Saturday

November 12th:





It's College Football today . . .












Here is one of our guys watching football. . .











Here's the other one.











We have leftovers for lunch and we make a sizable decrease the number of our boxes









You didn't think we ate all that food every night, did you?







Dinner this evening is at the Four Seasons Resort

At sunset there's the customary blowing of the conch and a guy who runs around in a loincloth to light the torches








This is the final day of Restaurant Week and we dine at DUO












They have an impressive all-you-can-eat Raw Seafood Bar. Crab, shrimp, prawns, poke, and several types of oysters are piled high along this magnificent display.










Seating is indoors, outdoors, we sat someplace in the middle.







The DUO Prix-Fixe menu:

Choice of: DUO Double Chop Salad (Blue Cheese, Spicy Pecans, Pineapple, Bacon bits, Papaya Seed Dressing) or Caramelized Maui Onion Soup with three cheese crust





Entree: Braised Beef Short Rib, Sir Fried Vegetables, Potato Puree or Pan Seared Catch of the Day Sautéed Kale, Fingerling Potato, Mushroom Hash, Red Thai Curry Sauce



Choice of: Island Trifle, layers of Coconut & Guava Custards, sponge cake & Pineapple flambéed in rum or Waialua Estate Crème Brulee with grapefruit sorbet

The service was the best we've had on the island and the food was delicious.

As a bonus we received this piled-high, apple-flavored cotton candy to our table. It was unexpected and fun!






We stayed up until 8pm!




P.S. Maria don't forget about our 1pm scheduled nap!
