It’s not often that I’m in town looking for places to eat, and that’s why I never knew about Teddy’s Bigger Burgers and Kokoro Tei in the Moiliili area. I don’t remember what was in this area before, but surely, it wasn’t this mini-complex of food eateries that also includes Domino’s Pizza.

You’re probably well aware of Teddy’s yummy burgers, but have you heard of the made-to-order Japenese bentos of Kokoro Tei? Not only is your bento made to order, but prices are very affordable. Don’t expect huge portions but enough to feel satiated. Look for their sign on Beretania St.

Here’s just a sampling of the newer menu items.

Don’t expect to dine in with only six seats available on two tables!

After a short wait, here’s what your bento looks like.

Now for the biggest problem with location – the limited parking. Sure, the adjoining parking lot looks big until you see this sign.

Yep, park in only the 20 marked stalls since the rest are for residents in the upper apartments. Still though, the grinds are good enough to deal with the limited parking.
