We were a little early for the UH volleyball game so we stopped by Beer Lab for a drink…read more It was packed on a Saturday evening at 6:00pm, full of UH fans wearing green! I love it! They might have been there to watch the basketball game or early volleyball fans. The ordering process was new to me. You scan a QR code and order your food and drinks and pay using either your credit card or Apple Pay. It kinda threw me off because you include your tip BEFORE you are even served! I thought tip was based on service, but this place asks for tip before you even interact with your server. I guess this is the 'new' way? IDK. We ordered cilantro lime wings, and 4 drinks. It came out to $68, including tip of 15%. Kinda high but the food and drinks came out pretty quick. I would return if we need to kill time before a UH game. Nonetheless, it is a very popular place and we spent a nice hour there.

Saturday Night @ Leahi Brewing Company!…read more Food/Drinks: 5/5 Service: 5/5 Ambiance: 5+/5 Second time here at Leahi Brewing and I just love this place. They gave me a tour of something they're brewing and it smelled amazing. Menu remained the same as last time and my favorite is still the Persimmon. Saturday at around 4/4:30pm is a perfect time. There's free unofficial entertainment done well by the Star of Honolulu who welcome their guests with a small hula performance prior to boarding. This can be seen from the bar. My family and I brought food but this time I also ordered food from the Spaghetti Factory and it was delivered directly to me at Leahi Brewing. I enjoyed my beer and pasta. I even made myself my own beer affogato with the vanilla ice cream that came with my meal. Lol I still love this place so much and I look forward to stopping in whenever I get the chance. I love chatting with Mary and her staff because they are all so welcoming and friendly!

They offer French Bubbles, and wines from France, Napa, Sonoma, a few coastal areas nearby, Oregon, Washington, I believe I saw a couple of southern CA regional wines, and maybe a couple from Australia, Spain... maybe a Malbec. I would need more time, I was on a quick break to grab champagne for a colleague who needed to take some for a work event. They have a refrigerator so if you do need something chilled, there is a selection to choose from, otherwise plan ahead. Prices are very fair! The options are great as well. I much rather prefer a nice wine shop over the shelves at Safeway (sorry Safeway.....) They also have nice options for whisky, cognac, soju, and a couple of tequila items. They sell wine bags so you can gift something. They had a few accessories too. Friendly service offering any needed assistance. They keep the door locked so just knock and they let you in/out.

Lots of different wines that I haven't seen sold anywhere else on island. This is probably a good spot for a true wine connoisseur. We were looking for some Spanish Tempranillo wine, however, there was none available. We decided to purchase a 10 year aged port wine from Portugal. Lady working was nice and helpful. Happy Drinking!

Adult beverages on Ward Avenue in Honolulu, Hawaii…read more.. If you are looking for fancier adult beverages for gifts (or for yourself), you might want to check out POSH. The main store is in Waikiki while this one is across the street from Ohana Hale Marketplace. The name of the place is intriguing. Since we were in the area, my friend, Lisa, and I took a look. This is not really a convenience store, but a higher end liquor shop. They also had some bags of cookies and instant ramen - if you have the munchies - and vodka leis... Haha! For a special celebration! Just for fun, I asked the nicely dressed gentleman if he had any Hello Kitty varieties. Note: Longs and Foodland do not carry this brand. I have seen Hello Kitty sake, merlot, chardonnay, etc. elsewhere... He did! We followed him to the refrigerated section - and there she was! It was a pink Sparkling Wine - so cute! We had to get it! The gentleman showed us the Strawberry and Yogurt sochu, but we got the peach flavor. He said that he would get more Hello Kitty tomorrow... The next day, I went to see if he got more Hello Kitty wine... YES! He said, "Same place." There were TWO bottles in the refrigerator! Wow! He is awesome for getting it from the warehouse! Whoa! He remembered! I was impressed! I also decided to get the strawberry and yogurt flavored soju that he recommended because we have a dinner coming up. Hee hee! I told him that this is my new favorite store. He laughed and said that people don't know about them even though they've been around for about four years! Well... We can do something about that, right???

I always look forward to Friday and Saturday nights, not bc of the clubbing hots spots and Ginza,…read morebut bc of the delicious bacon-wrapped hot dogs sold outside of Ginza. Look for the red umbrella! http://www.yelp.com/biz_photos/fCwChMipti7FaUREh4_4LQ?select=d1F2gULQpi4XhAgCyIvQuQ These dogs are cooked to sizzling juicy perfection, and dressed with your choice of condiments. Let the Hot Dog King know how much of which sauces you fancy. Choose from ketchup, mustard, garlic mayo, and Srirracha. Plus, add your own relish at the pseudo relish station: regular pickle relish, jalapeño relish, onions, and a mixed pickle-onion relish. For $5 a dog, how in the heck could you go wrong?! And bacon-wrapped?! Hah, even better. My perfect combo is the bacon-wrapped with mustard, garlic mayo, and Srirracha, topped with a perfectly portioned mini-mound of jalapeños and mixed relish. Trust. It's a match made in Heaven! Which is why I can't just have one; two is the minimum, but I've eaten 3 or 4 in one sitting several times before. (I hope this supposed tapeworm living in me never dies!) http://www.yelp.com/biz_photos/fCwChMipti7FaUREh4_4LQ?userid=U-7EVbeRf1wlSZfHW_gujQ I have yet to try the other two hot dog options on the menu (Beef Hot Dog and Teri Dog). http://www.yelp.com/biz_photos/fCwChMipti7FaUREh4_4LQ?select=n8YJoHKpYeQjlqq75EsFiQ They look and sound amazing, but I can't break away from the sinfully delicious bacon-wrapped hot dogs! However, in the extreme case of a bacon shortage, I will be forced to try a different dog. The Teri Dog sounds interesting. And for $6, it may be worth a try. I'm cool with regular beef though, with all the right fixings of course. ;) I love that garlic mayo. Yum. FYI - (This is important.) The hot dog guy told me that he only sets up outside Ginza (or various spots on Kona Street near Ginza) on Fridays and Saturdays when the club is hot. So he sets up around midnight or 1am, sometimes a bit later, to catch all the continuing partiers that keep it going til 4am and then some. He stays until after the club closes, which is PERFECT for hungry drunkards looking for some late night grub. Cash only. Yelp 365 - #162/365
