On the North Shore of the island of Oahu in Hawaii there is a strip off the Kamehameha Highway thats lined with freshwater aquaculture farms embedded with delicious local grown shrimp.  In between these farms you will find a variety of food trucks or stands dishing out these mouth watering shrimp in style.  One in particular, Fumi's, makes an unbelievable version of Butter Garlic shrimp that puts me in daze every time I eat it.  From the juicy and always cooked perfect shrimp to the loads of garlic used in each portion just makes that experience a whole lot better.  Sit back as I chat with my cousin, Roxanne Bristol and her husband Chris who currently reside on the island of Oahu.     

In this weeks episode I sit with my good friend, Marcelino Jaime, and we talk about the famed Garbage Plate from Rochester, NY.  This is such an iconic dish and we wanted to introduce to everyone else out there the beautiful concoction that is the Garbage Plate.  A dish that is best eaten between the hours of midnight and 4am and completely inebriated.  Either way the next time your in the Upstate New York area, check out Nick Tahou Hots for the original Garbage Plate.   

To kick off our first episode for Best Dish Ever!, I wanted to introduce a dish that I fell in love in with about 6 years ago when I was working up in Boston for a week.  It was this little hole in the wall ramen spot in Cambridge called Yume Wo Katare.  They had this delicious jiro-style ramen that set my tastebuds in a frenzy and once I heard about the philosophy and vision this place had, it made my experience one of a kind.  Stick around as my friend, Stephen Semeia, and I converse over a life changing bowl of ramen.
