| JJ FRENCH BAKERY AND BISTRO
HONOLULU, HAWAII
I love JJ's and tonights dinner was a good reason why. We had a great meal, great service and just a good time in a local neighborhood restaurant that just does it right. One of our servers was the same girl that waited on us four years ago when she was only 15. Now she is a student at the University of San Francisco and back in town to waitress during spring break. You still bring your own bottle of wine and enjoy a no corkage fee plus great food. We all ordered the four course meal ($24.95). We had a coupon that we purchased that gave us 50% off our meal. This made this dinner one of the best deals in Hawaii. The soup was a crab and corn chowder. Lots of crab and flavor of corn. Kind of thin but very good starter. Our appetizers were Escargot incrusted in bread which Keli consumed in about two seconds. No one at the table got a taste of this dish because Keli loved it so much. I never saw the escargot, but Keli said their were six. I enjoyed the Lobster Avocado. Lobster on a bed of french bread with Avocado and a little too much mayo. Shirley had the Laotian Rock n' Roll which is a bit curry flavored veggies served with a nice salad. My entree was the Opakapaka with Fettuccine. Perfectly cooked piece of fish served with the best pasta and spicy sauce. I love this dish. One of my favorite dishes in Hawaii. Keli enjoyed the Baked Salmon and ate all of it. How that for a 9 year old eating a whole dish of salmon. I tried it and it was delicious. Shirley enjoyed the clams with black squid ink linguine. Light and flavorful. She finished the entire plate and loved it. Dessert was awesome. Keli had her favorite chocolate pyramid and I had the chocolate raspberry cake. Shirley had the double macaroon cake which was totally awesome. chocolate mousse with macaroon and a thick chocolate topping. This was fantastic.

I'm not very fond of escargots. Nevertheless, the chocolate macarons look delicious ! $24.95 is a reasonable price for a four course meal.
