Smoked Meat at Barbecue Inn, Lihue, Kaua’i

That night we went to Larry & Eleanor’s house in Kalaheo for pupus. Larry showed us his mountain apple tree and we tasted the fruit from it - kind of sweet, with a kind of bitter skin and was much smaller than a normal apple. Eleanor and Larry had prepared and purchased a ton of pupus. Everything was so good, I wanted to eat a ton, but I also wanted to save room for the dinner I knew we were having later on at one of our favorite restaurants, La Playita Azul.

We dropped off Dallas’ dad, George, and his sister Caroline at Barbecue Inn in Lihue for a night out with George’s cronies. Then Dallas and Kathy, his mom, and I went over for mexican seafood in Kapa’a at La Playita Azul. This was a place we fell in love with last year and HAD to go back to.

Later on, back at Barbecue Inn, George’s friends peer pressured me into eating some smoked meat of some sort.. I think they said it was wild pig? I don’t know. It actually wasn’t as bad as it looks. It’s the pride of Kaua’i, I’m told.
