Greetings from sunny Hawaii! Last night’s dinner came from Highway Inn, a great place featured on one of our favorite research sources, Diners, Drive Ins and Dives.
We inadvertenly (but luckily) had exactly the food featured in the video: Lau Lau Chicken, Poi, Lomi Salmon, Pipikaula (which is a dried beef dish) and Haupia (coconut custard). Hubs opted for the Kalua Pig combo instead. We shared the Kalua Pork and Sweet Potato quesadilla because I had to have it. It was amazing and affordable. We had two combo plates, soft drinks and shared an appetizer for around $35 with tip (20%).
Want to know my favorite part? How delighted my date was with the find! Hawaii Inn is not going to win any awards for decor but they have great service, a friendly staff and fresh, delicious food at very reasonable prices. If we were locals, this is a place we would visit often. Their poke bar also looked amazing.
More to come from sunny Hawaii! Are there any places here on Oahu you’d like us to check out?
