Man, this ended up as one heck of a threadjack! Sorry 'bout that AB. 🤦
But back on topic - we went to a yakiniku place last night so ended up grillin' anyway. We shared multiple double orders but this is what I remember:
Gyu-Kaku salad
Tofu Salad
Garlic Butter Spinach
Broccoli & Cheese
White rice (...of course!)
Lobster nuggets
Yaki Shabu (...thinly sliced meat...)
Bistro Hanger Steak
Pork Belly
Filet Mignon
Basil Chicken
And two more other meats but can't recall what they were.
No dessert.
To say the least, we all left pretty stuffed.
The reception was pretty big too - 500+ with guests from the Neighbor Islands, Mainland and American Samoa. My buddy from AS brought in maile leis and two cases of Vailima beer...one for him, one for us 🍺 A special night indeed.
