Old Lahaina Luau




Here we are at the Old Lahaina Luau in Lahaina across from the Cannery Mall. Got our first leis and they are gorgeous. Probably about 200+ people in attendance. All the drinks you want from the listed menu and lots of luau food that included Kalua Pua'a (roasted pork), poi (starch with no taste), Ahi Poke (raw yellow fin tuna), Sweet Potato (purple in color, tasted great), Pulehu Steak, Chicken Long Rice, Island Style Chicken (too greasy & cold), Mahi Mahi, Stir Fry Vegetables, Maui style Fried Rice (very good), Island Crab Salad (quite good), Taro Salad (taro & spinach in coconut sauce), Phole Salad, Lomi Lomi Salmon (okay, but not something we would care to have again), and for dessert: coconut pudding squares, macadamia nut tarts (yummy), macadamia nuts shredded atop chocolate brownies, dark chocolate micro-tart filled with passion fruit creme (quite yummy).


The island hula performance was about 1.5 hours long & WOW could they dance & tell the story of the Hula and the island. It was very entertaining and thoroughly enjoyable (even though the wooden chairs did get just a little old!).
