Back to Moku Kitchen in Kakaako for some lunch with the family.  This was my second visit to what is becoming quite the meeting place in Honolulu.  Once again the staff was friendly but this time I left somewhat unsatisfied.  We started with the Ginger Ahi Shoyu Poke ($14) which was delicious.  The Ahi was fresh and the light taste of Ginger came through perfectly.  The Taro Chips were also fresh and my Daughter loved scooping up the Ahi with the Chips.  The Roasted Squash Ravioli ($12) is a go-to dish at Moku Kitchen and their Sister Monkeypod Kitchen.  The Squash is sweet and pairs perfectly with the pasta which I learned is frozen Gyoza wrappers and not fresh pasta as I always thought.  My Wife who is trying the Nutri System diet right now went with the Vegetable Roasted Plate ($15) and loved it.  She said she would return again to eat the same dish.  I went for the Fried Chicken Sandwich ($14) and was hugely disappointed.  Did not like the taste of the sandwich at all.  Only ate half.  At $14 you would think this would come with a side but all you get is a small portion of Kim Che which I did like.  What was good about the sandwich was the Pickles and Tomato.  The Chicken was bland and the batter to me sucked.  Would never order this again.
