Since the performance wasn't until 8:00pm and Le Guignol was right across the street from the Blaisdell Concert Hall, we decided to have dinner before the show. We started with some celebratory Champagne (since it almost was K's B-Day) and uncorked a Deutz Brut Classic (from the Iolani Palace Royal Ball).
Then went immediately to a 1992 Henri Goutourbe Collection Rene Grand Cru
We started with Vichyssoise
Escargot
And the Shrimp and Asparagus Salad
Then progressed to the Choucroute
And the Sole Meuniere
Of course, since we had about 25 minutes to spare, we also uncorked an Egly-Ouriet Extra Brut V.P. Grand Cru
With the Chocolate Mousse
Olive Oil Cake
And Creme Brulee
And just as we were exiting Le Guignol, we heard the 5 minute warning from the Concert Hall to "please be seated"...
