TROPICAL FOOD CHRONICLES – DAY SIX

Today, I am going to skip right ahead to dinner as breakfast and lunch meals were not exciting and the day was pretty ordinary.  For dinner we went to Keoki’s Tropical Paradise at Poipu Village Shopping Mall.  Keoki’s interior is true to its name.  It is truly a Tropical Paradise and as in most Hawaiian Restaurants, the walls are open to the surrounding outdoor area, which included Palm Trees and a Lagoon.  We were seated nearest to the outdoor area which made the   ambience very nice for dinner.   In addition, on weekend evenings there is entertainment, Hawaiian Style;  we enjoyed the music while we ate.

Since we are both light eaters we opted for the Sea & Land Pupu Platters.  The Sea Platter consisted of Scallops, Shrimp and Crab Cakes and the Land Platter contained Beef Teriyaki Skewers, Egg Rolls, Pork Ribs on Mashed Potatoes with Skinny Onion Rings.  The sauces and marinades were excellent and we entirely enjoyed our choices.  Our beverages were Lite Beer for Ev and a Tropical Fruit Cocktail for myself.

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

For dessert we just had to try their famous Hula Pie.  The Hula Pie is a large portion and was enough for the two of us.  It was built on a chocolate cookies crust and contained Vanilla Ice Cream shot through with Coffee and was topped with Hot Fudge  Sauce, Macadamia Nuts and Whipped Cream.  The Hula Pie was a thoroughly satisfying ending to a delicious meal.
