Honestly I had higher hopes for this sandwich when I read the menu that said "Ferguson's Famous Grilled Cheese Specials" and boasted a Mac n Cheese with Jalapenos grilled cheese for $10. It was tasty, don't get me wrong, but I guess the way it came out all sliced up into quarters, served with store bought chips and on a paper plate it seemed a little pricey for what you were getting. The sandwich itself was yummy. The mac n cheese was perfectly cooked and seasoned well. The jalapenos added just the right amount of kick to it. I would have preferred my sandwich sliced in two and not in tiny sections you would give to a 5 year old. The pub is quaint and cute with a nice little patio area. I would definitely go back to check out more of the menu for some pau hana with friends.
From traditional casseroles to deep fried mac 'n' cheese bites the size of baseballs, mac 'n' cheese pizza and even mac 'n' cheese pancakes...if it is made with mac 'n' cheese...we want to eat it. Lucky we live Hawaii! The melting pot of cultures, abundance of foodies, and innovative chefs provide us with ample opportunity for mac 'n' cheese devouring adventures. Chee-Hoo!

Cheddar Bacon Mac & Cheese Flavored Lay's Potato Chips
Gingerface's boyfriend bought us a bag of the Cheddar Bacon Mac & Cheese flavored chips to eat together since we are the queen connoisseurs of mac & cheese. We met up for lunch where I provided a salad in an attempt to counteract the bag of chips we were going to eat. Not to mention the delicious cupcakes our friends dropped off that were visiting the island. We headed down to the little outdoor seating area and prepared to be WOWed. At first pop, it's just a cheesy chip. Tasty and cheesy but where's the bacon? I suggested we place a chip in our mouth and just suck on it to try to get the bacon flavor. You really have to just let it disintegrate away in your mouth before that bacon pops, if at all. The chips were definitely cheesy, reminiscent of Ruffles cheddar chips, but the bacon was more subtle. I guess the chip stands in for the actual macaroni part of the title? I think if you are going to use the word "bacon" in your title, you should amp it up. I probably would have named 10 other things these would be named before choosing Cheddar Bacon Mac & Cheese if they were given to me without a title. Wtf does the Mac & Cheese part have to do with it anyway? Cheddar (with a hint of Bacon) is a more accurate description. They are still super yummy though, because they are potato chips, cheese flavored to boot. Just don't get sucked in to the magical words "Bacon" or "Mac & Cheese" or you will be disappointed. For us it was a wonderful excuse to have lunch together, something we should definitely do more often. Mahalo to Our Beerded Savior for the thoughtful gift.
