Seemed like medically Dr. Pillai-Allen knew what she was doing; no unusual pain or discomfort experienced.

However, I wasn't put at ease when she was giving the examination.  In fact I was slightly annoyed because she was asking me…

Olivia D. writes: I'm always on the lookout for Taiwanese-style shaved ice, so I gave it a try at Yummy Ice Garden. They have a good selection of toppings and syrups, and I thought the shaved ice I had tasted good for what you can get in Hawaii, but still, it was no…

Sidewalk Deli

Honolulu, HI 96813

Anita L. writes: I'm not sure that this place can be called a deli. A Korean deli maybe, but definitely NOT your regular type of deli. It's a small little place with a few booths. They serve breakfast for $2.50 with 2 eggs, 2 slices of spam and rice (boy, now THAT'S…

Ninja Sushi

Nordstrom Shoes-Ward Centre

Ward Center
Honolulu, HI 96813

Anita L. writes: I really didn't like this store because the selection was just pathetic. There was a whole bunch of slippers and more men's shoes than ladies' shoes. I couldn't believe the lack of selection available. I mean first of all, would you buy slippers at…

Los Tres Compadres Mexican Restaurant

823 California Ave Unit
Honolulu, HI 96813

Honey Lee B. writes: Fairly good happy hour -- Sit outside or not. When they first opened, years ago, it was exciting to have a fresh Mexican atmosphere in Hawaii.  Most likely NOT what you'd  choose as a tourist.  Sometimes locals have a craving for OTHER than ASIAN…

Honolulu, HI 96814

Olivia D. writes: Chodang's lunch specials are a great deal--I only paid $4.99 for kimchee and pork soondobu, and it came with lots of side dishes with real Korean kimchee, not the mac salad crap they give to non-Koreans. I really hate it when you walk into a Korean…

Mama's Spaghetti House

1450 Ala Moana Blvd

Brian H. writes: This is sad.  

I am actually the first person to admit to eating here...and I was here twice in one day.
