Another one of those days when you look around and say "lucky we live Hawaii". 80 degrees and sunny on a January day in paradise. We teed off at sunrise with the sun coming through the huge Norfolk Pines in Mililani. Simply blessed to enjoy this great day in Hawaii with friends. After a nice round of golf we all headed to Alonzo's Restaurant at the Mililani Golf Club. This place was packed when we arrived before 7:00 am and when we finished around noon. Seems this is not your normal golf course restaurant, but a local destination for breakfast, lunch and dinner. The place is kind of a dump with cheap plastic chairs, boxes in all corners, beverage coolers, ice cream cooler and a cart for a waitress station. There were only two waitresses during our visit and at times things got very slow. Took a long time to pay our tab. All that aside, the food is good here and that is what you pay for. Our group ordered the Warrior Pupu Platter ($78). This platter served five people but we ordered an extra plate of Alonzo's Hawaiian Beef Steak ($17.99) just to be safe. Everyone seemed to love the Lechon Kawali. This is a filipino dish with onions, tomatoes and roasted pork belly served with their special sauce. I liked the dish because it had some vegetables unlike everything else on the platter. For dessert we ordered the Waffle Delight ($9.49). The waffle was excellent. We added a little maple syrup to the waffle and it was even better.
