KCC Farmer's Market at Diamond Head

We hiked up the hill this past weekend to the Kapiolani Community College parking lot where they hold the KCC Farmer's Market every Saturday morning- Was a drizzly and overcast morning but somehow really fit the vibe- the overhanging clouds keeping everyone cool as they perused the stalls and booths....
the clouds make a picturesque backdrop for the festivities....
There was a Breakfast stall selling tasty breakfast type meals like pancakes, french toast and the Hash Fried Rice plate which we got, but I just couldn't resist the rib-eye steak plate from Hawaiian Style Kitchen and HAD to grab it!
YEPPP that's a HEAVY meal for breakfast and I surely paid for it later, but was so tasty! There were not any areas assigned for dining, so like everyone else, we just plunked down on a random curb and chowed down!
The sun came out a bit later (as did the crowds, which doubled as the morning went on with locals and tourists alike) and we did some window shopping before leaving for home!
So great to see a community coming together for events like this every week!
Now that I have Saturday mornings off, I'll be sure to be visiting more!

New Lunch Haunt

So our "go-to" place for lunch lately has been Doraku on Kapiolani- such relaxing atmosphere, great food- and for reasonable prices as well! 

Lots to choose from from their menu, but the Wagyu Rib-eye Steak has GOT to be the top of the list!
 
We usually get there about 12 and the crowd is pretty light- perfect for just kicking back and enjoying the food and place!
