Helena's Hawaiian Food - Honolulu

Near Kailua beach is the Lanikai Pillbox Hike - it starts with a really scary steep incline (which unfortunately was super muddy after a rainy day the day before), but it gets better after that. The views are stunning: 

However, the weather can change quickly (this was taken about 30 minutes later) - we had to abandon the hike when we saw the oncoming storm. 
 

We watched a few food vloggers on Youtube to determine the best places to eat in Oahu - and this was consistently on their lists for the best Hawaiian food experience. 


We decided to share Menu D with a few people since it has everything
Luau Squid, Pipikaula shortribs, Lomi Salmon and Kalua Pig with rice and a bit of poi 
The shortribs and pig were good, the salmon was fantastic, the squid was interesting and poi in a more concentrated dish is really distinctive (and strange). I felt like the flavours were a bit muted compared to the experience we had at Koko Head.
