King's Hawaiian

King's Hawaiian is a famous bakery that sells delicious baked goods as well some pretty tasty Hawaiian style "plate lunches".

Here you see the Blueberry Coffee Cake and the rest of their scrumptous array of baked goods.

The Paradise Cake is probabley one of there best cakes for Birthday's, Celebrations, etc. They will do customized designs and personalized touches if you order in advance. You can also find their Hawaiian Bread in most local stores....try lightly toasting and spreading a little butter on top.

Truffle Fries

Let's start this off with a few of my gf favorite things.... Truffle Fries from BOA.

Crispy, creamy, savory, rich & of course fattening. These tasty treats work well as an appetizer or a nice compliment the juicy steaks they serve.



Try a glass of California Central Coast med+ bodied Pinot Noir (Summerland, Domaine Alfred Gainey, etc), its smooth tannins should pair well with the truffle & the acidity should match up to the creaminess of the cheese.
