Great beef noodle soup, fried porkchop rice and of course no weekend is complete without the chinese breakfast burrito. Note that the stinky tofu here is not that stinky, Herman suggests the regular fried tofu instead!

Casual fresh seafood eatery. We love the lobster rolls, crab melts and chowder! Our strategy is to order just one more item than the family of eight at the next table.

The debate rages on which burger joint is the best. Why decide, let's have both! For the record, Herman prefers In-N-Out while Tingting swears by Super Duper.

Our favorite place in Honolulu, they serve the most light and delicious breakfasts and smoothies. There's often a wait, so grab a coffee at the Starbucks across the street first! We stayed at the hotel above the Starbucks during Tingting's first trip to Hawaii.

We love Lady M's signature crepe cake. Not too heavy, not too sweet, perfectly balanced ... just like Herman. He had a good friend bring two slices in from New York for Tingting's birthday.

The best tacos in the world are here. Careful with the spicy sauce, but do not miss the classic al pastor. Long lines but the tacos are worth it. Wander the night markets of old town Puerto Vallarta afterwards and enjoy a delicious flan.
