bloodymarymainI love Bloody Marys - anytime of the day. It’s not just for breakfast anymore. I travel quite a bit and make a point of trying the Bloody Mary in each place I visit. Here are the categories for my pseudo-scientific, semi-subjective rating system, 10 being the best. Do you have a favorite Bloody Mary recipe to share? email it to me and I'll post it here!:

  • SBQQ - Salad Bar Quality Quotient.
    The freshness and/or originality of the edible garnish.
  •  SB#Q - Salad Bar Quantity Quotient.
    The abundance of said garnish.
  •  FQ - Flavor Quotient.
    A basic measure of tastiness as compared to my personal taste buds.
  •  UQ - Uniqueness Quotient.
    How original or creative in it’s concoction.
  • SQ - Spicy Quotient.
    1 being completely benign, 10 being undrinkably spicy.
  • PQ - Presentation Quotient.
    How artfully or originally presented is it?
  • ILQ - Intangible Love Quotient.
    Would I order it again? Recommend it to a friend or an enemy?

Oasis grill in Kapaa, Kauai

Oasis grill in Kapaa, Kauai

Great setting on the beach. This restaurant got all 5 star reviews on yelp. We came for happy hour, so didn't get the full menu, but we'll probably come back.

The bloody was nicely balanced with just the right amount of horseradish, spice, and rock salt on the rim.

A wonderful restaurant that we enjoyed with new photographer friends, Evonne & Darren. The food was French, Island fusion style. Loved it.

Roy's in Kahana, Maui

Well, don't need to say much about this restaurant. Its one of my favorites. Roy has restaurants all over the world and we have visited many of them. They not only have consistent, delicious, Hawaiian fusion food, but fantastic service and aloha spirit that is always warm and welcoming.

The Bloody was good. A slightly sweet blend with little spice, salted rim, and pleasant flavor. Very drinkable, if not memorable.

Rockin Daves in Bend, OR

A great new breakfast, bagel, lunch, bloody Mary joint. I had the small breakfast burrito, which was big, and it was yummy and only $5! Both kids loved the place too, which is rare. The folks that work there are super friendly too, which is very important first thing in the morning!

The bloody Mary was hand crafted with hints of pickle juice, pepper juice, and other tasty ingredients. Very spicy an bold!
