Zippy's Chili Rice Dupe
If you've ever been to Hawaii, there is a very good chance someone has told you to go to Zippy’s. Now, my first visit to Hawaii was back in 2019, and one of the very first stops we made was Zippy’s. It's a fast-casual Hawaiian institution known for hearty lunch plates and island-style comfort-food classics.
