We had an awesome time at dinner tonight. The MTA (Mililani Town Association) sponsored a Fine Dining Experience along with a Parent's Night Out. We had a 4 course dinner, with wine, great company and awesome service.
It was held at Mari's Garden, and Presented by Chef Elmer Guzman. He cooked the following...
The 1st Course - the Oyster Shooter and gingered chicken everyone agreed was very tasty.
the 2nd course I just died laughing., not at all over what we had - a salad that we had to 'Snip & Serve' - with garden clippers even! I had to laugh - because I had JUST seen not two days ago a video clip of the late Sid Caesar titled 'Health Food Restaurant', in the video, Sid and his wife 'Snip and Serve' their meal at the end. I never - ever - thought I would have that served to me. but you know what... the greens along with the papaya salad... mmmmmm yummy!!
3rd Course was a beef and lobster, and the last was a dessert that I have a hard time explaining, but it was nice and light.
Oh., and along with the salad they had 2 types of nasturtium flowers, one was an Empress of India, just like the ones I bought for Diane for Valentine's Day.
Along with the Dinner, we had a tour of the working farm., they are into hydroponics and a lot of other things as well. the amount of produce and fish that they pump out each month is impressive.
Mari's Garden uses photovoltaic electricity, has organic and non-organic produce, and sells that produce to local businesses here in the islands. In the photo, the goats... they eat all the left over clippings and other scraps left over. and they eat everything. lol
We will be looking forward to the next dinner. See you there!
