For those of you living on Oahu or planning to come to Oahu, there's a brand new restaurant open in Waikiki on Kuhio Avenue called MAC 24-7. They're open 24 hours, 7 days a week with FREE, yes I said free validated parking, which is a rarity anywhere in Waikiki, let alone Oahu itself. It's a really nice setting, with cool lighting and comfortable seats. It's a bar and restaurant so you could grab a couple drinks while deciding what to eat at 2 in the morning! Wow! Let me know what you all think.
