I’ll be describing our lovely Christmas in Hawaii later, once I get some photos uploaded.\u00a0 But I did want to talk about one of the best meals we had while we were there, at Alan Wong’s.\u00a0 He does a lovely East-West Hawaii-style cuisine, and it was one of the best meals we’ve ever had.\u00a0 Thanks to the app, Evernote Food, there are some nice photos of some of our dishes:<\/p>\n

To the left is an appetizer called “Poki-Pines”–a riff off both the animal (porcupine) and the traditional Hawaiian dish, poke, made up of raw tuna and spices.\u00a0 To the right is an appetizer called Korean “chicken salad” made of cubes of chicken done Asian style (with skin and cut directly off the bone) accompanied by kimchee.<\/p>\n

For the main dishes, to the left is “tilapia jun,” done in the traditional Korean style with egg batter, to the right is short ribs with gingered shrimp, and at the bottom is steamed shrimp and clams with penne in a chili black bean sauce.<\/p>\n

We ordered dessert as well, but I have no beautiful photos of the desserts because we ate them before I remembered to take pictures!\u00a0 Every dish was delicious, but my personal favorites were the poki-pines and the penne.\u00a0 Reasonable minds can differ, however.<\/p>\n
