Hawaii

Filed Under: Travel

Hawaii greets visitors with a hearty “aloha” and flowered necklaces called leis upon arrival. United Airlines flies directly there from Chicago. While it is an over eight flight, as long as the passenger is prepared it’s not a problem. One suggestion is to eat before the ride or bring a snack on the plane. Small morsels are offered for purchase also after boarding on United Airlines for this trip.

The Modern Honolulu Hotel has an over four-star rating with breathtaking views and heated saltwater pool. Hidden behind a bookcase in the lobby like a grown up Clue game is the bar area. Fireworks exploded every night and frozen coconut mojito really cools off the tourists in their lounge. It is a little off the beaten path and doesn’t offer a private beach but the service and valet are top notch.

Start off the day early by visiting the fish auction, located on Pier 38, to see where local restaurants bid on their favorite member of the ocean. Bring a jacket because everything is stored in a walk-in refrigerator. The fishermen arrive at 1:00 am to prepare the proceedings and don’t stop until it is all sold with opening bids beginning at 5:00 am. Culinary classes are offered onsite with tuna and swordfish being very popular.

Next door is Nico’s with an excellent fish and eggs breakfast. Don’t forget to try that tartar sauce along with it. Here is a picture of Nico himself in front of his restaurant.

The West Oahu Farms is a complete learning experience where farmers are students who have their tuition paid for by while learning about the environment. Whole Foods are among other vendors purchasing their food fresh from this farm.

The Naked Cow Dairy is where milking and pounding out butter is everyday life. Pickles the cow works overtime as there is a huge demand for fresh cream. With garlic and coconut butter it’s easy to see why this business is booming with local sisters as owners.

The first Hawaii Food & Wine Festival kicked off with celebrity chefs such as Iron Chef Masaharu Morimoto and table after table of samples for the crowds to try. Roy Yamaguchi of Roy’s Restaurant began the festival with a quick speech. Attendees enjoyed the festival over the entire weekend as it moved to various locations while raising money for charity. Check back on their website http://www.hawaiifoodandwinefestival.com as it promises to be even bigger and better next year.

Jared Leto’s band Thirty Seconds to Mars rocked it that same evening at the Aloha Tower Water Front. This was not typical local reggae music and the fans loved it when Jared brought a few onlookers onstage.

The next morning the He’eia Fishpond proved a worthy excursion with a 700-year old taro field garden. Tourists can learn about how the fish are herded into the crystal clear water then try some poke, or sliced raw fish, at a build your own buffet.

“Eat the Street” is a big block party of lunch wagons where the community gathers monthly to try samples. Everyone loved the OnoPops with their frozen chili pepper jam swirl or another popular dessert was the Fairy Cakes baked from scratch.

Hot spots at night can be found everywhere in Honolulu with karaoke offered on almost every block. Hula’s Bar and Lei Stand had a nice mix of go-go boys, a pool table and live hula show with fun drinks. After Wang Chung’s was incredibly small but full of friendly locals to sing a song with no judgment involved.

Every Saturday the Kapiolani Community College Farmers’ Market brings local growers together for over 50 booths with everything from pizza to sea asparagus.

Disney just opened the Aulani Resort with an amazing spa on the beach. The service is top notch as expected from the Mouse.

If a tourist wants to get away from the chain restaurants try the Rainbow Drive-In. For over 49 years this joint has served plate lunches to such big names as Shaquille O’Neal and Barack Obama. For its 50th anniversary they will roll back prices to 25-cent hamburgers to celebrate.

If chips are your favorite snack Kilauea Fire bbq sauce should hit the spot with homemade taro chips and sauce inspired by the lava of a volcano.

For recreation after eating, O’ahu is home to more than 125 beaches so try snorkeling, surfing or stand up paddle boarding. Take a class at the Hans Hedemann Surf School and the instructors will keep you safe while taking pictures to capture the moment.

Chef Mavro is the place to dine after that paddling workout with a AAA five diamond signature restaurant. With a mix of French and seafood courses, selections range from grilled diver scallop grenobloise to a caviar flight.

Each island has its own personality. It’s a short flight on Hawaiian Airlines to Maui. Being the second largest of the island, Maui. Whale watching and rainfall are common in Maui.

The Fairmont Kea Lani is elegant as part of Polo Beach. The pools alone are impressive with an adult pool next to the bar. Have a massage on the beach in a private cabana or ride in a canoe on the waves. Ko restaurant is located inside the Fairmont and with the help of Chef Pang has out of this world cuisine. With a multi-million dollar renovation the new Ko will be open for lunch and dinner in February.

Don’t miss a party to see the sunset as Ali’I Nui Sailing takes a cruise complete with cocktails and hors d’oeuvres making it a relaxing water getaway.

On the other side of the island is Hana, a forest paradise that is difficult to travel to but well worth it. The traveler needs to take their time on the road to Hana. Hiking and waterfalls can break up the sometimes single-lane drive to the resort Travaasa Hana. With daily spa treatments, meals included and ocean front cottages the tedious trip is quickly forgotten. This really is more than a resort but a compound where technology and loud children are a thing of the past. Travelers can surrender to a vacation that is worth the trip to escape typical civilization.

With winter quickly approaching this is the time to book a trip to one or more of the islands today.

Hawaii Gay Bars

Filed Under: Travel
Aloha!
With direct flights from Chicago and temperatures dropping this could be a good time to head to Hawaii.
I stayed at the Modern Honolulu for the first ever Wine & Food Festival. The nightlife scene is in walking distance making it convenient and fun to explore.
First stop was Hula’s Bar & Lei Stand, 134 Kapahulu #2. The number two stands for upstairs at a shopping center. The place is warm and inviting. Everyone drinks mai tai’s on the island but look for specialty cocktails such as the High School Harry Bloody Mary.
There is a pool table and go go boys to appease all types. A live male hula show was fun and they celebrated a birthday while I was there. The age range was all over the place and is a super space to bring a straight friend where they will feel comfortable as well.
Karoake is extremely popular in Honolulu. The new kid in town is Wang Chung’s at 2410 Koa Avenue. With the friendliest staff I have encountered and lychee infused vodka this is a no brainer. The space is very small so not much room for dancing. Look for a bootie in the face if you are sitting on a bench. When the bartenders are cute and can sing everybody was having that night!
In the heart of the bustling straight bars there is Fusion Waikiki at 2260 Kuhio Avenue upstairs. When I saw prostitute looking drag queens wandering in and out the door this should have been a sign to head for the hills. The whale that took my ten dollars at the door was rude and sour. The early show had a broke down hostess. The strippers were not hot and bachelorettes had taken over the place. Later the place turns into a dance club but it was too late. I will take my chances with the drunken tourists outside instead.
If you are looking for a quick hook up Grind R and Manhunt created a fast way to make friends the island. Catch the wave and let your fingers do the walking. Also, Max’s Gym is a good place to work out as well as enjoy a sauna. Located inside a strip mall this gentleman’s club can be a little tricky to find for your trick.
Overall the natives were very friendly and welcoming. Gay friendliness was everywhere and there is lots to see and do for the LGBT traveler.

New Mexico

Filed Under: Travel

New Mexico can really change a traveler’s expectation. This old world meets new world makes a relaxing getaway full of art, sun and mountain ranges.

This southwestern state is a melting pot of cultures some of the population is from Mexico and Spain, with Pueblo, Apache and Navajo blood running through its veins. New Mexico is the fifth largest state as far as landmass in the United States measuring 373 miles from point to point. Albuquerque is their largest city. There was such a feeling of friendliness upon arrival. Direct flights into the Albuquerque airport make it a breeze. There is a convenient Rail Runner Express that now brings travelers from south of ABQ to Santa Fe.

Upon arriving to the historic plaza in SF just hop on to a tram provided by Loretto Line Tour learn the history of the tourist town. Santa Fe means holy faith in English and was discovered in 1610. Take in the view of the architecture and style of the surrounding buildings there. Houses are constructed with a flat roof style, built with mortar, mud and brick. Coyote fencing separate many buildings and harkens back 400 years. Moors have contributed to the blue trim on the door and window frames outside many homes. If a person lives on a dirt road locals believe that is charming and lucky.

Kenetic wind sculptors and statues add to the outdoor charm. The cost of living is high in this part of New Mexico so it is important to look good on the outside as well as the inside.

The majority of businesses try to capture the rustic atmosphere. The Hotel St. Francis brings an upscale feeling to the spirit of old Santa Fe with handcrafted furniture. Try the breakfast at their new in house restaurant Tabla de Los Santos or walk to the corner for Pasqual’s. Sit at the community table to get to know your neighbor and try out chile sauce. The spicy temperature varies from place to place so if in doubt just say “Christmas” and the food preparers will mix up the red and green sauces on the dish.

Max’s: Inspired American Cuisine is a little off the beaten path but make sure to try the two hour egg with polenta and the rabbit pot pie. They also have a chef tasting menu that the table next to me raved about.

There are restaurants, shops and museums on every street with walking distance. Must see art collections include Georgia O’Keefe’s Museum, Houshang’s Gallery and New Mexico Museum on Art. Munch away at Bobcat Bites featured on the Oprah show as a Top Twenty Best Burger or try The Shed for lunch with the locals. Climb up to Capitol Hill to get a bird’s eye view of the scenic town. Lesbian owned Rouge Cat provided some nightlife including a disco ball dance floor that heats up on the weekend. The older LGBT community resides at Rainbow Vision with village housing and assisted living for the elderly. Where else can you see a drag show and check your blood pressure at the same time?

The climate was a surprise with temperatures that fluctuate so drastically. Come prepared with a jacket or saddle blanket. A deep freeze surprised locals and affected vegetation this past winter. A victim of its environment this area of the country is experiencing a draught so start with a rain dance. The Gathering of Nations brought multiple tribes in town to sing, dance and compete for awards. A festival outside the arena had lines for flatbread, booths for art and education for this one time a year event.

Corrales is a short jaunt from downtown Albuquerque but offers an excellent place to rest at the Chocolate Turtle Bed & Breakfast. They really make a traveler feel at home with a cozy room and real roadrunners peck at the backdoor daily for tender morsels.

Casa Vieja Restaurant is not old but new to the territory opening in the past two years but has already built a solid reputation. Chef Josh continually wins awards and can create dishes custom made for the adventurer. The drinks are unforgettable, such as the Tuna Paloma that has nothing to do with fish but is related to a cactus.

Renew your skin at the Great Face and Body after a dry day in the sun then hike up Nob Hill to eat and shop with the artist community.

If you would like to try a B&B closer to ABQ then try the Adobe Nido Bed & Breakfast. An outdoor sauna along the garden can refresh a person as well as an enormous Jacuzzi tub inside the room. Nearby there is the Standard Diner that was featured on the Food Network recently. The Kobe beef burger was a treat.

Drag shows at the Albuquerque Social Club can be a smoky experience but the drinks are so cheap one might not care. The whole town then jets over to Effex Nightclub to dance the night away. There is a rooftop deck for fresh air and go-go dancers. Gamble until daylight at the Sandia Casino and then golf all the next day in this breathtaking resort. Concerts are offered throughout the season with Ricky Martin appearing when I was in town with Stevie Nicks and Dolly Parton slated in the upcoming months.

A few hours away find the quaint town of Truth or Consequences. This spa city was originally named Hot Springs but changed it for the Ralph Edwards show in 1950.

The pace can be very slow here but it makes up for it in character. The Geronimo Springs Museum covers the history of scalping (not actually started with Natives but in Mexico for ransom) and a pottery collection that is out of this world. I even spotted a fellow nun…

The Pelican Spa has a huge loft space to match its mineral spa in the heart of town. Another sleeping option is the Blackstone Hotsprings where their television themed rooms such as The Jetsons or Golden Girls suite keep visitor reminiscing.

For a huge breakfast eat at Happy Belly Deli and Los Arcos Steak & Lobster House drums up dinner. Down the road is Elephant Butte Lake that brings in close to a million visitors per year with water skiing, tubing, and fishing. RV parking is offered right up to the edge of this lake that feeds into the Rio Grand.

A spaceport is in the process of being built that should blast off the remote area into the future.

Three different places in New Mexico showcase a variety for the traveler, for tourism head to Santa Fe, for a big city experience try Albuquerque and for a small town feel visit Truth or Consequences. If you have time then try all three to get the real feel for the Land of Enchantment.

Puerto Vallarta

Filed Under: Travel

Puerto Vallarta or P.V. is a resort city with something for every tourist. Food was the focus of this trip as many unforgettable dishes were tried on this excursion to Mexico.

The sixth largest city in Jalisco, Mexico, Puerto Vallarta was named after Ignacio Vallarta the former governor of the state. Some say that Elizabeth Taylor feuding with Richard Burton while he was there filming Night of the Iguana put PV on the map but it has grown in popularity for a variety of reasons. Luxury hotels built in the 1970s helped build tourism culminating in 1980 with the Hotel Sheraton Buganvilias Resort and Convention Center, where I had the opportunity to stay on my visit. Within walking distance of shops and the downtown area this safe and spacious boutique hotel offered butler service along with a spa, shops, restaurants and bars within the complex facing Banderas Bay.

Tino’s family owned restaurant provided lunch the first day on arrival known for its seafood such as their shrimp empanada or red snapper. Just feeling the warm breeze made me forget the temperamental United States weather.

Bernard Guth from Trio Restaurant brought a taste of Germany to town on the oldest street in Puerto Vallarta. His Mediterranean flavor cuisine is very popular among locals and adds to Restaurant Week ever year.

The Teatro Vallarta is fairly new to the community and brings in such shows as Fandango that is a musical journey with a variety of styles of dancing taking the audience through the history of Mexico.

El Arrayan, the restaurant named after the tree planted in the courtyard uses 100% locally produced ingredients. Carmen Porras and her partner run the business where the local market is the focus. The Conchinita Pibil is a must try from Yucatan, The boneless pork leg is served with a delicious Habanero pepper relish. The Boom Boom martini made with Raicilla El Real Gold infused with spearmint sparked an explosion in my mouth. Raicilla is the local moonshine, a type of organic tequila.

Arrayan provides cooking classes and was voted the Best Mexican Restaurant six years in a row. Crickets from Oaxaca are purchasable at the gift shop within the dining area for a crunchy treat.

For a private sandy beach try a boat tour with Yelapa & Majahuitas Tours. Snorkeling, swimming and kayaking in a private cove is what many visitors dream of but don’t forget the sunscreen.

Head out to El Eden’s Eco Park if you are a daredevil and want to fly over the jungle. This zip line tour with a Predator movie theme will reach out and scare you from the trees. The 1986 film was made there way before Schwarzenegger’s recent troubles. Video and photo shoots provided by the locals can make lasting memories as you zoom down 12 jumps on cables. Afterwards, have lunch there and swing on a rope in the local watering hole to relax after a sweaty climb on the hike. On the way out make sure and stop by the Don Crispin Tequila Factory to sample the 100% blue agave spirit made the artisan way.

Zona Romantica is the LGBT area to cruise. Blue Chairs, “a resort by the sea,” includes a friendly place to visit the beach, enjoy happy hour and various themes each night in the birds eye level bar. Don’t forget such fun nightlife as La Noche or Wet with go-go boys. Paco’s Ranch had a fun drag show during the week. Who knew Toni Braxton and Gwen Stefani were down in Mexico? If you need a little hand holding try gay tour guide Christian at Gay Vallarta Bar Hopping to show you around.

The Blanca Blue is one of the most captivating places to dine located in the Garza Blanca Resort. The view is breathtaking of the sunset and a live band playing only added the romance and contemporary European cuisine. Who doesn’t love an infinity pool?

Too bad the trip couldn’t last an infinite time as the week drew to a close. Many adventures await a traveler when visiting this magnificent part of Mexico that has something for everyone.

AeroMexico provides travel from Chicago to Puerto Vallarta and does not prefer carry on bags so keep that in mind when flying.

Las Vegas

Filed Under: Travel

What does Las Vegas mean for tourism? Literally the words translate to “The Meadows” in English. Located in the middle of the Mohave green is not for grassy meadows but instead for gambling the green away, restaurants and shows. Sin City makes a tempting getaway for a vacationer since it never seems to sleep and has a warm climate.

While it may be easy for a traveler to go through money like water in the desert, try spending your hard earned dollars on things that make more lasting memories than a slot machine.

Begin your visual journey with Viva Elvis by Cirque du Soleil is a fun light show about the King’s life with dancing and singing of his many hits.

For fans that crave even more shaking try an experience that is unique with Jabbawockeez.  This white masked dance crew break the rules and their show has been extended until November at the Monte Carlo.

Coming soon look for Absinthe where high wire acrobats and circus performers flip out on the strip. After interviewing the Gazillionaire on the red carpet I learned the show is strictly for adults with fire and burlesque dancers in a 100-year-old tent with mirrors covering every angle at Caesars Palace. While you are there have some comfort food at Munchbar that serves late night then switch to breakfast food the next morning.

During the day recharge your batteries at Vdara Spa and Salon with their French Lavender Massage. Crystals at CityCenter containing all the brands that name shoppers can hope for from GUCCI to Prada and the list goes on. The Louis Vuitton store is the largest in North America. Channel your inner Paris Hilton and pick up a leather pet carrier at the only United States location of Roberto Cavalli’s pet line. Take a break in the middle of shopping is to have lunch at Julian Serrano that makes it worthwhile. The crew was very friendly and helpful when trying out Spanish influenced tapas. For dessert the churros with homemade chocolate sauce were a fulfilling treat.

If a view with dinner is required there is no better place than Nove Italiano above the Palms Casino. Sip on a Pomagranita and indulge in some of the finest Italian cooking that is found on the strip.

Another dining option is the upscale L’Atelier de Joel Robushon. Guests eat around the U-shaped bar to watch the cuisine being prepared at this establishment. The chef is world-renowned and it is no wonder why. Signature dishes include lamb chops and steak tartar.

For entertainment bring your friends and solve the crime at CSI: The Experience. Head to the Luxor and see the inside of a human in Bodies or walk next door to view the inside of a ship with the Titanic.

Continue your night on the town with Peepshow at Planet Hollywood starring Holly Madison as Bo Peep. This risqué eye opener has grown into a cultural phenomenon.

Speaking of shedding some clothes, if you are looking for a clothing optional spot for men check out Blue Moon and try out their ultimate pass with huge discounts. KRAVE nightclub is the hottest gay club on the strip with theme nights to please all types. If a couple is ready to settle down, the Bellagio resort offers commitment ceremonies for the LGBT community. Maybe one day we can get hitched like everyone else in a drive thru!

There is something for everyone in this desert oasis that will make lasting memories no matter what an individual decides to indulge in.

Remember gratuity is always appreciated in this town from valet to masseuse so be ready with cash on hand at all times to grease the palm at The Palms and surrounding areas.

What does Las Vegas mean to you? Usually it means a break from the day-to-day humdrum life. With direct flights from almost anywhere, what are you waiting for? Book a trip today and use this as a guide and get there before the desert rises to a boiling point this summer.

Park City, Utah

Filed Under: Travel

Park City is really its own little world in Utah. Being just a short drive from the conservative Salt Lake City, it is a surprise that the community is so liberal. This is a tourist town with a variety of art and creativity. There are three major ski resorts, Deer Valley Resort, Park City Mountain Resort and Canyons Resort.

For the first time skier this can be an uphill battle. A king bedroom including a fireplace and Jacuzzi tub with heated towels is a nice place to start at the Chateaux at Silver Lake.

After settling in, lunch was served at Zoom, the restaurant owned by Robert Redford located at the foot of Main Street. Celebrities fight for a table yearly in the actor’s establishment every Sundance Film Festival when the simple town turns upside down with stars and paparazzi.

Getting suited up with the correct clothing and equipment was the next step in the process. Destination Sports employ helpful locals that can make uncomfortable boots a little easier to slip into. Main Street is the home of many shops to explore such as the Silver Queen Fine Art Gallery. Learn about how this mining town with over 1200 miles of mines got its start at the Park City Historical Museum. The High West Distillery & Saloon not only had excellent food but whiskey flights to warm up the belly. Try the mac & cheese along with the short ribs then go on a private tour where you can learn about whiskey and rye from the test tube to vat. Be forewarned drink plenty of liquids to help with hydration in this dry climate after partaking in spirits.

The Deer Valley Resort makes a good snowy ground to learn how to ski. With a Jetsons style conveyor belt to bring beginners to the top of the little hill, pizza and fries are served although not as a meal but an exercise on how to hold your legs on skis. “Make a wedge” was a common phrase and the way to coast and stop or fly by as a fry. Take a break at The Royal Street Café, which makes a perfect place to snack after a long day with an instructor.

The Utah Olympic Park is not only a museum but an obstacle course with slides for Olympic hopefuls to train year round. For an extra $200 a professional driver will slide down with tourists to experience 5G’s of force on a bobsled ride.

The Seafood Buffet is a sight to behold with possibly the best scallops in the country served by yummy Brazilians. 23% of the population is Latino with international students working on the lifts and restaurants from Chile to Argentina.

The Park City Mountain Resort proved more than a challenge as my instructor had to shuttle me down the mountain by my ski poles! Every bone in my body cried out for relief and there was an oasis with Amatsu Spa at the Sky Lodge. This luxury hotel offers some of the best views in town after a massage that an uptight or stressed out person will not soon forget.

The recently moved and reopened Shabu presented freestyle Asian cuisine with tableside cooking, the Wagyu beef hot rock and the firecracker shrimp. Funchop chopstick helpers provided guides for kids and myself into learning the way pick up Chinese cuisine. Seemed like the training wheels were following me everywhere even off the slopes.

The Canyons Resort sports the first heated high speed lifts in North America and motorized gondolas at Red Pine. The time of year factors in with activities such as golf and balloon rides are part of the fun for the summer.

Although there are no specific LGBT areas, locals expressed that every walk of life is accepted in their town. With over 100 restaurants and 20 bars in the city there really is something for everyone.

For a quick start there are now free lift tickets with proof of a same day flight and free public transportation, a vacationer can be on the slopes in no time.

This is just the tip of the iceberg for adventure that awaits a traveler in unique Utah.

Arizona

Filed Under: Travel

Traveling to the southwest area of the United States offers a variety of sights, cuisines and resorts to experience in the heart of Arizona. The capital and largest city in the state is Phoenix, which is also the fifth largest city in America.

Start off with the Desert Botanical Garden, a sight to behold with plants that include endangered species as well as typical cactus and wildflowers. This avant-garden presents music and a patio café. The lineup and tour schedule can be found at http://www.dbg.org.

Skip over to Scottsdale to The Westin Kierland Resort & Spa to relax and rejuvenate. Working inside the lounge is Cuban painter Nelson Garcia-Miranda. This resident artist fled his homeland for political asylum and now sells his creations only steps from the restaurant deseo located inside The Westin. To really partake in the dining experience at the Latin fusion restaurant deseo is to sit at the chef’s counter and have your meal prepared at a front row seat. The millionaire tacos are a must try along with the duck empanada. Finish the meal with a chocolate cigar but no smoking please!

Almost every clothing and department store is represented in Arizona, land of the upscale strip mall. In between all of the shopping get some culture at the Musical Instrument Museum or take a balloon ride for bird’s eye view with Rainbow Ryders. After landing back on the ground, a champagne toast is traditional for the adventurer.

The town of Tempe is not a far trek for the House of Tricks. This establishment offers a nice courtyard option for lunch. Get the party started with a hot potatotini for $12 with potato vodka, gunslinger hot sauce and a bacon garnish to perk up a meal.

The hip and fun St. Francis restaurant is a family owned business in uptown Phoenix. The dinner, service and setup were top notch for the swanky crowd.

There are several watering holes for the GLBT traveler. The dance club BS plays all the latest tunes or if two-steppin’ is your style head to Charlie’s, the original cowboy bar. In February the gay rodeo arrived in town by horseback presenting drag performances and booths of merchandise.

After being bucked off a bull, Spa Avania as part of the Hyatt Regency Scottsdale, offered a massage for those sore muscles. This was a perfect getaway to reflect with meditation and mineral water therapy. Within the same complex is SWB, a southwestern bistro with a cozy fire to sit beside and munch on chips complete with tableside guacamole and healthy salads.

The Phoenician is a resort with a strong reputation where President Obama recently visited. Walk downstairs from the lobby to eat at Il Terrazzo where American-Italian food and strong wine pairings provided by their sommelier marry the experience. After dinner listen to live music in their bar or stroll around the 250 acre developed property on the border between Scottsdale and Phoenix. A huge golf course, multi swimming pools and hot stone massage at the Centre for Well-Being offer something for everyone. Also, don’t forget the impressive art collection, shops and trails to explore in this AAA Five Diamond boutique.

An oasis in the desert where there is no need to leave the area provides rest and relaxation to the weary traveler. Take a vacation from life and plan your next trip by clicking over to http://www.visitphoenix.com where more information and websites for the above locales can be found.
