Best of Honolulu
Perhaps we should all take a cue from the gent pictured here selling manapuas and smile. There’s a lot to be happy about, you know. We live in paradise, or at least a close approximation, for one. And, two, it looks like Hurricane Flossie is going to pass us by. Most importantly, it’s time for Honolulu Weekly’s Best of Honolulu 2007, our annual celebration of the best–and the worst–that this city has to offer. Where’s the best place to buy imported beer? Where’s the best place to fly a kite? Who’s the politician most likely to resign in disgrace? Answers to these questions and more are inside.
