Port 4 Nawiliwili — Kaua’i Marriott and Duke’s delectable Hulu Pie

Kaua’i Marriott Resort

As I mentioned on Monday, neither Ursula nor I are strangers to  the Kaua’i Marriott Resort, and Duke’s Canoe Club Barefoot Bar and Restaurant.  We stop by both whenever we hit Nawiliwili.  Why stop at a resort at which you’re not staying?  For the beauty of it all.  Inside the resort is a very impressive garden, which views such as these:

There’s also a very nifty weather station on the grounds, but you’ll have to wait until this week’s Fun Photo Friday for that.  Meanwhile, it’s time to move on to Duke’s Canoe Club Barefoot Bar and Restaurant.

Duke’s is a place we discovered nearly twenty years ago.  We don’t really dine there.  We do desert.

What desert draws us back time and time again?  First, let me tell you that Ursula is not a lover of ice cream, which will tell you just how good this humongous piece of pie is.  What you see below, which easily sates the sweet tooth of two people, is whipped cream, toasted macadamia nuts, and hot fudge topping a huge slice of macadamia nut ice cream pie in a chocolate cookie crust:

Fun Photo Friday will present my favorite shots from this excursion to Nawiliwili.
