TuNnL Veteran Author Honolulu Posts:414 Points:28,635 Joined:Apr 2005 Message Posted:1/14/2006 2:40:02 AM Ignore TuNnL Report Abuse The Pearlridge L&L is really wanting for service. I walked in the other night and there wasn’t a single customer inside. Then after I told the cashier I was dining in, she gave me two takeout boxes. When I asked for a tray, she looked at me like I was speaking a foreign language! She kept repeating the word “tray,” trying to make some sense of it. The cook/owner finally gave her a styrofoam plate which I accepted in defeat. What Eddie Flores needs to do is visit some of his restaurants unannounced. I’m sure he has enough pride to put some effort into training his employees.

In the Vancouver, Washington and Portland, Oregon area Aloha, Several years ago, I moved from Honolulu to Vancouver, WA (near Portland OR). I found myself craving for the "local Hawaiian food" I left behind. Every chance I have, I return home and the first thing I do is eat at my favorite local Hawaiian restaurants. The cultural mix in Hawaii is amazing. The Hawaiians, Chinese, Japanese, Portuguese, Filipinos, Thai and the Koreans all have made valuable contributions to Hawaii's multicultural society. And because we have this Asian and Polynesian blend, Hawaii has become a "gathering place" for chefs to practice their craft. The festive culinary possibilities are endless. But, nobody can argue, home-cooked meals are the best. Most people would have to agree that their favorite foods are the ones that mom and dad would make for them at home. They bring happy memories back to us when we eat them. We would like to share not only our "home-cooked" meals, but more important, the "Spirit of Aloha" with you, your friends, your family and the world. Mahalo, Patrick Need to email me?
