One of our favorite jaunts at Ala Moana, Honolulu’s shopping mecca, is Panya Bistro. This past Sunday, after a run to Williams Sonoma for a bagel slicer, measuring spoons, and Illy coffee beans–OK, perhaps a little bougie but we all have our moments–we headed down for a little liquid meditation. While Panya’s usual happy hour is from 4 to 6 pm, happy hour is all day on Sundays and Mondays, making Panya a perfect spot to cap off  the weekend… or ease the way into a new week. The New Year’s new healthful diet (sweet potatoes, broccoli, apples, amongst other excitement) put some limits on enjoying the appetizer selection, but thankfully, there was still room for a little Tanqueray in a classic martini ($7). Paired with some steamed edamame ($5), it was ideal for catching up on the latest fashion happenings in French Vogue.
