After all the Thanksgiving rich food, Mike and I were looking for lighter fare. We stopped by Haleiwa Joe's after Christmas shopping, just off of the Kahekili highway turn mauka onto Haiku. (46-336 Haiku, Kaneohe, HI 96744)
We walked in the garden and then enjoyed a light supper. Mike and I shared a buttery, cheesy Garlic Bread with whole roasted garlic cloves tucked into the bread.(YUM!) Mike had the Fish Monger bowl (lots of fish in the soup, tasty and savory) and I had the Paradise Salad.(crunchy sweet walnuts, mandarin orange and balanced vinegarette with fresh greens) These dishes were ono and satisfied our appetite.
The Mai Tai beverage I had was called Clark's Mai Tai prepared by Clark. The presentation was colorful and looked like a rainbow. This beverage was satiny smooth. The sweet and sour were complimentary. I believe this Mai Tai beverage and the experience was "Mai Tai-Roa Ae."(out of this world-the best)" Juan, our server, was friendly and charming, and very in tune with pleasing his customers and helpful with information on any food or beverage choices. Ask for Juan if you go to Haleiwa Joe's.(give Juan our best wishes) We don't know the exact proportions but the ingredients of the Mai Tai beverage included pineapple juice, orange juice, guava juice, grenadine, Myers light and dark rum and a light float of 151. Go to Haleiwa Joe's and enjoy!
