Maui, Hawaii, Lahaina, Aloha Mixed Plate, Beachside Grill, Open-air Dining, View of Mala Wharf
The next day, I was heading down to Wailea to hear my good friend, Larry, perform at the Wailea Shops. On the way I stopped at Aloha Mixed Plate — one of my favorite "local" places. This oceanside grill is owned by the same folks who own the Old Lahaina Luau (best luau on Maui). This long-time visitor gives strong recommendations for both. FYI, they are located makai (ocean side) of Long's Drugs at the Cannery Mall at the north end of Lahaina. The Grill offers open-air dining among the gentle mid-day breezes (keeping the flies away). Sample some of the local treats like Teriyaki Beef, Kalbi Ribs, Kailua Pork, Fresh Island Fish or Mochiko Chicken. Can't decide? Try a combo plate. My table overlooked the ocean with the island of Lana‘i on the horizon. Also nearby is the Mala Wharf. I noticed someone standing out on the wharf which is closed with a not-very-effective barrier trying to keep people off. Oh well, not my problem today.
