Honolulu recs..Cafe Miro, Yohei Sushi

[mangia]

Just got back..two out-of-the-way places to recommend:

Care Miro, 3446Waialae Ave. 808-734-2727
Chef Shigeru Kobayashi, French trained, elegant little spot, mostly French with Asian/Island touches. They just started baking their own breads. Two price fixed menus to choose from-reasonably priced.

Yohei Sushi 1111 Dillingham Blvd. #E1A'
808 841 3773

POPULAR (very crowded) sushi place in what looked like an industrial shopping center.
They take reservations for the sushi bar. We let the chef pick our choices--enjoyed it all especially the broiled baby abalone on the shell. Not insanely pricey, either.

My PT went to a birthday party there over the weekend. She said the food was most amazing, the service fabulous and the ambiance lovely (Cafe Miro). I am anxious to
try it sometime as well after her report. Their group was 14 and she said it was so
intimate and fun, food paced well, prepared well and delicious.

Thanks for the report. I am not familiar with either. Sushi on O`ahu is a constant topic, so your info will definitely help someone.

I haven't eaten at Cafe Miro but I can tell you right across the street on the corner is Town and that you should definitely try! We just had the most amazing dinner there last week.
