Writing in from New Jersey, and still thinking about this show!…read more From the moment you walk in, you're placed into this beautifully curated museum of oddities that immediately sets the tone for the rest of the evening. It's immersive, thoughtful, and has a little bit of history. Once inside the theater, the stage design continues that experience, reflecting King David's travels with what feels like carefully collected souvenirs from his travels around the world. I loved how the history was woven in so seamlessly. It actually sent me down a rabbit hole learning more about Hawaii's last monarch afterwards haha. The show itself? Phenomenal. Aki and Ken are not only incredibly skilled magicians; both masters of sleight of hand and parlor magic respectively, but also genuinely hilarious. Their chemistry carries the entire experience, and they stayed perfectly in theme with the Hawaiian Victorian atmosphere in the magic they performed. I won't spoil anything, but I will say I was left completely mind-blown. There were moments that genuinely didn't seem possible, and just when you think you've caught your breath, another reveal hits. It just kept building, which is the type of magic I really enjoy watching. The venue is intimate and seats about 60 guests. There truly isn't a bad one in the house. Being that close makes everything even more impressive because there are no trap doors, no mirrors, nothing to hide behind. The magic happens right in front of you, and somehow that makes it even harder to believe. They also do a great job with audience participation, which adds to the fun without ever feeling forced or awkward. The show does sell out, so definitely grab tickets ahead of time. It's absolutely worth it, and I'd recommend it to anyone visiting Honolulu!

Oh my goodness, buy the tickets!!! This show is amazing!!!!…read more I found it through some Google search I did when trying to find something fun for my family and I to do for my birthday. I thought it was some ad for a show in the mainland or a scam because I've never heard of it before nor have I ever seen the theatre it was in. My daughter is 7 and I thought, "She's never seen magic before. Maybe she'll like this." Totally forgot all about it then on my birthday was scrambling to figure out what to do for fun and Google slid it back in to my searches. The ticket prices aren't bad especially if you're local. They have a bundle that gets you 1 adult and 1 child ticket for $99. The tickets for the 3 of us came out to just about $200. The ticket includes validation for Valet parking and a rum punch cocktail. The drink must've been good because I turned around for a second and my husband tanked it. It's at Hilton Waikiki Beach on Kuhio across from the Alohilani Hotel (the old Pacific Beach). I'm glad I read my confirmation email well because I thought it was at Hilton Hawaiian Village. The parking for the hotel is only Valet. We went on a Monday night to the 7:30 show and Valet was gnarly, backed up into the street. Be aware of the time it can take to get your car valeted. The show is on the second floor. The line forms right above the main hotels entrance doors. Our plans got pushed back a bit so we were running late. We ended up far back in the line and sat in the 4th row. It really didn't matter though because you can see the action from everywhere. Our magician was Shoot Ogawa. I'm not gonna give away anything about his tricks because you should get that feeling in real time. He is UNREAL. UN. REAL. Even the tricks that were supposed to be "small" were mind blowing. It was awesome to unanimously have the crowd go "WHATTTTTT" and "HEYYYYY." I know I let out a couple WTF's. I know the adults in that room had to all be skeptics, so to equally be blown away feels comforting. Like ok I'm not crazy, this stuff is inexplicable!! While he does his tricks he also talks a lot about life, his journey, humanity. He talked a lot to the kids encouraging them. He talked about how negative opinions aren't yours too keep, and knowing your value is inside. IT WAS AMAZING!!! He was preaching and cracking jokes and magicianing all at the same time the ENTIRE show. They don't allow video recording, only photos which explains why I couldn't find ANYTHING worthwhile on YouTube. Honestly, after watching the show, I appreciated that. It made everything so much more entertaining. Afterwards, you can take pictures with him and they have some merchandise you can purchase. They have little magic kits available for purchase, so on the way home we were all trying to be magicians as we ran through all the tricks that absolutely BLEW OUR MINDS. Literally the most stressful part of the entire experience was the Valet parking and dealing with Waiks traffic at night. None of that though made this experience any less worth it. BUY THE TICKETS!!! You WON'T regret it!!!!

(They had plus size options so I was happy about that) The only downside was that the GPS didn't take me to the right place. I had to circle around Ala Moana mall a few times before deciding to just park in the Ala Moana parking lot and walk there (only a 5 minute walk). Other than that, the shop is worth checking out :)

Whether I'm on vacation or business travel its no different. I like to see what the locals in the area have, and maybe find something unique or a must haves. Leather Lace & Lollipops is a cute hole in a wall lingerie store. They had everything from trade ware, to sexy bedroom play. Loved them all. The owner was gracious and kind enough to let me try on items they normally don't allow, which was fine.. since I ended up buying it. They do have hygienic items/protection for the clothing when you try things. The place is cool on its own, had a wide selection of trade items, shoes can be specially ordered. I found this out as someone was picking hers up. Ladies are very comfortable in the store, and will try things on, on the spot! Buy something and get your sexy on. heh!

I've been to la beau boutique before but i only end up looking in the store. I now have a purpose…read moreto come here occasionally. First, the store is located on Makaloa st, the same street where the ramp to sams club is located. There's street parking and customer parking (2 hours max) behind the building. When i entered the store, they had what i was looking for: shoes! Tons of shoes! I love that there was such a wide selection of style, height, sizes (no half sizes by the way), ones with ankle straps, and the like. There were some sale items as well! My shoes were about $75 with taxes and it fit comfortable! I usually don't wear any gel/plastic material around my feet but i did not have an issue trying them on and taking them off. The owner of the store was very helpful with my visit in the store as she asked me what i was looking, what size, how tall do i want the shoe to be, what color and style of the shoe, etc. i would've wanted to look at little more but i knew that i was on a mission to get in and out. There is generally a wide selection of exotic clothing, to wigs, to shoes. I'm so happy with my purchase! All sales are final once your leave the store!

I walked into the store and it's a nice small store filled with a lot of erotic goodies for Halloween and other personal uses. I was greeted by the Vietnamese store owner and was helped out right away since I was the only one in there. It felt like she was rushing me but I wanted to browse for a bit. Since I had work that day might as well take advantage of that and see it as a good thing because I know I get distracted easily and might be late for work. She asked what was my shoe size, what color I liked, and she gave me 3 shoe options to choose from. So I just went with the basic black 7 inch heels and it looks really cute on me! (I will post later) The price for the heels with tax were about $78, its quite expensive but I will give an update later on in the future and see how long it lasts.

First off, you really can't beat the price. Your ticket includes a dinner buffet and magic show…read more What a deal! I suggest arriving early so you get first pick of the food. By the time we got to desserts, the ice cream bar was a bowl of soup. I honestly only came to eat. I couldn't find any pictures online of what kinds of food would be available. As far as taste, the food was ok, let's just say I didn't grab seconds. The good thing about the buffet, was that they was a little something of everything. Even the kids had their own line. The magician was funny, the show itself was cute. I've been to magic shows in Vegas and this is nothing like that. You get what you pay for. It's definitely would check it out, but I won't pay to see it again. It was one of those, once you see it, you're good. If you've seen this show before, I'd find something else to do on a Wednesday night. Overall, food was a 2/5 and show was a 4/5. That is why I'm giving a 3 star review.

From gag gifts to hilariously inappropriate items, it's perfect for that friend (or yourself ) who loves a good laugh and doesn't take life too seriously. Every time I walk in, I end up laughing at least once and leaving with something I absolutely did not plan on buying. It's nostalgic, chaotic, and unapologetically fun which is exactly what it's meant to be. I will say that this store is not for the easily offended, but if humor is your love language, Spencer's is the place to go.

We chose Cat because 5 years ago she was the only speech level teacher on the island! Having been a…read morestudent of the SLS method in Maui myself, I was determined that my daughter should learn this method as well. Enter Cat. At the time my daughter was only 6 years old, and the youngest student in the studio. Cat had not had a student so young yet (now there are so many, it seems!) but she was willing to take a chance on us. She did not disappoint, treating my daughter with as much professionalism, respect and poise as she would any adult, all the while exhibiting patience and the insight to incite motivation in my daughter to learn and grow as a singer. In the years that followed my daughter performed in a number of singer showcases with other students from the studio. You have only to attend one of these showcases to see the level of success in each and every student - not just in skill, but in confidence and coordination. Everyone comes from a different place in terms of exposure, experience and skill, but Cat is somehow able to figure out what works best for you and your situation. And SLS is a fantastic method that really aids everyone from the shower singer to the aspiring local artist in singing their own best notes (to steal a line from Cat herself!)! Cat is a positive teacher who encourages you to reach higher and celebrates you when you get there. Her studio is in a great central location, and is warm and inviting. She even offers Skype lessons! If singing is something you've always wanted to explore and you're looking for a skilled teacher, visit Cat Wong Studio. You won't be disappointed!
