Loved my round of golf at Cascata.  Beautiful course, great caddy and friendly staff.
This is a Las Vegas golf experience that should not be missed.

GATED ENTRANCE TO CASCATA

CASCATA MEANS "WATERFALL" BUT THE FALLS WERE DRY ON THIS DAY

Another great stay at the Aria Sky Suites.  Love this place and especially the private back entrance that allows you to come and go without walking through the casino.  Also love that you never have to stand in line at the front desk.  You check in with your phone and your phone becomes the key for elevator and room.  The app keeps track of your spending too.

I love the Cascata Golf Club in Nevada and The Restaurant at Cascata.  Always good food and service in a relaxed environment.  My only complaint is that I did not have time after our round to return and enjoy some more food and drinks.  Started my round in the restaurant and enjoyed a little Birdie Juice (champagne) and a Breakfast Burrito low carb style.  I asked the waiter for the Breakfast Burrito with no Tortilla and Hash Browns.  He said "of course" and my Burrito Bowl arrived in minutes.  It was absolutely delicious.  Loved it!

HAWAIIAN AIRLINES - HONOLULU TO LAS VEGAS

FIRST CLASS SERVICE

Flying to Las Vegas on Hawaiian Airlines is very comfortable in First Class.  The lie down seats are nice but the service just does not compare to other international airlines.  Breakfast was a bit of question mark with Mushrooms, Olive Tempanade and Chickpea Cake?

I love enjoying a glass of wine and some Poke prior to a flight.  The Makai Plantation at the Honolulu airport does a good job with pretty fast service and fresh Poke.

CARNE ASADA STREET TACOS

DINNER AT HOME

Craving some Mexican Street Tacos so I grilled some marinated steak and made these Carne Asada Tacos.  Reminded me of being in Tijuana at a street Taco stand.  Only thing missing was a cold beer.

Love my homemade Drew Burgers and this one with Avocado protein style was delicious.  All the great flavors of a burger without the carbs.

Our beloved Meg's Drive Inn on Waiakamilo Road closed and within days, 3 Star Gourmet moved in cooking up some pretty good food.  I tried the Blackened Ahi Salad and it was fresh and so delicious.  Will be trying lots more of the menu in the coming months.
UPDATE:  Back again and tried the Grilled Chicken Salad.  Once again delicious.

Love when I am able to get out to Hoakalei Country Club for lunch and a round of golf.  The food is great and the golf course is the best on Oahu.  This day was absolutely picture perfect with some beautiful views and great friends.
