We went out to The Willows restaurant on a Sunday night while I was in Hawaii. The seating atmosphere is pretty nice. It’s in a hut-like setting with indoor ponds and waterfall waterscape. It was nice at night because you feel like you are inside a gazebo. On offer was a Hawaiian buffet. It’s hard to describe all the different things to someone who has never tasted the local food before. All I can say was that it was so Ono. I stuffed myself silly until my stomach couldn’t take anymore. My favorite is laulau which is taro spinach with pork in the center. It is wrapped in a Ti leaf and steamed a long time until it is soft.
The plate below has laulau, chicken long rice, poi, seasoned bean sprouts, watercress salad, lomi salmon, tako poke, poke, mahi mahi, haupia and kalua pig. I also has a mango smoothy. This was just a selection from the buffet. There was also a dessert spread, prime rib, suckling pig, and a number of other local dishes that I can’t remember them all.
There is my mom below. She’s got a full plate too.
