BJ Penn On Family, Fighting Florian, and the Future
Rated 5.0 Stars
B.J. Penn. Say it but once and it commands respect. Unless you've been living under a rock for the last decade or so, the name B.J. Penn is one you're probably very familiar with. It's the same name that is revered in Mixed-Martial Arts circles and synonymous with that word "respect". Best of all, bruddah is ours; a son of the aina, born and raised in our backyard of Hawaii.

See and Eat Seattle - Part I
Rated 5.0 Stars
Ever notice that if you combine the words See and Eat, you (almost) get Seattle? Not quite sure what "tle" stands for just yet, but gimme some time and I'll figure it out. For now, let's just go with what nature, er, make that Doc Maynard has given us when he named Seattle in 1853 after chief Noah Sealth. Let's See and Eat Seattle shall we? More »

Kau Kau Kauai - Part 3
Rated 5.0 Stars
Well, we've finally made it gang. The 3rd and final part in our Kau Kau Kauai series. Please! Hold back your tears! In part 1, we spanned the Garden Isle for favorites such as Tip Top Motel & Cafe, Waimea Brewing Company, and Jo Jo's Shave Ice. The 2nd part of our series took us to Ono's Family Restaurant, Hamura's Saimin and Duke's, among others! Now, we'll round it all out with stops at such hotspots like the Cafe Hanalei Sunday Brunch, Brick Oven Pizza and Polynesia Cafe. More »

The 411 On Very Necessary In4Mation
It's said that growing up is an essential part of life. Or is it, life, is an essential part of growing up? Okay, okay, I graduated from a public school, don't laugh too hard. In either case, four childhood friends have realized that growing up TOGETHER has proven to be the ingredient for success. All of the partners share a common interest... doing what they did back in high school... surfing, skating, having fun. Add exclusivity in men's clothing, and a hungry appetite for quality, and you get yourself a thriving, still growing company that has literally exploded since its formal inception in April 2002.

Bangkok Chef - The Little Thai Restaurant That Could
Rated 5.0 Stars
Back in the day, when we used to play ball at the end of Iliahi Street, my boy Bari used to tell me that we just HAD to go and try this new Thai food place he was all hot and bothered for. Now I don't know about all y'all, but for me, after a long, hard, sweaty game of hoops, I'm not exactly in the mood for hot, steamy food. An icy cold, tall pitcher of [insert favorite brand name] sports drink maybe, but definitely not food. More »

Shave Ice Ice Baby
Something fishy is definitely going on here... The airports have been bustling with college folk and local eateries and nightclubs are a' bumpin'. You're no longer alone at the beaches and malls, and there's an unusually large amount of parties and family functions to get to. And let's not ignore the fact that you're sweating profusely like Kalua pig at a luau. Yep gang... like Bell Biv Devoe's Poison, Summer is in full effect! More »

Jimmy's Lakeside Bakery Cafe
If you're headed to the North Shore, making a stop at Wal-Mart in Mililani, or anything in Central Oahu, you MUST, and I stress MUST, try Jimmy's Lakeside Bakery Café. Located on historic Kemo`o Farms, Jimmy's Lakeside Bakery Café sits on the outskirts of Lake Wilson. More »

Sweet As Cinnamon
Mmm. When you hear the word, "cinnamon," what immediately comes to mind? Close your eyes and think for a moment. For me, it's mom making cinnamon rolls in the oven at home-from scratch. Smelling the dough, impatiently pacing back and forth, while trying not to get caught, touching the moist dough as it readies for the oven. Watching her knead, back and forth, then sprinkling with cinnamon, all atop of fresh butter and spices.

Wowie In Maui - Part I
Rated 5.0 Stars
No, the "wowie" in the title is not what you think, Cheech. I'm actually referring to all of the exciting things you can do while exploring the beautiful island of Maui. And in true World Wide Ed fashion, let's take the logical approach and break this thang down by sections, starting with the West Side of the Valley Isle... WessssSiiiide! More »

A Family Who Works Together, Stays Together
Rated 5.0 Stars
Rushing stores at the crack of dawn on Black Friday, having family over on Christmas Eve, or Christmas Day . . . wrapping presents, dropping off gifts, waiting for Santa, popping fireworks and going to pick up your order from Tanioka's? Yes, added to typical holiday traditions in Hawaii, is picking up your onolicious food from Tanioka's Seafood and Catering, located in the heart of Waipahu. More »

Closest Thing to Nana's Home Cookin'
You know, true local girl at heart, I love to eat. But being a single mom, I can't afford the most high-end type of places that many of my colleagues rave about. For me, its about value, convenience, and most importantly, taste. Since I normally cook at home, when I go out, I want to be able to find the next best thing to home cooking. Well, I can say I've found that... at a golf course? More »
