eats from our friends on the Garden Isle. *ding ding*

So tonight I was named one of Hawaii's Top 50 High Tech Leaders by the Pacific Technology Foundation and Technology News Network, receiving both a Commendation from Governor Linda Lingle and James "Duke" Aiona as well as a Mayor's Award of Recognition from Mayor Mufi Hannemann.
The event was a blast ...

OK, so I lied.
We were supposed to still be in Kauai right about now, eating more of the mouth-watering treats that the Garden Isle had to offer. Instead, here we are, back on Oahu, consuming treats of a different kind: Sake and Sushi. But trust... whether you're a Japanese fusion ...
