Deb did wonderfully selecting the luau...she and Christine had been to other luau's on the island on previous visits, but this was my first, as well as Christy's. Reviews dictated the
Old Lahaina Luau was the best, and it surely was. We were pleased with the gorgeous view and sunset on the Lahaina coastline...
We also watched them dig up our dinner, PIG! They call it "Kalua Pua'a." It's roasted in the underground oven called a "imu'."
Additionally, they had all sorts of Hawaiian favorites to eat...and drinks kept flowing. Here's the menu if you are curious...
menu link. I had no shame drinking the Pina Colada's, the Lava Flows, and Mai Tai's. I love tropical drinks with rum, they definitely are something you can drink in Hawaii without much judgement. I know I won't order them here in Houston while out with friends...I don't need to lob that one in for jokes!
After we were done with our amazing food, we had entertainment. I don't know exactly what entertainment you typically expect during a luau, but it was great. They told a story about Hawaii, the history, the culture...all through song and dance.
I kept thinking of the "hips swing" song...
I highly recommend the Old Lahaina Luau...
Wow what a great time...I am not sure I could go for watching them dig up my dinner:) Maybe just because I don't eat meat, lol:) Great photos...
ReplyDeleteOh my goodness, this reminds me of my honeymoon. We stayed at Wailea and were told the Old Lahaina was the absolute best Luau but we decided to stay at our resort. Needless to say we regret not going...
