Rebecca and I recently had the opportunity to hang out with About.com Hawaii editor John Fischer, who was visiting to catch up on all the latest Oahu happenings.  This was the perfect excuse to visit Chai's Island Bistro at Aloha Tower Marketplace, one of our favorite spots.  Chef Chai Chaowasaree's restaurant specializes in fresh, Contemporary Island and Pacific Rim cuisine, and is also well known for its nightly live Hawaiian music, featuring amazing local musicians such as Raiatea Helm, Brothers Cazimero, Makaha Sons, and more.  For more information about Chai's Island Bistro, including the monthly live entertainment calendar, visit www.chaisislandbistro.com or call (808) 585-0011.

John shared with us some of the great things he got to experience on his trip, like the annual Aloha Festivals Floral Parade, Kos Tours' "Hummer Movie/Lost Adventure," Hina Adventures' "Storytelling, Legends & Sacred Sites" tour, Oahu Ghost Tours' "Honolulu City Haunts" walking tour, an Original Glider Ride, and more.  To read all about John's trip and view his extensive photo gallery on About.com, visit http://gohawaii.about.com/od/oahuhonolulu/a/oahu_sept08.htm.
