we're a goin' to a hukilau

Nothing too exciting going on in these parts. Two bits of news that I've heard. One thing is about the new GM at the Tower theater. This is a real surprise but I don't want to spill the beans unless he's going to step forward himself and tell because I'm not sure if it's supposed to be general knowledge. The other is that the Loft is closing for band practice for good. As Davey said, "no more loft smell". Sad. I hope the four eyes can still continue their christmas show tradition. If not, please don't tell Scott because I worry that he will hurt himself. What are the bands going to do? I'm not sure who still practices there besides Rock the Light and the Four Eyes.

I'm eating at Spataro tonight, which I'm pretty excited about. I'm getting a discount from taking care of my roomates boyfriend's cat if that makes any sense. I was walking by Hukilau last night and it was somewhat crowded. What is the deal with that place? I don't get why there are any hawaiian restaurants in town (there are two downtown if you count L and L). They're not exactly known for their cuisine. Poi is like the only thing they made up. Other than that there's roast pig (OK, that one's pretty good but hardly unique) and a love of spam. How can you base a restaurant on that? I'm curious about Hukilau, though. I want to try it just so I can write a review.

I have never been impressed with that place. It is kinda fun to go there for Happy Hour with friends and get lots of sweet icey-drinks... Daquiris, etc.

Their salmon sandwich isnt bad. Kinda salty though.

I mean, its not bad or good. Its just food. That was my impression.

The pork sandwich is ok. Never liked the burgers there.
The daquiris are good- if you are into that kind of thing. Stronger than you might think....
You know it is owned by the Virgas, right?

I recommend the flip-flops in pineapple sauce. Delicious!

I went there a long time ago and it just kinda reminded me of Lyon's with a Hawaiian theme. Maybe it's gotten better. Those Slurpee machines are a cool way to be greeted when you first walk in, though. Known as Slur'pee'ono'a'i to the Hawaiians.

hukilau is not good. actually, i should not put hukilau and good in the same sentence. hukilau is bad.
and it is not hawaiian, not that i know what hawaiian food is...but burgers and fries? i'm gonna say that's not hawaiian.

buuuuut, if anyone is ever down in stockton, i have a great recommendation. manny's california fresh cafe. it is right on the stockton miracle mile. it is all grass fed and free range meat. my lovely gf got a chicken sandwich. the chicken is rotisserie style and you can buy it by the piece, but she got the sandwich bc that's how she rolls. it was on a long roll that was pressed. it was really good. i got a ribeye sandwich that was on the same type of long roll that was also pressed. free range, grass fed ribeye! so good. we also got fried oysters that were fresh and delicious and it came with really good french fries. two iced teas too and the total was 20 bucks for a lot lot of food. super friendly people too. if this place was in sacto, it would go into the weekly rotation. if this place was anywhere, it would go into the weekly rotation.

They have two locations in stockton to serve you better. I am wishing I had a fish sandwich and a whole steamed artichoke and a fried oysters from there right now!

Yea, Manny's on the Miracle Mile is great! As Ella mentioned, Angelina's is another good 'un! And then there's Pollard's Chicken Kitchen on Hwy 99--it's an old 50s roadside attraction /restaurant complete with it's own ghost town in back (buildings are from old western movie sets!). The main restaurant is actually the old Islander (a Tiki/Polynesion joint that was Ben Holt & Pacific Ave) building that was moved there after they went belly up.

May I join your Stockton Boosters Association--I'm an armchair Stockton/Delta historian. If anyone's interested in San Joaquin valley history go to the Haggin Museum (http://www.hagginmuseum.org/) on Pershing Avenue. It's an old stylee museum everyone should visit after eating at Manny's...

I'll get the ladies to smoke their cigars in the men's room. That'll take care of both smells. It's that kind of sharp thinking that got me asked to manage.

I have a great 40 dollar a month cellphone plan that always costs 53 dollars, so no, I don't have any advice. Maybe you should just have an intercom system with tin cans and string inside tower, and one long string to your house.

I've been going to Pollardville a long time. Seen a lot of changes out there. Imagine if you will that Pollardville was junkier, like with even more piles and piles of neat old junk lying around rotting, that the "riverboat" was still regularly putting on Melodramas (can anyone believe this? someone should make a film on those Pollards!) and most of the "town" was rented out as apartments to a rural stockton tweaker contingent. Oh, I forgot, the entire town was overrun by a huge huge bunch of semi feral cats. I remember one day showing up, and there was an antique church altar piece sitting behind the restaurant, and on every level of this altar, packed in side to side were cats, just sitting there. Must have been three levels of them. I half expected them to burst into song.

I have always wanted to have a party/filming of a spagetti western out there. Mike R. Mike is invariably the leader of the good guys. Smitty should probably be the leader of the bad guys. They would be great.

Remember the Pollardville slogan?

"The Chicken That Won The West"

Amen

BTW Mr. Mars, I'm stoked that the islander (lost in a poker game I understand?) is Pollardville! I've got tiki mugs from the islander and even asked a couple old stocktoners I know about it. I heard it was knocked down!

Yes, the Islander survives! I've got tiki mugs from there too (I'd like to find more The Happy Steak ware though). A childhood neighbor of mine actually cooked at the Islander in the 70s...

Speaking of tiki themed establishments, back in the 60s the late Earle Stanley Gardner (writer/creator of the Perry Mason books + teevee show) kept his houseboat at Tiki Lagun marina in Stockton as his base of operations for exploring the Delta. He considered the area his second home and his Delta books have great pics from that period. Tiki Lagun still exists...

I have avoided going to Hukilau. They are trying to capture the tiki experience without being too deliberately polynesian. They are mere shadows of classic Sacramento tiki dives like the Zombie Hut.

For the real fake Hawaiian eatery experience, go for the Big Kahuna on Eighth and L, around the corner from the Berry Hotel. The "Big Kahuna Burger" is roughly the size of the sun. Have them with a side of "Big Kahuna's Balls."

Does the Hukilau do a "Loco Moko" or whatever that crazy beef/egg/rice/Spam thing is?

Anonymous said...

June's cafe has Loco Moko, or some version of it. She's never been to Hawaii but a customer described Loco Moko to her & she has a version that I'm sure is all her own. Shamefully, I haven't tried it yet. It's post-me trying-everything-on-the-menu but damn, it's so insane looking that I don't want to eat it & go back to work!

Junes is way better, id say.

L&L is good but the hamburger patty used for the Loco Moko and (probably the burgers) is about as bad as it gets, complete with foreign white hard chunks.

Mmmmmmmmm. Most places just call it "Spam over rice and egg." Be sure to ask for the Lee Kum Kee brand oyster sauce with it though--that's the gooood brand. We used to cook that for lunch at my last job at the fish'n tackle shop (on a portable butane stove in the stock room)...

Is there any decent Spam musubi (ie, Spam sushi) to be had in this town?

Hukilau has a surprisingly good breakfast and it's not that crowded on the weekends. There's a white trash version of eggs benedict with biscuit instead of english muffin, gravy instead of hollandaise and scrambled instead of over easy eggs. Okay, maybe it's nothing like eggs benedict but it's pretty delicious.

I gotta say that when OMF told me the news about Tower last night, I was pretty puzzled, but in that sort of way where you're watching a really weird mystery movie and when you find out who-done-it and why, you're totally blown away. Sorta like what M Night Shyamalan thinks his movies are all supposed to be like. But I mean, Dave went to the Oscars, so he's automatically qualified. In all seriousness, I like to think that it'll be good for Tower. Plus, for some reason it's just kind of funny.

About Hukilow: It is so unremarkable that I ain't even gon' try'n spell it right. I was convinced to go there by Dave Seapig who is something of an indoor helmet wearer, if you know what I mean. Not impressive. Decor is a X between Lyons/Eppies/Applebees and Ernestos. To create "mood" they rock that dimmer switch. Someone (Shawn?) mentioned happy hour. I have to say, "ditto, Rush" on that. On one of those 100-plus degree days, getting super stoned and having a bunch of those sweet drinks is a very pleasant way to get through the hot n dry sacto thing.

About Spaghetti westerns: I want to play the slow-witted deputy to Mike R Mike's who would never let him down, or play the same Barney Fife type who ends up trying the double cross because Smitty the evil sheep herder who use to herd sheep through the Cartwright spread gave me thirty pieces of silver. My last scene could be dying in MrM's arms and telling him where the outlaw is holed up.

Speaking of holes, if there is gonna be some sort of Welcome Aboard soiree for Smitty and a lame Matthias imitator is needed, I am available.

OMF as the undertaker, who also doubles as some other perveyor in the town, and I can't think of what it would be, but it'd have to be something that is slightly sickly ironic to be done by an undertaker, but still kosher for 50's hollywood.

There also needs to be a two-food wide shotgun house chinese laundromat with the owner/operator played by somebody who could not pass as asian even if they were standing perfectly still and not talking during an overcast midnight blackout on a new moon.

Darin, of course, should be the justice of the peace.

Also Ed? I like to be challenged in an acting role, even if I get a little typecast, but cann't you find a part for me to play that I'd actually have to act for?

Anonymous said...

Simply because I think we are all too poor to come up with horses, I think it's going to be a shoot out kind. If we rented one horse, we could shoot like 15 different people on it, and cut it in, like we had 15 horses. Cause that would be good for the "train robbery" part which we can shoot in the front of the complex, on the junky old rusted train they've got. But no horse = no horse whipping.

we could just get a fake cowhide blanket from Denaio's and put somebody underneath it to flinch when the blanket gets wipped, and make it a low, wide-angle shot from the perspective where the bottom foreground is a close-up of the "horse" and the person wipping it is standing in the middleground in forced perspective with a horizonal termination of the background. That way, thew viewer beleives it's really a horse that's already been beaten to the ground, and they don't even have to see the head, mane, hooves, legs or tail.

A little Peter Jackson, a little Orson Welles, and a lot of Ed Wood. Ba da bing; almost zero budget, Hollywood-calibur wink-and-a-smile effects!

How about this: Straight to Hell 2.

It'll be the sequel to the really crappy mock-spaghetti western from the 80's that had the Pouges in it, but have nothing to do with that movie at all.

We could make the western take place in 1914. I mean, usually westerns take place in the latter 19th century, but 1914 is still fair game for gold old western stylin's. Consider if you will the Life ad Times of Judge Roy Bean that has action in it that continues well into the 1920's.

Anonymous said...

I'm with you Olsen. I even like the idea of taking it into the depression, simply because we could do such a better job of costuming that way. But the teens is good because the saloon girls could still be flouncy and feathery whereas in the depression I'd have to make them more languid and jazzy. It's just hard to come up with the right clothes for anything prior to the 20's but I've done it and I can do it again with enough forwarning.

Okay, goldrush era is actually makes a lousy western. It could be taking place in a goldrush town after the urbanization and the early decline of the west. Pollardville on the brink of becoming a ghost town. I mean, come on. The goldrush era makes for a totally different kind of western. "Westerns" that take place before the civil war are kind of in a different genre that almost isn't a western.

The 1850's? That's not a western...that's a goldrush movie, and there's a totally different sense of proriety in an established western hamlet than there was going to be during the expansion era (1869-1910) And the end of the expansion era, just before WWI, it's perfect, because it's a bunch of stagnant, leftover, out-of-touch yahoos still clinging to their old crummy town that began in the goldrush, boomed when the railroad came through, and then started to dry up when the fences covered the plains states. It's beautiful! It's despirate and dying enough to be tragic and pathetic, but still close enough to the boom that it's still a classic western.

Plus, in a western town in 1914, other than a few mod cons that would look out of place in the 1880's or 90's, anything old-timey westerny is still going to fly. These people are out of touch.

Okay, three words for ya..."The Three Amigos". That takes place in 1916, and it's a brilliant western.
