First Friday
This photo was taken inside the Hemmeter Building, the location of a new restaurant called "Downtown @ the HiSAM", a restaurant for the Hawaii State Art Museum and serves fare a la France, Italy and Spain, deli style. The Hemmeter building is also worthy of mention since its a historical building:- Built in 1872
- Purchased by Chris Hemmeter in 1987, it underwent a $30 million upgrade.
- Three years later, he sold it to BIGI Corp. of Japan for $82 million.
- The state was renting the Hemmeter building for $2 million a year and eventually purchased if for $22.5 million.

Interesting information. The Japanese have invaded Hawaii, or so I was told. The investments there are monumental and, that destination is the top destination of JAL from Japan. Does all that sound about right to you?

Hi Kala, I'm glad you continued posting and also that I find time and the way to visit your blog once again. Photos are generally excellent with some favourites truly outstanding: Hello, Lines or Shave Ice are incredible. Anyhow, I wouldn't reject visiting this Downtown @ the HISAM. It looks inviting... Have a nice weekend.
