Archive for the ‘Internet’ Category

This post is long overdue and I apologize for that. I try to keep my post as current and fresh as possible. As most of you already know, I’m still somewhat new to this island. Ray and I made a bold move back in March and dropped everything just to move out here. We didn’t have internet at first, but luckily the hotel next to us did, Ray’s computer was strong enough to grab it but it was slow and he needed to get work done. He searched for places that offer free wifi and are within walking distance online at wififreespot.com. Coconut Cafe was on the list and really close so we decided to pack up our laptops and have lunch there.
The place is extremely small, not really an ideal place to work. I think there were 3 tables and all two seaters. We scan the menu and this is what we got.

 

Ray ordered the Seafood Mixed Sandwich, $4.99. All sandwiches are served with your choice of lettuce, tomato, onions, pickles, cheese, cucumbers, carrots, mayo, and mustard. He said this sandwich didn’t taste right. The seafood tasted bad like it had been sitting there in a tuperware container for a while. I took a bite and it tasted a bit mushy. I’m not a fan of seafood sandwiches unless it’s grilled.

 

I couldn’t decide so of course I resorted to dessert. I got the Azukibean Shaved Ice with condensed milk, $3.99 but the condensed milk cost an extra .75. This was rather large and a little messy. It looks more exciting than it tasted.

 

 

I also forgot to mention that online it states that internet was free, which was the reason why we went there in the first place. When we got there it cost $8.00 a day. Of course we didn’t pay, that’s just ridiculous and false advertising.

After reading Kathy’s food blog about Andy’s one day I had to see what all the fuss was about, so a few days later I rounded up the boys, Ray, Shane, and Justin and we went out in search of this famous sandwich place. Ray’s a sandwich whore. He loves Subway, Quizno’s and just deli’s in general. I’ve eaten more sandwiches in the last two years I’ve been with him than my whole entire existence. I always thought that sandwiches were a bit juvenile, made solely for the younger days of elementary school when we were forced to bring a plastic lunch box that accommodated a matching thermus filled with apple juice. Inside the box would almost always be some kind of monotonous sandwich, usually peanut butter and jelly or baloney and cheese. After the fourth grade I really can’t recall ever eating or having the desire to eat another sandwich, and then I met Ray. I have to admit, sandwiches have grown on me. Although, I can’t eat them all day like Ray can, I do appreciate a good sandwich ever now and then and Andy’s is perfect for those occasions.


Andy’s is a small, family owned and operated deli. The menu is written on super bright fluorescent paper. Sandwiches run around $5.00.

This is the Chicken Burger, $3.85. I think it resembles a sandwich more than it does a burger, but hey, it’s Andy’s store, he could name it whatever the hell he wants.


Roast Beef Sandwich, $4.50.

 


I ordered the Eggplant Melt, $5.85.

All the sandwiches were amazing. I have to agree with Kathy when she says the sandwiches “leaves you satisfied, not full.” Sometimes it’s liberating not being a glutton whore.
Another reason why I love Andy’s is they have Wifi. You gotta appreciate places that openly give access to free Internet.

Andy’s is another place that proves good food doesn’t mean you have to ass rape your customers just to stay in business

Internet and cafe, they’re just so perfect together, it had to be destiny. I think all cafe shops should offer free internet. Shane, Ray and I are all internet whores. There’s this cafe we go to called Metis and so far it’s the best internet cafe on the island. We’re totally open to trying other cafes, as long as there’s internet available. One day Ray and I grabbed our laptops and went out in search of new internet cafe. Where did we end up? Morning Brew in Kailua.

Ray ordered his usual cafe mokka, for $3.30. I couldn’t decide so of course I follow my infamous words of wisdom, “when in doubt order sugar,” and that’s exactly what I did. I ordered some brownie carmel thing. It was beautiful and would have made a decadent treat if Ray had shared with me. One thing about me is that not only do I love to eat and try other peoples food, but I also love to share my food. Hey sharing is caring and I fucking “Kea.” So when people don’t eat or even try my food, I get offended and butt hurt, like, “who the fuck do you think you are, think your better than me, better than my brownie, too good for your own good. Can’t even take a bite. Fuck you and your shitty cafe mocha. That thing probably has more calories and fat than my brownie anyway. Donkey dick,” At least that’s what I telepathically said to him, I think the message got lost somewhere in translation. My point is the brownie was too much, just over the top. After eating it all I felt like a fresh bag of shit.

Also there’s a full menu with prices that your wallet will be happy with, like a hummus bagel $3.25, organic large curry chicken salad $6.75 and Nachos $5.85.

Internet, cafe, and sugary goodness, together at last.

Mac for life baby. If only I had bought some stock in it a decade ago.
