Waikiki Grass Shack Bistro, Honolulu, HI USA

My 3rd business trip to Hawaii, I took the nonstop flight from Boston (again). Depart at 8am, and you’re on the beach by 2pm, super easy. This would be my 6th time in Waikiki specifically – a destination I always enjoy, and one that is perhaps the best “urban beach” in the world. I want […]

Reid’s Fine Foods, Charlotte, NC USA
