tusks missing on the front he just said
3:50
you'd rather it be someplace that people
3:52
want to see it and appreciate it and you
3:53
know I did there are these are the
3:54
different flavors that you add into the
3:56
yeah we make all our syrups every
3:58
morning so we're actually starting hey J
4:06
give me a rundown of what you you
4:08
brought these m as these my tight
4:12
glasses made by Tiki Tony and tickle and
4:14
training the abroad age from your homes
4:16
to my home but this particular one is
4:18
some of the favorite things from traders
4:20
Sam's yeah Canada tiki bar is very nice
4:24
of them to give give us this little area
4:28
back here to hang out in also here on
4:35
the this photo on photo frame on the
4:38
side of the wall is Sam seafood which in
4:41
later years became Don the Beachcomber
4:43
and this is still still there on the
4:46
side of Pacific Coast Highway that fish
4:49
up in the air
4:50
hi guys I'm Jason Lauderdale I'm one of
4:51
the owners of hula girl shave ice this
4:54
is just some of our art in our back room
4:56
this is our keiki room back here we
4:58
actually called it the hula hideaway
4:59
before
5:00
the tropical hideaway but so this is
5:03
just some of the art this is one of our
5:04
original menus from Shelter Island Bali
5:07
Hai so I'm really stoked on that piece
5:09
we've had it for a long time but this is
5:12
another one of my favorites so the
5:14
Disney artist he's a fine artist Jimmy
5:16
Mulligan was actually here with his kids
5:18
watching wanna add our bar and he drew
5:20
it for us a strawberry lemonade Dolin
5:23
it's strawberry and lemon dole whoops
5:27
world over simply lemonade slush okay
5:31
you strawberry puree and then a little
5:33
lemon candy look pretty dang good now I
5:36
said I wasn't gonna have a dull whip but
5:37
I think I might break my promise to
5:39
myself because that looks pretty
5:40
appetizing and is this something you
5:42
normally servers ah this is our first
5:44
time oh this is the first literally the
5:46
first one we made whoa
5:59
is it what's the proper thing to do - I
5:59
eat with a spoon or do I use a straw
6:00
well it's basically like a float so
6:02
there's a flush so you can drink this
6:05
less first or take a body or take a bite
6:07
of both you can do whatever you may get
6:09
oh with the top part here okay my
6:16
statement about the Dole Whip has just
6:18
gone out the window that good old man
6:22
remind me again what this what is the
6:24
the sauce the cream on here what flavor
6:28
is this um it should be a strawberry and
6:31
lemon like a lemon curd oh yeah I taste
6:36
the strawberry now wow that is good I
6:43
can't wait to try it it looks so good to
6:45
me
6:45
do you want to buy to this are you gonna
6:47
share with me or are you getting your
6:49
own will have to decide I'm gonna
6:56
handedness and I supposed to eat this
6:58
right yeah woo I've tasted the
7:03
strawberry being the most prominent
7:04
flavor really of the two that's what my
7:08
taste buds are going towards
7:11
kind of surprised to that
7:23
but you can taste the women rarely
7:23
gigaset tell me if you taste those yeah
7:33
yeah you taste the lemon you taste the
7:33
lemonade flavor more through the straw
7:34
on the top it was just all strawberry
7:36
okay get the old brain freeze as it
7:43
works I mean a very happy spoon I'm
7:46
honored to try a new menu item it had
7:48
never been tested out before it's
7:50
delicious
7:51
it's always scary to try something out
7:54
because we haven't tested it I feel a
7:56
little awkward you guys watching me like
7:57
this but mmm
8:00
change that how can you change that like
8:03
I'm being judged you are being judged
8:07
I was just alerted this is not a real
8:09
limit it's a gummy lemon huh yeah I had
8:14
a gummy lemon before I guess it's just
8:16
like something you get piece of candy
8:19
the non real piece of fruit hmm yep all
8:27
right yours has arrived J yours has
8:32
arrived there you go it's in your cup so
8:38
you changed it up for J's Porter well
8:41
just to see I mean I should have a
8:42
little more lemony taste so I was
8:43
worried that the strawberry overpowered
8:44
it so it's the same thing I just
8:46
consumed but his has less strawberry
8:48
yeah well there's no strawberry puree
8:50
it's just the simply eliminates wash I
8:53
mean that's all we used for the slash is
8:55
straight up some cool lemonade
9:02
there goes our secret it wasn't very
9:02
suited about much J might be the only
9:06
person I know that does not get brain
9:09
freeze at all like he will consume any
9:12
item that is freezing cold and just down
9:15
it like a champ
9:16
this is literally so neighing good you
9:22
having trouble with that yeah you know
9:24
you do have a speaking spoon scale of
9:29
one to ten don't say 11
9:33
don't be cliche well there is no 11 on a
9:37
scale of 1 to 10 just sit you down I
9:41
love strawberry lemon I'm not the
9:44
biggest fan of I can eat it this
9:47
so with lemon not my favorite but
9:49
strawberries good I'll give it eight
9:51
point five Bobo to know that I would put
9:53
the strawberry on yours no I still love
9:55
it's good it could have said I mean it's
9:57
still delicious this one goes to a lemon
10:01
high score a lemon not 11 listen we run
10:06
this joke is race course I'm sure I'm
10:08
not the only one that is wondering how'd
10:09
you come up with the name of the of the
10:11
place so we've always had shave ice
10:14
machines since I was younger my dad
10:16
actually used to help work on he was a
10:18
he worked in engineering for Ford
10:20
aerospace and
10:22
when we first started my young daughter
10:25
who's actually now with Disney one of
10:29
her friends had cancer at the school and
10:31
they were doing a lemonade stand and she
10:32
didn't want to do a lemonade stand she
10:34
wanted to do a shave ice fan so we broke
10:36
out the shave ice machine and it did
10:37
really really well a lot of my friends
10:40
who were from boy of their son's first
10:43
birthday which is a little oh we went
10:44
there did shave ice for him and one of
10:46
the ladies from the pediatric cancer
10:47
who's Hawaiian loved it so much he
10:49
wanted us to come and do the pediatric
10:50
cancer run and she says we need a name
10:52
to promote it as the best shape if I
10:54
said that on the mainland so my wife
10:56
said well Jason's always called his
10:58
daughters we have two daughters his
10:59
little hula girls so it's the girls
11:02
shave ice another daughters they did
11:04
cool I'm actually still both of my
11:06
daughters are you know throwing
11:08
beautiful women you know one of my
11:09
daughters works at Disney now we're just
11:11
super stoked on everything we've been
11:13
blessed hey what year did you open 2004
11:16
is the official year that but we've been
11:18
doing it for probably two three years
11:20
before that
11:20
okay so almost 20 years yeah and this is
11:23
a photo of something you create on rare
11:25
occasions it's if kids had a bad day
11:30
something's happened traumatic in their
11:31
life so it's not all in the minute it's
11:33
not on the menu and and I think I've
11:35
made eight of them and unfortunately
11:37
it's always been dire circumstances it's
11:39
just anything I can do to help a kid
11:41
have it a little better day
11:50
he's making something out it is she
11:50
didn't tell me what it is but you went
11:52
back in the kitchen it is making
11:54
something else I'm very anxious see what
11:59
it is okay this is what is this this is
12:05
a high-end style it's like a bento box
12:07
without the rice on the sides okay
12:08
excellent suit to masu B's with a mac
12:12
salad
12:13
it's a we've been doing with soubise for
12:16
a while and max all it's kind of my
12:17
favorite so we've been trying to come up
12:19
with like a little late lunch style for
12:21
the summer uh it's kind of like a
12:23
Japanese Hawaiian blend so what it is is
12:25
a teriyaki fried spam over sushi rice
12:29
election and nori wrap and then with
12:32
Hawaiian style max out J what are you
12:36
thinking about this
12:37
I've never had spam where he never had
12:40
spam mm-hmm
12:51
messy and delicious mm-hmm it's a good
12:51
combo

12:57
curiously through you
13:00

13:06
rice it's a little bit of sea salt a
13:09
