		<title>Nori&#8217;s Saimin saltiness</title>
		<description><![CDATA[Nori&#8217;s has always been one of my favorite places to have a great bowl if saimin.  Unfortunately,  it&#8217;s like their broth is getting saltier and saltier every visit! 

This is one of my favs: small saimin and burger combo.  Nori&#8217;s burgers are always awesome&#8230; freshly made thick juicy patties.   Once [...]]]></description>

		<title>Le Magic Pan</title>
		<description><![CDATA[

Such a nice place!  Feels like I&#8217;m in Paris and I&#8217;ve never even been there before.
La Provencal crepe ($10).  Chicken breast, spinach, mushrooms, mozzarella, mustard. 

Alaska crepe (half size) with side salad ($10).  Red salmon, spinach, artichoke, mozzarella, olives.


Both crepes were delicious!  Crepe was so light, thin and moist and fillings [...]]]></description>

		<title>Uncle Don&#8217;s Ohana Grill (formerly Restaurant Kaikodo)</title>
		<description><![CDATA[
Last time I&#8217;ve been to the Kaikodo building was about 5 years ago when Restaurant Kaikodo was still open.  The food was great and the ambiance super nice.  Sadly, they ended up closing and it&#8217;s been empty for awhile, until Uncle Don&#8217;s Ohana Grill opened up just a few months ago.

		<title>How for order at Hilo Lunch Shop in 10 steps</title>
		<description><![CDATA[
No matter how many times I&#8217;ve been here before, I still feel nervous ordering.  You need to know what you want to order.  Man, da pressure is a lot for an indecisive guy like me!
I always refer tourists here for a great lunch&#8230; you know, somewhere the real locals eat.  But if [...]]]></description>

		<title>Test post from iPhone</title>
		<description><![CDATA[Howzit!  Lately I&#8217;ve been taking more pictures of food using my iPhone than my regular camera.  While I still prefer the old way, I need to make it easier to post so I post more.  Readers&#8230; are you still there? I hope you are and I hope you don&#8217;t mind some iPhone [...]]]></description>

		<title>Cafe Concerto</title>
		<description><![CDATA[I&#8217;ve been meaning to post about this place since my first visit in 2005 and can&#8217;t put it off no longer!

Really, I think this is the only &#8220;real&#8221; italian restaurant in Hilo.  Chef Lando Landi, a native Italian, puts so much love and passion into his food that it creates a wonderfully warm family style [...]]]></description>

		<title>Brown&#8217;s Beach House</title>
		<description><![CDATA[I don&#8217;t think I ever mentioned this before, but on the weekends (and some weekdays) I am a wedding photographer.  One of the best perks is all the great food I get to experience&#8230; plus no weird looks when taking photos of the food since that&#8217;s part of the &#8220;job&#8221;.  The last wedding had some [...]]]></description>
