Gyu-Ka-Ku treat


Ahi poké (Raw tuna appetizer)
Melon splash cocktail

Since I got to Honolulu, for some reason, we've not felt much of a need to go out to restaurants to eat. It's been more fun choosing groceries and cooking together in the kitchen. This Friday night though, the beau surprised me by treating me to Japanese Barbeque at Gyu-Ka-Ku. There's lots of drinks and grilling dishes half off during dinner happy hour time. Having made reservations, we were seated immediately and went to town ordering! The place smelt like heaven as the sweet aroma of barbequed meats on the cook-your-own grills on each table filled our nostrils. We got the bone-in kalbi(beef), NY steak, miso harami (beef skirt steak), beer battered fries, chuck kalbi, ahi poké, eggplant and the mushroom medley. It was way too much food but it did not disappoint especially the miso harami. And neither did my lychee and melon splash cocktails!


I realized something new tonight. No matter how comfortable couples are about being home-bodies, it's important to leave the house and do something special and out of the ordinary every once in a while. It keeps things fresh, interesting, new. It adds a little spark to things. A chance to re-discover and share something new together. It's a big turn on. Bottom line, it's a dose of good fun necessary in healthy relationships.
