A Meal In Honolulu

"Strange Bedfellows."

It is a long time since we have had a food post.

Donald Sevigny, Clan Woodman of the Shaws, and Maura Sumantri of Djakarta and Chicago set out to consume:

martini;
pate de foie gras;
smoked oysters;
marinated artichokes;
thousand-year eggs;
soup;
teriyaki;
consome Mexique;
filet of mahimahi;
tossed salad;
ice cream with Martian herb sause;
champagne.

However, their meal is interrupted by an action sequence.

From a skyscraper restaurant, they see:

multi-coloured Honolulu, flashing and glistening by night;
sheening ocean;
Waikiki surf;
crowded sky;
quarter Moon.

Sevigny is kidnapped but we are dwelling on the details, not following the action. That can wait.

Kaor, Paul!

My late older brother loved Hawaii, where he lived for 28 years. I visited him and his wife there 10 or 11 times.\
