wow, didn't know they had one in Oahu, i must've missed it while vacationing there last year.
I hope to try MOS burger maybe next time in Japan...
It was near the Louis Vuitton store on Kalakaua Avenue. I think I showed Dochira where the restaurant was after we finished at the bar...
Good stuff man! But I have to admit that they do it better in Japan. _________________

Japan baby! Don't think you can get that stuff anymore in Hawaii. (the next best place ) haha!
I know when I was a kid, they had one Makai Marketplace. But they closed down shortly. I don't think they last very long here. Too much McDonald's and stuff. And McD's don't even taste as good...
But you know what they say about real estate? "location, location, location". That was Ray Kroc's ultimate motive when he started McDonald's, or so I read.... _________________

No doubt. The service is great however, the burgers are smaller than micromachines! _________________

TOKYO; A bluefin tuna fetched the second highest price ever paid at 9.75 million yen at Tokyo's Tsukiji wholesale market on Wednesday as bidding grew intense on greater demand ahead of the year-end and New Year holidays, market officials said.
The 325-kilogram bluefin tuna was caught in the Tsugaru Strait between Aomori and Hokkaido prefectures and shipped from Aomori's Oma Port. (Kyodo News)

At today's exchange rate that's 82,571.20 USD
Erm.. that is insane. Too insane. Too much money. But I would love to have a bit of it.
