ALA MOANA FOOD COURT
SENOR PEPE' FRESH
MEXICAN GRILLE AND
SBARRO ITALIAN
Pleased that the wife wanted tacos while shopping at the Ala Moana Shopping Center. We went to the Makai Market Food Court where you can find all of Hawaii's ethnic foods. There is Japanese, Chinese, Korean, Thai, Philippines, Vietnamese, Hawaiian, Italian, Mexican, American restaurants plus a steak house, sandwich shop, panini shop and more. I like Señor Pepe Fresh Mexican Grille. Hawaii really doesn't have any good Mexican joints so Señor Pepe shines. I always order tacos. Fish, Shredded Beef and the Street Tacos are my favorites here. Two tacos and your choice of three side dishes runs around $9. I went for the Carne Asada (steak) Street Style Tacos. Double corn tortillas filed with seasoned and grilled steak. Topped with onions and cilantro. Pretty simple but so good. I had the Chipotle Cole Slaw, Jicama and Cucumber Salad and beans as sides. My wife enjoyed one Fish Taco and a Carne Asada Taco with beans, rice and a fresh vegetable salad with garbanzo beans. The Boss went for the Sbarro Pizza. She chose the thick crust because it looked so good on the counter. You can get a large slice of pizza and choice of a side and drink for around $8 at Sbarro.

MERRIMANS MARKET CAFE
WAIKALOA VILLAGE
BIG ISLAND OF HAWAII
I was really hungry when we landed on the Big Island. We stopped at the Kings Shops which is right across the street from the Hilton Waikoloa. There were very few options to eat at so we hit Merrimans because the hostess out front had a nice smile. We chose to eat inside and were quickly seated by friendly staff. We decided to order a pizza and fish tacos and split them. The pizza was terrible. I have had better pizza out of a frozen box. The little pizza was around $10. We could not split the Fish Taco because there was only one on the plate for $15. Really disappointed with this place.
