Was in Kahuku for work around lunch... in the absence of food options, I thought I would try one of these Shrimp trucks that are everywhere on the North Shore...
Remembering back to that time in 2004 when I was here as a tourist and being VERY underwhelmed by the experience at Giovanni's, (the most popular shrimp truck on the NS... maybe because of it's name?) I thought- let's try this one... it has civilized parking and what looks like civilized sitting area.
Was I to be surprised and delighted? Â Nope.
Don't get me wrong... the ladies are nice enough that make your food... (aside from the fact that they need a PA to get your attention after 20 minutes of waiting for them to make your food- but they don't have one)
But I just don't get the allure of these shrimp trucks... sort of like I don't get the allure of Hawaii plate lunches... sacrilige I know... but egads I said it!
Yes... I don't enjoy this type of eating experience... a decrepit old panel truck with some messy shrimp that I have to peel... sitting in the hot Hawaiian sun... seriously... keep driving. Â Maybe stop for a photo opp. Â But no need to eat here or any other shrimp truck for that matter. Â Haleiwa Joe's is just up the road... where you can get table service and good food... and air conditioning.
Call me a downer if you want... but the food just doesn't make up for the lack of civilized eating experience. Â Seriously it doesn't... sucking my fingers to get the garlic off the shrimp... and shelling them... and these didn't even have the veins removed. Â No thanks. Â I'd rather eat Subway thank you.
So if you feel the need to jump on the 'Shrimp Truck' wagon... by all means don't let me stop you... but do understand you will be met with an austere environment at best, flies buzzing around you... cars zooming by... hot weather... shade if you are lucky... over priced food... and still have a messy, messy experience that you will by no means find memorable other than to say... 'I ate lunch at a North Shore Shrimp Truck...' Â I just don't get it. Â I guess there is a reason when I asked a whole family of locals why none of them eat at these places.
Some guide book 20 years ago made the myth popular and it's just perpetuated itself ever since.
Stop for a photo-op. Â Don't waste your time on the food.
We have been to a few shrimp wagons around Oahu and Kauai. Â This one was good. Â It had a lot of different kinds of shrimp to sample. Â We tried garlic, spicey, coconut, tempura, and fried. Â All were good and large. Â The plates came with two scoops of rice or once scoop of rice and once scoop of salad. Â The shrimp was served on a bed of plain cabbage.
Good stuff:
- The shrimp tasted pretty good.
- They peeled the shrimp for my kids without charging extra.
- Service was pretty quick.
Not so good stuff:
- The area could have been a lot cleaner.
- The coconut and tempura shrimp only came with about 5 pieces compared to 10 for the other plates.
- A little too much sauce for my taste.
- Rice was a little dry and had no toppings, which may not be bad, but it always helps.
Bottom line: good food, $11 a plate, not a bad place to stop and eat, but there might be something better out there. Â I have not yet been to Giovanni's.
TL;DR: I think this place is better than Giovani's. Hot/spicy is a delicious party in your mouth. Make sure to get it.
My family has been a patron of the more famous Giovani's for a long time but we decided to try 'Famouse Kahuku Shrimp Truck' because it had a slightly higher rating on Yelp. Luckily for us we made the mistake of... mistaking the 'Famouse Kahuku Shrimp WAGON' for the 'Famouse Kahuku Shrimp TRUCK'. And we are all really good we did!
A super friendly Korean lady greeted us and took our orders. We ordered two orders of the garlic/butter and 2 orders of the hot and spicy. At first glance, it looked pretty much like what you would get at Giovani's but I dare say that I think it tasted better.
Sorry to keep comparing but the first difference I noticed is that they peel a lot of the skin off for you. I think Giovani's just leaves the whole shell on. Having some of the shell off really made the eating experience much more enjoyable and less tedious. And for some reason, I felt that the shells were a lot softer. I ended up eating most of the shells because they were so soft and tasty.
OK, now I'm going to rave about the hot and spicy. Holy cow was the hot and spicy shrimp delicious. It's pretty much the garlic and butter shrimp with some magical sweet hot sauce that starts a party in your mouth. It's not too hot so don't worry about being overwhelmed by the heat.
My family and I will definitely be coming to Famous Kahuku Shrimp Wagon!
The place looks like a dump. An abandoned-looking truck with "graffiti" (customers can sign on the car), and a tent next to it with benches for people to eat on.
Prices are cheaper than Giovanni's, and they also offer a few other choices than shrimp (calamari and steak as well). Â I got the garlic shrimp. Juicy, flavorful, delicious. My parents-in-law got the spicy shrimp. They enjoyed it.
If you're venturing out to Kahuku for some Kahuku shrimp, you gotta stop here! This is the best shrimp truck! I ordered the garlic butter shrimp plate ($11) and my boyfriend ordered the steak and coconut shrimp plate ($13). It's a little cheaper than the other trucks but I still think that is still a little pricey. I would highly recommend their garlic butter shrimp! It's soooooooo good!
The shrimps are perfect! Not too over or undercooked. The eating area may not be the cleanest, but what do you expect... you're eating at a food truck. There's wooden tables outside for you to eat on and there's also a small sink for you to wash your hands after peeling those shells off those delicious little shrimps -- they're actually quite large, not little.
The food trucks out in Kahuku may seem a little dirty and gross since you're sitting right by a brown pond of shrimp and its poop, but the food is definitely worth it, especially at Famous Kahuku Shrimp Wagon!
We stopped by here with some friends on our way back from Turtle Bay. Â We actually stopped at Romy's first. Â After hearing them announce the wait for food was 45min - 1 hour we decide to try another stop. Â As we got into Kahuku we could see Giovanni's and Famous. Â Giovanni's looked too crowded so we opted for Famous. Â I know, it's not the best way to decide where to eat but with Garlic shrimp popping up on menus wherever you go(choke on the drive from kaneohe to kahuku), I figured they must all be similar. Â I've never tried any of the other places. Â Had Famous' shrimp the last tme we stayed at Turtle Bay but too long ago for me to remember if it was good or bad. Â Plus we took it out and ate it a the hotel so it was not in it's best form.
We ordered the garlic shrimp and spicy shrimp. Â It took a litte while but definetily not 45mins. Â It seemed like a lot of people had been here before. Â Most were locals and they all bought their coolers with them. Â
The garlic shrimp was good.  A lot of  that garlic butter mixture on it.  I saw prawns on the Romy's menu but they didn't have that here.  Now I'm curious about that.  I can buy shrimp anywhere but having prawns piqued my interest.  Nonetheless, the shrimp was good.  I liked the butter garlic mixture with the white rice.  You really gotta eat this fresh.  I would think it would be gross and oily if eaten any other time.  I ddn't try the spicy shrimp but my wife really like it.  It was a little spicy so be prepared.
The place is not a restaurant or anything even close. Â It's like a sectioned off area that has picnic tables and tents over everything. Â Their is a sink at the far end for washing hands. Â After doing so I wondered what was actually in the soap dispensers. Â It wasn't soapy at all. Â Everybody in our party was pleased, no complaints. Â Without comparing it to other shrimp trucks out there I wuldn't be able to say I am a fan as I am more willing to try the others first beforecoming back here. Â Not that they were bad but not good enough to pass on the rest.
I guess you can be the judge. Â Happy Eats.
Grungy, dusty, sometimes you can smell the local feral cat's poop, no bathrooms, kinda dirty. Â This place is a total dive....and YET I am giving it 4 freaking stars!!! Â The flavor of the garlic shrimp here is amazing. Â It's a little, just a little, sometimes you can hardly tell it's there, sweet. Â I keep trying to figure out what they use to give it that sweetness, my guess is mirin, but I'm not positive. Â
There are two ladies working the truck, one's the cook, the other works the window and seems to helps cook and prep and clean and stuff. Â Prices aren't bad. Â The last time I was here my mainland friend got the steak and shrimp combo and loved both. Â The first time I was here my friend Aimee and I tried 3 different locations, this truck, Fumi's and one more (it was quite unremarkable obviously, I can't remember the name of it). Â Winner, winner, chicken dinner!!! Â The flavors of this truck won hands down. Â Since then, if anyone ever wants to eat from a shrimp truck, this is the one I introduce them to first.
Since I've been to all the other placed on Shrimp Row... And this was the last one, we stopped here last week to give this place a try.
I read the reviews on this place, and was pretty skeptical at first. To come here and give it a chance.... Or be safe and go to my standard, Giovannis? Oh the options... I mean... Â Kahuku shrimp is a very serious matter. Ask my friends, they know my motto: "Kahuku Shrimp ain't no joke!!" When the time comes to take a trip out to the north shore, all my calorie counting goes out the window and all I can think about is the buttery garlic goodness on a paper plate :)
Anywho, I sucked it up and came here. Had to get the garlic butter plate ($11) just to use as a standard to judge against the other shrimp trucks. Though I wasn't necessarily disappointed by the plate, I honestly do not think it lives up to the other shrimp trucks like Giovanni's or Fumis. The shrimps are smaller and the sauce is a little different. Unlike the other places that uses chopped up garlic, this shrimp truck uses garlic that is almost like a pureed consistency. Different, and I think whether or not you like it really depends on your preferences. I appreciated the bed of cabbage to soak up the buttery sauce though. The plate also comes with a scoop of rice and mac salad.
I think their plates are a little more affordable ($2 cheaper?) and the wait time is practically non-existent compared to the other shrimp trucks. However... as a note, they do not have a bathroom or a sink for you to wash your hands in. Like what??! -1 for this because we all know how messy shrimp can get. Though I'm glad I tried this place to settle my curiosity, I think I'll take my shrimp cravings to the other options on the road that DO have a sink!
The BF and I were in the mood for shrimp, so for lunch on the 4th of July, we decided to drive out to Kahuku to try a new shrimp truck. We usually eat in Haleiwa at Giovanni's and/or Blue Water's, but we were in the mood to drive and try something new.
Yelp came to the rescue and we decided on the Famous Kahuku Shrimp Wagon. It is located by the old sugar mill in Kahuku. There is plenty of parking. There are also several picnic tables to sit on under a tarp so you're not baking in the sun should you want to dine right after your food is done.
There were 2 Asian women cooking and one Asian woman running the front. She spoke fluent Japanese which is great for the tourists we get from Japan. Service was fast and friendly; she was super sweet and was working as fast as she could to get food out and to take orders.
There have a small menu which consists of some of these items:
-grilled steak
-garlic butter shrimp
-tempura shrimp
-hot and spicy shrimp
-coconut shrimp
-mahi mahi
-hot and spicy squid
-steak and shrimp combo
-shrimp and fish combo
-shrimp and squid combo
That's all that I can remember. They also have 'condiments' at the counter. Shoyu, ketchup, A-1, Tobasco, Sriracha, etc.
The single choice plate lunches were $8-$10. The combo plate lunches are $13. Each plate includes one scoop of white rice and one scoop of macaroni salad. Whatever you order, it is nestled on a bed of shredded cabbage. They also have canned sodas (Coke products), Aloha Maid juices, and bottled water. Price was either $1 or $1.50; can't remember, sorry!
The BF and I shared a steak and shrimp combo. It took about 10 minutes before it was ready so at least we knew it was fresh. After eating, I didn't feel that it was worth $13 but hey, it is comparable to the other shrimp trucks so they have to stay competitive.
<a href="http://www.yelp.com/user_local_photos?select=EeXntAgDnvaQDMc9F6gMUQ&userid=IXdmrbRu0veA-OuaP0URwQ">http://www.yelp.com/user…</a>
The macaroni salad was okay. I'm not a fan of mayo but the BF said it wasn't a very 'heavy' macaroni salad and he ate most of it.
The steak was WELLDONE and OVERCOOKED. They DO NOT give you an option of how you want your steak done. That's a downside for the BF and I since he likes his steak red and I like mine pink. The steak was tough and chewy. It was seasoned okay, but then they put the steak next to the shrimp and it soaks into the garlic butter sauce. It then becomes tough, rubbery, overcooked garlic butter steak. Not the yummiest thing to eat...
You get 5 shrimp. The quality of the shrimp was not the same. Some were 'nicer' than others and some were 'split' more than others. The shrimp was overcooked and 2 pieces were borderline 'mushy'. However, the garlic butter sauce that it was cooked in was quite good. It was something VERY different than Giovanni's/Blue Water's and it was sweet... I'm not sure if they add sugar or perhaps honey?? We enjoyed the SAUCE that the shrimp was cooked in. If the shrimp were of better quality and not overcooked it might've tasted better.
Overall, we're glad we gave this place a try. However, we won't be returning. I'd recommend to give them a try at least once and decide for yourself since we all have different tastes and preferences. My only suggestion would be to stay away from the steak and just stick to the shrimp. I did see a plate of mahi mahi and I must say that it looked delicious...
There is a sink with hand sanitizer/soap to the back which is extremely helpful after peeling all those shrimp soaked in butter and garlic.
I still prefer Blue Water's.
CASH ONLY!
I am  not a fan of seafood, so everytime I come over to Kahuku side with the family, I ALWAYS ALWAYS go to Famous for my STEAK WITH GARLIC BUTTER SAUCE ON THE RICE and mac salad of course.
It is not easy to miss, yet is often overlooked due to being so close to their well renown competitor Giovanni's shrimp truck. Â So DON'T MISS IT! Entrance is through the Sugar Mill shopping plaza, a lot of cemented and flat parking, as compared to Giovannis.
Korean owners are very friendly and will gladly give you garlic butter sauce on the side or on your rice :) Â Sink is available in the back for you to wash your hands after! Â
This place is not for the healthy or people on diets. LOL.
Garlic butter shrimp, peeled, all rice. The end.
I like this place. Probably because I love butter and garlic. But this is definitely something you can't eat all the time. Cheaper than Giovanni's and not as busy.
LOL I thought I already wrote a review for this place... meh.. oh well....
Tucked between Giovanni's and Romy's is a smaller, less known Kahuku shrimp truck. Â The prices are at least a couple bucks cheaper than the other trucks at about $11 for a shrimp plate, and they also have other items on the menu like steak, and fried squid. Â The Korean lady who runs the place is pretty friendly, and quick with the service. Â The shrimp are all juicy and tender, cooked to just the right amount. Â Not raw, and not dried out from overcooking. Â The mac salad is pretty basic: macaroni, mayo, salt and pepper. Â That's pretty much all I could taste, but it complemented the flavorful sauces from the shrimp very well.
The Hot & Spicy shrimp was by far my favorite here. Â The sauce and the garlic that the shrimps are cooked in are the best especially when it soaks into the cabbage and rice that accompany your shrimp. Â It is not nearly as spicy as Giovanni's Hot & Spicy, but it still packs a small punch. Â You definitely won't have to worry about getting your money back because it's too spicy, as I've heard used to happen when Giovanni's first started selling their Hot & Spicy, and you won't be unsatisfied with this shrimp plate anyway!

If Hot & Spicy isn't your thing, then you should definitely go for the Butter Garlic shrimp. Â It's just like the Hot & Spicy, but without the spiciness. Â The sauce is buttery with a lot of mashed garlic chunks all over the place.

I seriously wondered how good steak could be from a shrimp truck on the side of the road in Kahuku, but I noticed that almost everyone in front of us in line was either ordering a steak plate, or a steak and shrimp combo plate, and these were not just tourists, but locals, and even regulars to this truck! Â I figured if it was good enough for them, then it's worth a shot, so we split a steak plate along with our own shrimp plates. Â We were not disappointed. Â The seasoning on the steak was simple yet delicious. Â A basic salt and pepper steak with a dash of some other seasonings went really well with the saucy goodness of the shrimp. Â

The next time I find myself in Kahuku I'm definitely stopping by the Famous Kahuku Shrimp Wagon, and will get steak and Hot & Spicy shrimp!
One more thing I noticed is that there while we were there about 3 different tour vans full of Korean tourists stopped by to eat here. Â If you're pulling in, and you see a big Korean tour van parking here don't panic. Â The Korean lady running this shrimp truck seems to have an arrangement worked out with some of the Korean tour guides where they will phone in their groups orders ahead of time, and have all their food ready when they show up. Â We thought that we would have to wait in line behind a group of tourists, but that wasn't a problem at all. Â The orders all seemed to go out without a hitch. Â You'll just want to make sure you have a seat saved.
I dont know why but I love the shrimp here better than Giovanni's! I know Giovanni's has the hype but the one next to it in kahuku has bigger pieces of shrimp, soft and the sauce is way better! The garlic shrimp here is the best! I love that the shrimp is softer than the other shrimp trucks and is easy to deshell. The buttery garlic is so delish!
 The coolest part of the atmosphere is that there is a little family of chickens and chicks that run around the shrimp truck. I believe they live under the truck. So cute!
This is my go to place for shrimp on the North Shore! No shrimp truck can match this trucks spicy shrimp. It's unique, flavorful, and nice and spicy, just the way I like it! They also make a fantastic garlic butter shrimp
When were driving past the other shrimp trucks, I laugh, because they have no idea how awesome this place is. Everyone follows the chefs of the food channel and since they have yet to write or film a review on this place, they have no idea how great it is.
So until someone famous writes or televises a review on this truck, we'll continue to enjoy ourselves here, minus the lines. I like having great food without waiting in long lines anyway.
This place is beach casual, you sit on picnic benches under tarps/canopies. There is a outdoor sink to wash your hands pre/post meal.
You park in a private lot, there is a bathroom on the premises near the convenience store.
Cash only!
I can't believe I forgot to review this place after my trip to Hawaii last September!
We were staying at a beach house pretty close to this random shrimp truck and decided to stop by and give it try after seeing it on the way to the beach.
I couldn't decide what kind of shrimp to pick! They all sounded so good. I ended up picking the coconut shrimp and loved it! It came with a side of rice and macaroni salad which were also very yummy. The shrimp comes with an awesome dipping sauce, mmmmm. I also tried my friends garlic butter shrimp which were also really delicious.
Yea it's a little random dump of a truck with random picnic tables, but it's part of the experience! The tables are in the shade and the service is very friendly just like it should be in Hawaii.
If the truck and picnic table experience bother you that much take your shrimp to go and eat it on the beach which I might do next time I'm visiting this beautiful island. I loved this truck and it's picnic tables, and can't wait to come back! And yes, it's cash only, but once you see the truck you will realize that on your own.
Total dive... and way too much butter or something on the garlic butter shrimp. The shrimp themselves were pretty good , but I didn't particularly care for the buttery-ness.
Rice was hard, too... you'd think as many pounds of rice as they must go through a day, they'd be able to get the rice right!
That said they did a decent job with the coconut shrimp, and the shrimp and steak combo is a nice break from seafood.
Well worth the drive from Aiea or anywhere for that matter. I'm not a local but this place is a must. I always make a trip to this particular shrimp truck every visit to Oahu. It's just too delicious to pass up. Not only do the nice ladies at this truck serve good food, it's not touristy and not crowded so the only wait is for your own food to cook.
My favorite is the classic garlic shrimp plate ($11-12): about 12 shrimp (shells on) on a bed of green cabbage, 2 scoops of rice, and extra melted garlic butter (or should I say buttery garlic?). I usually don't eat butter with food but combined with garlic and shrimp makes this meal irresistible (I still have yet to replicate their garlic butter for myself). Personally, I haven't tried any of the other items on the menu but my dad says the hot squid is good.
Once you receive your delectable meal, I wouldn't advise eating there unless you don't mind unsteady picnic tables. Instead, eat at the beach! A few weeks ago I ate on the beach at Waimea Bay. Great ambiance for a great meal.
Other Tips: Cash only and they close everyday at 6PM
This is my boyfriend's favorite shrimp truck on the North Shore...maybe because he's biased coz it's Korean? Â Anyway, there are always soooo many trucks to choose from and I'm glad he has a favorite because I would never be able to pick just one truck to eat from.
The shrimp here is drowning in their garlic butter sauce and I've seen some people get it smothered all over their rice as well. Â As much as I would looooove to get my plate like that, I think my arteries appreciate me looking out for them. Â Kinda. Â
I got the number 1 plate which is the garlic butter and my friend got a half garlic butter and half spicy shrimp plate which costs $2 more for the combo. Â I thought that was silly since you get the same amount of shrimp and both the garlic butter and the spicy shrimp plates are both $11 each but anyway to make an extra couple bucks I guess. Â For some reason my boyfriend loves the Mahi here and to me, it's really nothing special and it's actually a bit expensive for the amount of fish they give you.
I am a lazy shrimp eater and I really wish that they were de-shelled. Â My friend just swallowed everything shell and all but I'd rather take my time and spit all the shells out. Â
I love eating shrimp when I'm out on this side and although their sauce isn't as garlicky as others, the buttery sauce makes up for it and I leave feeling very full and guilty for eating a stick of butter with my lunch.
I was always a fan of Giovanni's so my friend suggested I try this place because she prefers it to Giovanni's. Â I gave it a try first then hopped on over to Giovanni's across the street. Â I like them both for different reasons.
If you like a lot of butter and a side of mac salad, definitely come here!! Â I wanted to drink the butter sauce from the garlic butter shrimp. Â I'm not big on rice so having mac salad was a nice alternative. Â
If you prefer more garlic flavor, go across the way to Giovanni's. Â Their shrimp are bigger, too.
Bottom line, both places are good. Â I'll go to whichever one I'm craving that day.
If you ask people about the North Shore and shrimp trucks, I bet 98% of the people you ask will tell you that Giovanni's is the best. After all, why not? It's been featured on television and in magazines around the world. When you drive by Giovanni's there's always a crowd of people that cannot wait to get their lips on the garlicky goodness that they create at the stove.
The two percent that remain will tell you about Famous Kauhuku Shrimp. It's this two percent that's really on to something. Famous serves up the same kind of shrimp as their competition only they do it faster, tastier and also with less oil which can be all the difference someone needs. Sometimes Famous is busy and sometimes it's not. I even drove past there one time and saw absolutely no one sitting at the tables.
Some people may see this as a sign that the establishment either has terrible service or terrible food. Let them think that. For I know which one is better and I'm happy that I don't have to wait in line behind twenty or thirty other people to get my garlic shrimp.
If you're in the area be sure to stop by. Maybe you'll convert out of the 98%
Okay, so like we actually didn't go to the "wagon" but to the restaurant that is behind the wagon-- but Yelp wouldn't let me check in there. It let me check into the wagon. Whatever.. I'm assuming the same stuff since it's the same place, just not the sit down one.
Got the garlic shrimp after coming from the north shore side-- passed so many dive looking trucks and then decided to finally stop at this place. It's next to a Subway. Â The owner/manager was really nice and efficient too. My sister ordered the coconut shrimp-- they were HUGE and yummy she said (I'm not a coconut person, so I didn't try). Â The garlic shrimp were also large and in a ton of butter/garlic on top of rice and served with local organic greens. Gosh, the thought of them makes my mouth water...
Every time we go to the north shore we stop for shrimp at a different truck. Â This time it was okay. Â We ordered hot and spicy shrimp and garlic squid which was supposed to be hot too (it wasn't spicy at all).
On the plus side they have a tented shady area with lots of picnic tables and it wasn't crowded, but I probably wouldn't go back to this one.
Welcome to North Shore Shrimp Wagon Row!
Wagon after wagon in a  1/2 mile strip.  If just passing through on a drive around the island, it's hard to know which wagon is better than the other. Â
Do crowds mean one particular wagon is great, while nobody at another wagon means it is the pits? Â Or does that just mean that the masses stopped at the first one on the road without realizing there would be more wagons to come?
The first theory might well be the better theory.
JP needed food quickly after a draining experience at the LDS Laie Temple Visitor Center (I warned him not to go in there!) , so the crowds at Giovanni's Shrimp wagon made us choose the Kakuku wagon that was a few feet further down Kamehameha Highway, since nobody was there.
We each ordered the shrimp and squid combo ($13) and sat at a picnic table. Â Chickens strutted around as a young tiger-striped tomcat lolled indifferently in the nearby weeds.
Our meals were ready in about fifteen minutes. Â The combo plate consisted of unshelled jumbo shrimp, pieces of squid in assorted sizes and shapes, rice and macaroni salad. Â
The rice and macaroni salad were decent. Â The shrimp and squid were sitting in this thickish puddle of garlic paste and butter that overflowed onto the rice and salad. Â You know how calamari gets rubbery if cooked too long? Â This calamari was like eating surgical tubing! Â And all that garlic and butter. Â I find the only word to describe their seafood is well, disgusting. Â Sorry, but it is true!
JP loves garlic (even on scrambled eggs) but said that this was too much. Â I was stunned to hear that! Â So we set out to find some ice cream to neutralize the garlic.
Did some research before visiting Kahuku for shrimp, as I heard that there are lots of "tourst trap" shrimp wagons. Â When I made it to Shrimp Wagon we were happy to see this place looked very local.
Oh the shrimp....so succulant and so buttery. Â Seriously, did she put a stick of butter in each dish? Â But it's so good!!
The shrimp was cooked just right, with lots and lots of butter. Â We had Garlic Butter and Hot&Spicey. Â They were both very, very good.
