View of Diamond Head from Shorebird Restaurant & Bar at Outrigger Waikiki Reef Hotel.

Shore Bird has been around since 1979
and is best known for their "grill-your-own-dinner" concept by the beach.
So you get to enjoy all the fun of grilling while they take care of all the prep and clean-up for you.

Over the past years, many famous celebrities has stopped by for a visit.

Harbor Restaurant at Pier 38 Honolulu (by Nicos). Fresh Ahi Tuna Melt Sandwich. Delicious and fresh seafood in relax atmosphere.

Brasa Grilled Ahi Tuna Melt with Waffle fries (and Maui onion dip; not shown)- $20.

With the frequency of me writing about Harbor Restaurant at Pier 38, one might conclude
I am sponsored by the restaurant-- I am NOT (though if you are reading this Harbor 38, I don't mind). ;)

I just really like their food.

Breakfast Buffet at Duke's Waikiki (Honolulu, Hawaii).

Affordable breakfast buffet at Duke's Waikiki Honolulu Hawaii (Oahu). Under $20 to get your fill!

I think nothing says you are in Hawaii more than sipping on a drink
while looking out to the Pacific Ocean under grass huts.

Ok, there's no grass huts here but at Duke's Waikiki, that's probably the closest you will get to that imagery.

To top it off, a breakfast buffet is a great way to jump start your day, especially when it cost less than $20.

Was it worth it you ask?

Canton Seafood Restaurant Dinner Review (Honolulu, HI).

8/7/2017

Canton Seafood Restaurant Honolulu Hawaii (signage and fresh lobster).

We’ve passed by this restaurant numerous times for many years now and didn’t really give it a second thought. From the exterior, it appears quite plain. Advertisements covering their windows showed exceptionally low prices for Chicken and Lobster. We were a bit hesitant as it’s situated right next to a gentlemen’s club... but am glad we finally gave the restaurant a try.

Turtle Bay Resort North Shore Honolulu (Hotel Entrance). Waterfront views.

Stunning water views!

Turtle Bay Resort has a special place in our hearts.
As locals, we love it for stay-cations and have memories from childhood.

It's a wonderful getaway from the main part of the city where you can actually slow down and relax
while looking out at their spectacular views.

Harbor Restaurant at Pier 38 Honolulu (Mother's Day Brunch 2017), Ahi Poke, Granola and Fruits.

Fresh Ahi Poke (Shoyu & Spicy Tuna) & Granola and Fruits.

Sunday Brunch is one of my favorite things.
Nothing beats brunch with your favorite people and a Mimosa or two.

We visited Harbor Restaurant at Pier 38 for the 3rd time in 3 months
(for me anyway; a handful of times for my other half).
That's how much we enjoy this restaurant.

This visit, we tried out their Mother's Day Brunch to see their interpretation of brunch in paradise.
