CASUAL DINING
|
| When we don't want to dress up, when the budget is a bit busted, when we're hanging out with the gang, these are the restaurants we choose. There's considerable variation among them in price, food style and atmosphere, but all cultivate a relaxed feeling and, in most cases, there's no need for reservations or anything fancier than T-shirt and slippers. |

At Sam Choy's family-friendly restaurant and microbrewery, seafood is at the center of the menu: seared 'ahi sashimi, fried poke and crab six ways. Also a specialty here: Sam-size breakfasts, including many varieties of moco (hot rice, meat or fish, eggs and gravy over all we like the pork chops) plus the trademark beef stew omelet and the fisherman's platter (grilled fish and eggs).
