ACEVEDO'S HAWAICANO CAFE

ACEVEDO'S HAWAICANO CAFE
190 ALAMAHA ST
KAHULUI, HI 96732

On Maui to visit our branch in Kahului.  The crew suggested Mexican and of course I was all in.
They all went for Burritos and I went with a Carne Asada Plate with Guacamole to stay low carb.
This was delicious and very filling.  Will definitely go back here again.

My office was going to Alejandro's for lunch so I ordered the Carne Asada Burrito in a bowl with no rice or beans.  Added Avocado and requested Pico de Gallo which they forgot.  All the flavors of the Burrito without the carbs.  Loved it.

CARNE ASADA AND AVOCADO SALAD

LUNCH AT THE OFFICE

After our Carne Asada Taco Night I got to enjoy a Carne Asada and Avocado Salad at the office.  This was so good and very satisfying.  Loved it!

CALLE SABOR CARNE ASADA TACOS

CALLE SABOR CARNE ASADA TACOS
DINNER AT HOME

Picked up the Calle Sabor Carne Asada at Sam's Club for around $14.  Nice cuts of beef and pretty good marinade but we think the Baily's Carne Asada has a bit better flavor.  This was good though and I would not hesitate to buy it again.  The key to a great Carne Asada Taco (and ours are just as good as any restaurant in Honolulu) is fresh Guacamole and Pico de Gallo.  Plus a really good Salsa or Hot Sauce and fresh Cilantro and Chopped White Onion.  The Tortillas are also important.  We use White Corn Tortillas and cook them on a flattop so they crisp up just a bit.  These tacos were delicious.  Entire family loves them!

BBQ ISLAND STYLE - SOMEWHERE ON GUAM

BBQ ISLAND STYLE
SOMEWHERE ON GUAM


While on Guam, we needed to provide training to a group of contractors that I work with.  The owner of the company decided to combine an employee BBQ with the training.  Wow...what a treat for us.  They cooked up a Guam style BBQ that I will never forget.  Enjoyed some absolutely delicious food, a few cold beverages and time with some really great people.  Shawn Ogo and Dave Laughlin were the ring masters here with Shawn acting as Chef while Dave kept the training and cold beverages flowing.  Shawn knocked the bottom out of his personal recipes serving up some of the best beef, potato salad and seared ahi.  Shawn's Potato Salad was the bomb and I usually don't eat much Potato Salad.  He combined potatoes, egg, bacon, pimentos and a few other ingredients with just enough mayo to not soak the dish.  I went back for thirds and so did my friend.  Would have eaten more if I was not watching my figure.  Shawn's Deviled Eggs were just as good.  Loved the bit of horseradish that he put in this dish.  Enjoyed some really fresh Ahi Poke and Seared Ahi that was caught fresh in Guam.  I could have finished the entire plate of Seared Ahi if I was not full on everything else.  Shawn ended his culinary feast with some of the best Carne Asada I have ever tasted.  Marinade was perfect and better than most Mexican Restaurants I have dined at.  What an incredible meal with some really special people who really know how to enjoy life and take care of each other.  Whether you are in Guam, Hawaii or any other place in the world.  Good people and good food make life happy.  We really appreciated the warm hospitality and cooking of our new Guam friends.
