Wini: This index is fantastic. And, not just the list of restaurant reviews, but the added plus of food finds, travel tips, etc. This so helpful as I have often gone back to try to find a particular review. When trying to decide where to go to eat, being able to scan down through the whole list at once is a treat.
Thanks for recognizing that, Connie. Yes--it was a project, but very satisfying to see all I've covered. And I'm all about reader service, of course! Frankly, I wish more readers would make requests on what they'd like to see. I'm all ears!
We finally made it to Prime and Providence…and I HAD to try the mixed grill with lobster and mussels. I couldn’t finish it! It was too much for me, but that doesn’t mean I didn’t try. It was very rich, and I had never experienced flame grilled mussels. They were so charred that the shells were fragile. He had the surf and turf, and was very satisfied. The veggie he chose was potatoes au gratin with Matag bleu cheese, and it also was rich.
He even broke his rule of only one drink, because the Kalua and cream was so good. The surf and turf put us over the $200 line, but he said it was worth it.
Glad you gave it a try! It is rich. I think if I did this again, I'd split it as an appetizer for a whole table of four or so. Maybe. It is pretty danged good.

I’m glad a reader suggested it! Always let me know if there’s any features that would be helpful. Cheers, Terry!
This is great, Wini! Thank you so much for pulling this together - I'm sure it was a project!
