Our first night in Honolulu was late and choices were limited. We made a b-line to the nearest ABC Store and inhaled the first of many macadamia nut snack packs.
Eventually we were lured into one of the dirty little secrets of Waikiki - Late night McDonald's!
I hesitate to mention our whole order (er, 20 piece nuggets for $4.99, how could I say no despite all the warnings about its contents), but the best part was saimin:
Now we liked the Cheeseburger place so much we returned for dinner:
ROYAL ALI’I CHEESEBURGER™ (say it with me...AH-LEE-EE)-that's what is says on the menu. Sold!
I made Murray order onion rings with his burger so we could share. I think there was a theme on our trip. Making him order something different so I could have some!! Tee hee. Oh of course I shared with him too...
Another late night and we found no choice but the enormous and ever-popular Cheesecake Factory. Funny I've been a few times, but never had room for cheesecake. Why? Because everything here is gigantic! We ordered side salads and thought they gave us entree size. No, the massive portion WAS the side size! And the buffalo blasts (chicken, cheese and buffalo sauce all stuffed in a spiced wrapper and deep fried!) in all their giant glory were tasty and more than plenty for two. The photos do not do their size justice:
We bid our final adieu with one more burger joint - Teddy's Bigger Burgers.
It's fast food but the staff were super nice and patient (there were too many choices to customize your burgers with). Too be honest it was all a blur and I don't even remember what we ordered!
But I made Murray get fries, so I could order the onion rings.
Mahalo mes amies, I hope you enjoyed the Honolulu Food Porn Tour!
kisses,
mh
C'est tres bon! We must go on an eating tour together!
