The caterer UA uses of of HNL is horrible. I usually eat the Obento meal out of NRT, but only sometimes from HNL. Quality of the filet mignon out of NRT is always better than out of HNL too.
Transpac Asian dishes served as second meals from HNL are atrocious. Roasted duck/chicken noodle dishes are full of skin. And the have the audacity to label one dish "char siu curry udon noodles" when no char siu (Chinese style roasted pork) is used at all, just shredded pork.
You can't fool us locals out of Hawaii! Can't keep wondering if the caterer greased somebody's palms to get the contract.
