We were so looking forward to this meal! I had gone with my family a few years back before the menu changed and enjoyed it then, but didnt *love* it. When GF and I went for our first trip (on free dining) I told her meat-loving self about Ohana (meat on never ending sticks) and Whispering Canyon (meat in a never ending skillet) and told her she should choose one and we would go. She chose Whispering Canyon. We went and had a fine meal there, but it just didnt wow us. For the next trip we were paying OOP and trying to cut down on some costs, so I suggested we do Ohana since it was fixed price and included everything. Well it turned out we both loved Ohana. We couldnt wait to go back.
We arrived a few minutes early and checked in. The area around Ohana and Kona is a madhouse at dinner time with tons of people standing around waiting. Last time we had taken our buzzer and headed downstairs to wait. Well that was a mistake because apparently the buzzers dont work downstairs (not that they actually tell you that!). We ended up waiting for like 1.5-2 hours; they said they buzzed us and that the buzzer must have been out of range downstairs. So this time we stayed upstairs.
We looked around at the gift shop on that level, took a peek at the Kona menu (going there later in the trip ), and then luckily found an empty seat. We waited another 10 minutes or so while seated. While there we were directly in front of the check in podium where we people-watched. Mostly we just saw people bumping into each other and parents scolding their children. There was one interesting couple both GF and I noticed though. They walked over and got in line to check in and I saw that the male half of the couple kept putting his hand on the female parts back. She would move or turn around to look at something and still his hand would be therejust resting lightly there as if he had to be touching her at every moment. I didnt really think anything of that, but then I saw his hand start to drift downwards to her lower back and maybe even lower and press in a little. At that point I was thinking, Is that guy groping her butt? It was kind of hard to tell whether he was touching butt proper, or whether it was still technically her lower back. (GF: Oh, it was definitely butt.) She was wearing a long dark straight dress and was a bit chubby so I wasnt able to make out exactly where her hips/butt started. I figured it must just be her lower back, though, since people just dont grope each others butts while standing in line to check in at Ohana!
Well I was wrong. A minute or two later I noticed that the womans hand had begun to drift down the mans backall the way down until it was very obviously on a cheek. Then she squeezed! Hard. So hard her fingers kind of disappeared a bit between the butt cheeks. I thought, Wowthat was some butt grab! Are these people honeymooners or something? Why are they groping each other in public? I also noticed a child about 10 years old who came over and talked to the man for a minute. I assume he was their son. All I can say is, geez that poor kid must be scarred if he has to watch his parents molest each others butts all the time. If they do that in public, Id hate to see how explicit it is in the kitchen at home!
Back to the food. The meal at Ohana is all you care to eat and includes: skewers of meat (steak, turkey, sausage, and pork), scalloped potatoes, fried wontons and dips (peanut sauce!), light dressed salad greens, mixed veggies, sweet and sour shrimp, and sticky wings. They also made me their usual vegetarian entréea lo mein type noodle dish with various stir fried veggies (snow peas, carrots, tomatoes, red peppers, onions), fried tofu, and miso broth that comes in a press pot that you pour on top. Dessert is a pineapple coconut bread pudding that comes with ice cream and caramel bananas foster sauce on top. GF and I also both had iced teas to drink (no specialty drinks were included).
