Knowing that our room wouldn’t be ready for a while, I made brunch reservations for our day of arrival on Maui. Wanting to try something new this time, I chose SixtyTwo MarcKet in Wailuku for our first meal on-island. Typically, when we fly into Maui, our first order of business is to get something to […]

My primary dining goal for our recent Las Vegas trip was to finally try e by Jose Andres. It was a reservation I was barely able to get in 2020, and the cancelation that stung the most. So it was sweet redemption when we finally made it there. e by Jose Andres is an avant-garde […]

On our third night in Vegas, our entire family had dinner at Sakana All-You-Can-Eat Sushi. Not only is the sushi all you can eat, but it’s also a really inexpensive spot that’s popular with both locals and visitors alike. Typically, I tend to stay away from all-you-can-eat restaurants. Not only can I not eat that […]

This year, for Mrs. Island Miler’s birthday, I decided to book us dinner at one of Honolulu’s newest and quirkiest restaurants – HeiHo House. They bill themselves as a gastropub, which is still fairly unique for Hawaii and is one of our favorite types of concepts. Gladly, they didn’t disappoint! Though we’re actually going to […]

For a while now, I’ve seen people talking about a place in Kaneohe that makes a variety of different, locally-inspired noodles. But, it wasn’t until just recently that I finally made my way there. So, here’s what I thought of Adela’s Country Eatery. Adela’s Country Kitchen is a literal hole-in-the-wall that was widely covered by […]

Hawaii-based supermarket chain Foodland has been busy reinventing itself. Part of that reinvention is new stores like the company’s Foodland Farms and smaller Kahala Market concepts. But, their diversification now includes restaurants. Recently, I got to try one of these restaurants – Et Al Hawaii by Foodland. While I like shopping at Foodland stores, I […]

Recently, I had a hankering for pizza. So, in what was our first indoor dine-in experience together since Sushi Sho Waikiki, we headed over to Brick Fire Tavern in the Honolulu neighborhood of Kaimuki. And what we found there, aside from great pizza, was a fantastic lunch value. Originally established in Chinatown, Brick Fire Tavern […]

Back in March, Mrs. Island Mileer insisted on taking me out for my birthday. We skipped the prior because of the pandemic. But, with things slowly reopening, we decided to give Quiora Waikiki dinner service a try. Why Quiora Waikiki? We’ve actually been here before for breakfast. But, at night, Quiora Waikiki serves up a […]

During our recent stay at the Royal Hawaiian, a Luxury Collection Resort, the only on-property restaurant open at that time was the Mai Tai Bar. This, of course, is due to the pandemic. And because I wasn’t given an elite benefit choice at check-in and was given a breakfast voucher, here’s my Mai Tai Bar […]

After settling into our suite at the Royal Hawaiian, we decided to get some lunch. Given the pandemic, that’s a bit more difficult than you’d think. But, I remembered seeing something I wanted to check out. That’s how we ended up taking advantage of the amazing Tsurutontan Waikiki deals. As was the case back in […]
