Hawaii Day 4: Mitch's Sushi and En Route to Turtle Bay Resort

Picked up car from Alamo, turned out it was only a block away from Mitch's Sushi.
For lunch, had the long awaited spiny lobster sashimi - delicious!!!  (and also the grilled abalone is also very tasty).

Mitch's Sushi bill... not cheap.  But you get what you pay for.  $70 may seem pricey for the lobster sashimi, but it is decent sized, and it also comes with a miso soup that has the lobster's head.  The hamachi, amaebi, and toro were also really good.
After lunch, headed towards the north to Turtle Bay Resort.  On the way, stopped by to try the famous Matsumoto Shaved Ice.  Really long lines to wait for the shaved ice.  As it turns out, the hype was because they had alot of flavors.  In my opinion, I think there is better shaved ice in Waikiki.  In that same mall, they have some really tasty mochis - definitely worth eating/tasting.

Got to Turtle Bay Resort in time for happy hour.  Had some delicious tacos!  The location is just stunning.  Great view, very peaceful.  Thank you Citi Premier - if it wasn't for this credit card's signing bonus, we would not have gotten 2 nights for the price of 4!!!
