Continuing my culinary journey in Honolulu β hereβs the latest round of reviews! Miro Kaimuki π½οΈ ππππ Fine dining β ~$100+/person Beautifully plated dishes π« β great vibe for special occasions Flavors were good but not mind-blowing Aburiya Ibushi π’ πππππ Cozy Japanese yakitori spot β full of warmth and sizzle! π₯ Must-tries: Oxtail porridge (so comforting!), tender tongue, short rib, beef flank Minor flaw: Some skewers slightly charred, but overall delicious! Sushi Sho π£ ππππ Omakase: $350/person (incl. tip) β not better than Bay Area options π¬ Bento: $40 β decent value for a quick sushi fix Wonβt repeat for omakase β bento is the move! Han no Daidokoro π₯© πππππ My go-to Wagyu spot! π β exceptional quality (but heavy β eat with kimchi!) Soups are great too π² Pro tip: Skip the set menu β order Γ la carte! Izakaya Uosan π πππ Viral spot β uni rice was just okay (tiny portion π’) Steamed egg + grilled oysters were fine Wagyu sushi inferior to Han no Daidokoro Not worth $100+/person β wonβt return ZIGU π πππ Japanese fusion β spicy soba & sukiyaki soba were creative but salty π§ Apps: Agedashi tofu + ahi cutlet β average Halekulani Bakery π₯₯ πππππ Best bakery on Oahu! β coconut cake is light, not too sweet π° Kona Coffee Purveyors | b patisserie β πππππ Slightly acidic coffee + sweet Kouign-amann pastry = perfect match! π₯ #OahuEats #HonoluluFood #FineDining #Wagyu #FoodReview #HawaiiFoodie πΊπΈ
