Keoke’s Paradise, Poipu, Kaua’i

After arriving in Lihue, we dumped our bags off at the condo, met up with Dallas’ sister and friends who arrived a bit earlier than us, went to Big Save to grab some beer and other things quick, then went to Keoki’s Paradise. It was our first stop off last time we were on Kaua’i too. A great restaurant for some really good, fresh seafood and a few more umbrella’d mai tais.

John, Susan, Dallas and I had dinner at Keoki’s while Caroline, Dallas’ sister, and her friends Tammy and Carrie just stayed Keoki’s bar for drinks. Our table split some ahi sashimi, panko crusted scallops with wasabi butter sauce, and some mushu pork (Kalua pig, cabbage, and plum sauce with mushu wrappers) for pupus. For an entree I had opah (a white, moist Hawaiian moon fish) saute’ed with citrus, shoyu and sesame butter sauce with garlic smashed potatoes. It was fantastic and a great way to relax and end a really long travel day.
