Hawaii Comes for a Visit This Memorial Day Weekend 

I love how St. George make places for family fun in Southern Utah. Thunder Junction off Dixie Drive is one of these places. This weekend they kick it up a notch with Hulapalooza featuring a live performance from Siva Pasefika. 

It is this Saturday, May 25th starting at 6 PM at Thunder Junction, the All Abilities Park. Here's a taste of what you can expect from this fantastic show.

You get the energy and fun of the performance along with a train ride, frozen treats, crafts, and all the park has to offer for just $10 per person. This is a cool event to add to all the great things that go on every weekend in Southern Utah. 

Cap it Off with Some Hawaiian Food  

After watching the Island dancing, head to one of the great Hawaiian restaurants in town and you will feel like you have been on vacation. There is several good places to get great food. Here are three of my favorites.

Honolulu Grill is locally owned and every dish on the menu is delicious. I like the Kalua Pork, but it is all good.

Island Grinds is also owned locally, and the Pu Pu Chicken is a personal favorite. You won’t be disappointed by the Teriyaki Chicken as well.

Seven Brothers is a new place that originated in Hawaii. The burgers are well thought out and the loaded fries are amazing.

Big pat on the back for those at the city who came up with the idea for Hulapalooza. I hope it grows every year and turns into a full on feast.
