The Cat is making a short hop to Louisana and Texas.
Etouffee or Gumbo
With Cornbread.
Won Ton
Go figure.
The Mouse had a bowl of his own (not traveling).
Ahi Poke bowl (Ginger Flavor)
With added natto of course. Nom!
Enjoy. Eat well.

Not “weird” to The Mouse but understandably maybe “weird” to others. That’s okay, more for The Mouse. Hee hee.
One of our favorite sushi bars has this dish Omatsuri Natto. Natto with uni, ikura, ahi, ika, yamaimo, okra, and quail egg. The Mouse never ordered because he would be the only one eating. Sigh.
The Mouse made the stripped down version with leftover poke.
Poke and Natto
Dunno if this combo is a local thing but a couple of poke shops sell this combo over rice. Nom!
Dinner was still finishing the package of liver sausage.
Braunschweiger Slider Plate
Multi-grain dinner rolls, shiso, bread and butter pickles, turnip kimchi, and grape tomatoes. Yum!
Enjoy. Eat well.

The Mouse’s dinner. Local Boy Sushi. Primarily catering with a small take-out window.
Big Bruddah Bowl
Not that big, shallow bowl, not quite enough rice. Ahi poke (decent), spicy tuna (decent), kalua pork (good), smoked pork (winner), unagi (weakest link), shrimp tempura (passable).
And, no stop at Local Boy Sushi without Mr. Lee’s hamburger (deluxe).
Mr. Lee’s Hamburger Deluxe
Super old school. 😉
Enjoy. Eat well.

Saw this place on former co-worker’s Facebook:
Sign
For geezers like The Mouse and The Cat, used to be the old Yum Yum Tree location.
Lunches are “not sit down service”. Order at the counter, pick-up at the kitchen window, find your own table, take-out boxes and plastic utensils. Dinner (I’m told) is sit down service.
The Cat ordered off of the daily special menu.
“Game Day” Special
First time (except for tempura) The Cat orders a plate with deep fried food (she saw soft shell crab). 🙂
Shrimp, fish, calamari?, along with the soft shell crab (two!), rice and salad. The Cat liked.
The Mouse ordered:
Portobello Mushroom and Vegetable “Burger”
On taro bun with fries. Well made.
Restaurant also has a poke counter.
Toppings
Cute ya?
Mussel Poke with Sesame Seed Topping
Jus’ to try. Not bad. 🙂
The Cat approved a revisit in the future, maybe for dinner? Hee hee.
Enjoy. Eat well.

No Hawaiian plate this week.
Coworker got her hands on a Goteborg sausage from Kauai, and shared some with the office. For some reason which The Mouse does not know yet. A Kauai regional food. I don’t think any other island favors Goteborg sausage as much as Kauai. More research is needed.
Goteborg Sausage
Of course The Mouse had to try. For breakfast. Hee hee.
Sausage went well with the planned breakfast.
Vegemite Toast and Dried Plums
With Earl Grey tea. Director brought back a tea bag variety from her trip to Disneyland. Tea. Not Mickey hats. Sigh.
Finally got to try the “Student Special #1” from St. Louis Drive Inn down the hill from campus. Highly recommended by a coworker from the old job.
Student Special #1
Two burgers, French fries, drink. Six bucks.
Chomp View
Burger, a little sauce, bun. No other accoutrements. Super old school. On the plus side, burger wasn’t drowned in sauce. On the minus side, no lettuce/tomato (at least lettuce). Good to try though.
Another coworker brought in something she didn’t want for the two known food enthusiasts in the office.
Dragonfruit!
Coworker is not a vegetable/fruit eater plus not adventurous in the eating arena. The Mouse offered to cut a piece for her. Nope. That’s okay, The Cat and The Mouse benefit. 🙂
Nom!
Since The Mouse didn’t have lau lau and or kalua pork on Friday, picked up a little “cat food” on the way home. 🙂
Hamachi Poke
And a little “mouse treat” too.
Smoked Salmon Poke
The hamachi poke for dinner, the smoked salmon poke to snack on.
The Cat had lunch at Romano’s Macaroni Grill.
Eggplant Parmesan
The Cat brought home a little mousie bag, went into the freezer, probably will end up as part of one of The Cat’s bento next week.
Have a good weekend.
Enjoy. Eat well.
The Mouse
