After salad? Yes please. After The Cat did her shopping. After the salads (see previous post) digested. Before heading home for Sunday nap. Hee hee.
Kona Coffee Ice Cream
The Cat’s.
Acai Bowl
The Mouse’s. Half acai, half yuzu. Mmm. One of the few frozen desserts The Mouse can consume happily without lactose consequences. Hee hee.
Stay safe and well.

The Cat’s dinner last weekend.
Cream of Mushroom Soup
From the Italian cafe up the street.
Chef’s Vegetables, Mushroom Risotto
.
Vanilla Bean Ice Cream, Cinnamon Apple Crisp
The ice cream is supposed to go on top of the crisp, but the servers know us and serve it on the side so The Mouse can partake of the crisp. Dairy issues. Ick!
Enjoy. Eat well.

The Mouse (and The Cat) is (are) back. Short trip to Hilo, semi-business for The Cat, The Mouse went along kinda as driver. Pics and stories coming. In the meantime, last night dinner. Schedule still out of whack, jet lag and all. Hee hee.
Max’s of Manila, near The Mouse’s workplace.
Dishes that meet The Cat’s food preferences.
Pinakbet
Vegetables? Check. Soupy? Check.
A little too much shrimp paste for The Mouse’s taste, good with rice though.
Papaya Chicken Soup
Again, soupy? Check. Vegetables? Check.
Well cooked. Chicken was not “dried out” from overcooking, papaya was soft, but not falling apart.
Really though, the main reason for coming here was for the ube ice cream (The Cat was jonesing for).
Ube Ice Cream
The Cat would have gone for a bowl of Halo Halo, but watching her weight and too much food.
Enjoy. Eat well.

Yogurt
The Mouse thinks that was breakfast.
Ice Cream!
The Mouse thinks The Cat didn’t have a choice of flavors, but still, it’s ice cream. Hee hee.
Enjoy. Eat well.

Been doing a lot of meetings for the chocolate shop lately. Face time with potential corporate customers and investors. One meeting took way longer than planned. The Cat suggested lunch at Max’s of Manila (it’s close to the chocolate shop). They offer specials for lunch, Entrée, vegetable, and rice (plate lunch) for a reasonable price.
The Cat went with …
Fish in Black Bean Sauce
A combination of brown rice and red cargo rice. Vegetable was ung choi salad with tomatoes.
The Mouse’s choice.
Pork Belly
The pork belly was marinated in an Asian sauce then grilled? If I close my eyes, the taste reminded me of Chinese char siu pork (except with pork belly instead of pork loin). Rice was Max’s signature garlic rice. Vegetable was the same ung choi with tomatoes. The Mouse liked. Very much (both socks off worthy). A definite repeat order candidate.
When ordering the lunch special, customers have an option of adding a scoop of ice cream for one dollar. The Cat ordered ube ice cream.
The Cat’s Ube Ice Cream
The Cat was happiest about the ice cream, I was happy with my pork belly. 🙂
Enjoy. Eat well.
