Our handmade sushi soap is made by using real nigiri sushi rice molds from Japan, and the fish part is made by hand marbling white veins of soap into colored soap for a more realistic and natural look where no two pieces are alike. Like a great Japanese sushi chef, this takes a practiced eye and hand to get the sushi fish looking just right. Nigiri means "pressed in the hand." The sushi chef forms a small oval of rice and then tops it with a choice strip of fish or shellfish. Our Maguro(Tuna) nigiri sushi soap, Salmon nigiri soap, and Hirame(Halibut) nigiri sushi soap will leave you smelling clean, not fishy. It is scented with the fresh smell of peppermint. These handmade glycerin soaps are hypo-allergenic and made with the highest quality of ingredients. See our complete soap ingredient listing below.

Hawaiian Barbecue

Marga's Foodblog: Waikiki Hawaiian BBQ -- Marga's Foodblog recipes - reviews - rants « Bahian dinner | Main | Safeway online coupon » May 28, 2005 Waikiki Hawaiian BBQ Waikiki Hawaiian BBQ is located in the space that once belonged to Cafe Zula (OK but overpriced) and later to a taqueria which, at least according to my friend Boris, was pretty bad. Even though the space is close enough to city hall to ellicit a healthy lunch trade, the space seems to be doomed and I can't imagine Waikiki Hawaiian will last long, it just isn't very good. In a city that's quickly filling up with Hawaiian restaurants, Hawaiian food fans have better places where to get their fix. Waikiki Hawaiian offers a large number of Hawaiian plate lunches (starting at $4 for "mini plates" and going up to $6.75 for a combo plate) as well as sandwiches and burgers (starting at $1.65!). They have many things marinated in teriyaki sauce but also some more unusual offerings such as lemon chicken and beef curry. Mike and I decided to try a little of everything, I got the BBQ Mix Plate (teriyaki steak, short ribs & chicken) and he got the seaffod combo (mahi mahi, deep fried shrimp and choice of meat). None of the food was good. The chicken had the weird consistency of processed chicken, the ribs were mostly bone and fat and the little bit of meat was very chewy, the steak was chewy too and the sauce wasn't very yummy. In all, we were quite disapointed and see no reason to go back. Waikiki Hawaiian is part of a small chain with locations in El Cerrito and Concord. Waikiki Hawaiian B-B-Q 635 E 14th St. san Leandro, CA 510-0-882 Su-Th 10:30am - 9 pm F-Sa 10:30am - 9:30 pm Note: You can read Meathenge's take on the El Cerrito branch here . It may be that we just ordered the wrong thing. Posted by marga at May 28, 2005 09:14 PM| TrackBack Comments dude, what are you talking about. Hawaiian barbeque are high quality munchies. that shits soo good. its all aobut the cheeseburger combo that costs a whopping 4.20. Hell Yeah. The BBQ chicken plate is sooooooooo good. how could you not like it. you were obviously sober when you ate there. Posted by: ASSCACTUS at November 16, 2005 07:19 PM I agree with Marga, this place is not very good. seems like waikiki and the wikiwiki place just copied each other. the chicken does feel like processed canned meat, and very bland. if i wanted a cheeseburger, i would have went to in n out and spend less. so many of these plate lunch places sprouting up everywhere, they're all a bunch of L&L bootleggs!
