Best Chicken Katsu in Hawaii

All due respect to L&L and your auntie's cooking, Grace's on Beretania Street in Honolulu has the best chicken katsu plate lunch.  Comes complete with the ketchup/worcestershire katsu sauce, the best macaroni salad, kim chee and tossed salad.  Plus the katsu sits on a bed of chow fun, which, in itself would put some other restaurants' chow fun to shame.

It's also a good plate lunch to eat when drowning one's sorrows over a Super Bowl loss by the team you were hoping would win.

Changes on the McD Dollar Menu

We've been eating off the McDonald's "Dollar Menu" lately, ever since gas prices went north and the economy went south. One of my favorite items from the McD $Menu is the Double Cheeseburger.  Two layers of burger, diced onions, pickles, ketchup and American cheese, sitting between a fluffy hamburger bun.

Sadly the Double Cheeseburger has been taken off the $Menu and is now officially priced at around $1.19.  But, good news!  It's been replaced by the McDouble!  What's a McDouble?  I had to find out.  So I ordered one and opend it up.  What did I find? 

Two layers of burger, diced onions, pickles, ketchup and American cheese, sitting between a fluffy hamburger bun.

Huh?  Wait a minute!  It's exactly the same thing.  Or is it?

Someone making big bucks in the higher echelons at McDonald's corporate headquarters made a crucial executive decision! 

The official word from the Golden Arches is that the Double Cheeseburger has 2 slices of cheese.  The McDouble has only one slice of cheese!

If you asked me, that's an expensive slice of cheese!

What Happened to Pralines 'N Cream???

It is probably my all-time favorite flavor of ice cream.  The gooey caramel.  The sweet and crunchy pecans.  And all that ice cream!  I have not seen it in our supermarket freezer for months, maybe years.  Baskin-Robbins says they still have it.  Have you seen it in your grocer's freezer?  If you have, save me some.
