Day 4
This is one of the oldest restaurants in Hawaii. It was also super packed when we got to the restaurant and we couldn’t even find parking (even around the residential parking). We lined up for maybe ~30 min before getting a seat. Most of the people in the line up were tourists, but there was a couple from the local area too.
We wanted to order everything here, because every dish was foreign! They had all the famous Hawaiian dishes that you usually eat at a luau.
Boiled Butterfish Collar with Watercress
Lomi salmon — fresh tomato and salmon salad
Fried Ahi
Pipikaula style short ribs
Kalua pig
Poi — Hawaiian word for the primary Polynesian staple food made from the underground plant stem or corm of the taro plant
2 scoops of rice
Haupia — traditional coconut milk-based Hawaiian dessert
Hawaiian sea salt
