waikiki

Before meeting up with friend Greg for lunch I also checked out the Royal Hawaiian Shopping Center

When I worked in Waikiki, this shopping center was so “dark”

It is now called Royal Hawaiian Center and is so pretty

Loved the huge wooden chairs

and huge ceramic pots  

They now have a food court

I also snuck a peek at the Royal Hawaiian Hotel

Lunch was at Ginza Bairin, it’s fast enough for Greg’s lunch break AND they still give kamaʻaina (local) discount

The katsu is always delicious and the restaurant is always busy    

It was nice catching up, thanks for today Greg!
