L&L Hawaiian Barbecue is a success story that started with a plate lunch in Waimānalo.
Decades later, the drive-in has been parlayed into 235 stores across America.
The success story is Eddie Flores Jr.’s family.
It's a Filipino-Chinese immigrant story tied to a tough work ethic, an entrepreneurial spirit, and if you know Eddie, a sense of humor.
Eddie Flores Jr., will be at Barnes & Noble in Ala Moana Center in Honolulu signing his book, “Franchising The American Dream,” this Saturday.
