A Hawaiin culinary adventure...

Spicy Tuna Nachos from Quatro
Erin and I agree on one thing in particular:  travel is as much about new experiences and relaxation as it is about new food adventures.  And there were a couple great ones! 

Thanks to Bree W., we heard about the little Kihei strip-mall restaurant called Quatro, which was- get this- Latin and Asian fusion (sounds awful!).  But it wasn't.  Wasn't at all.  In the midst of the Ruby puke-fest, Erin, Bella and I escaped for a great meal.   We liked it so much that we went the night before we left as well.  
Crab cakes



Seared Ahi



Pupu Steak

Our 2nd favorite restaurant was in Lahaina, a place that Sven and I absolutely loved the last time we came to Maui: the little ocean-front diner called Honu, which had a really intense Lavendar and White Cheese Pizza.  But best of all: Ahi Bruschetta on flax toast with edamame puree, tomaatoes and 20 year old Balsamic.  Somehow I managed to not get any good photos of the food, but check out the view!  


My favorite breakfast and lunch:  whichever Safeway or Foodland Poke is fresh!  LOVE it!
