March 31st, 2010 at 12:11 am
I almost went to bed. Was getting sleepy waiting for the blog to appear.
Anudder tough one.
Although I have never been. Maru Hi restaurant in Mililani?
And you'se wuz dea fo eat?
March 31st, 2010 at 12:12 am
Don't know where it is but my guess is that it's a boat.
March 31st, 2010 at 12:16 am
Sam Choy's--Breakfast lunch & crab..
March 31st, 2010 at 12:16 am
Sanrio store buying Bad Badtz Maru?
March 31st, 2010 at 5:30 am
Still trying to figure out where and what it is...but were you there for your Poke series from the other site?
March 31st, 2010 at 6:09 am
Wow Ed my only guess is wrong. No clue.
March 31st, 2010 at 6:18 am
Hanamaru ... In honor of my buddy, @che =)
March 31st, 2010 at 6:21 am
Marukai booth at the Pan Pacific Festival thingy you went to at the Convention Center, you was there for that fundraiser ... sampling all the grinds.
March 31st, 2010 at 6:28 am
My first guess would have been Maru-hi in Mililani too but I don't think so...no clue. btw, Maru-hi was a favorite place to eat a while back but ownership change resulted in food not da same so stopped going. Maybe I should give them a try again. I usually go next door to Phuket Thai instead, excellent pad thai and spring rolls.
March 31st, 2010 at 7:09 am
Marukai in Ward Center.
March 31st, 2010 at 7:58 am
just checkin' in one fast one, but nobody got um yet!
Hint: no "Maru" in the name. I'll be back after these deadlines stop kickin' my butt. :\
March 31st, 2010 at 7:59 am
@hemajang: we always go to maru hi in mililani and like the food. in fact, we were just there on saturday night and the beef sukiyaki was on point. you should give it a try again.
March 31st, 2010 at 8:20 am
... hey Ed ... yup yup ... thanks to kako mochi and hemajang for taking over your duties ... while you were gone ... and for continuing my misery ... in being clueless on where da fricken pics are!!! ... nah, nah it's was all fun!!! ...
... and now that you're back ... we're back to the same ridiculously hard places ... that only Coconut Willy can figure out!!! ... he nevah get 'um yet??? ... and even with the big hint ... ehhh ... maybe "maru" not even in da name ...
... but everyone already guessed the only "Maru" stuff I can think of ... what about Marukitei in Windward Mall??? ... I don't think it looks like that, though ... haven't been there in a while ...
... oh well, I can't wait ... til next weeks WIHIES ...
... Have A Good One Everyone!!! ...

USS Bowfin Submarine Museum and Park (my first guess wring I suppose).
The Tama Maru is a mine sweeper? (the S. Korean navy could've used such last week, no? Quite)
April 1st, 2010 at 6:57 am
