THE BBQ STICK MAN

THE BBQ STICK MAN
HONOLULU, HI

We literally stumbled across this little place located on Campbell Street in Honolulu. While parking my car to go to Ricos Tacos, I saw a sign that read "The BBQ Man Behind the Containers". There were containers stacked in a yard. We walked around and found a cute little grub truck with a few tables next to a recycling place and limo company. The BBQ Sticks are $2 each. We tried the steak, chicken and crispy chicken. The sign said to be patient because all of the Sticks are good to order on the grill. We liked the beef and chicken but were not impressed with the house specialty crispy chicken. This place also serves shrimp and plate lunches for around $6.

WORLD'S BEST DUMPLINGS IN SHANGHAI

WORLD'S BEST DUMPLINGS
SOMEWHERE IN SHANGHAI

We were given a note from the employees of a Shanghai Coffee house. The note contained the name and address of a very famous dumpling restaurant in Shanghai. We went there not knowing what to expect. Once we arrived some locals assisted us in ordering. The cost was 20 yuan for two. This equates to about $3.50. After observing our lack of knowledge, the people next to us told us to pop a hole in the dumpling and drink the juice. This was all by hand gestures because no one in the joint spoke english. We were in a totally different world and loved it. We would have stayed and ate more, but they did not serve beer. Hands down the best dumpling I have ever eaten in my life.
