Yahoo's current official comment, of course, isn't very informative:
Yahoo has a rich history of supporting open standards, such as OpenID and Apache Hadoop, as we believe industry collaboration is beneficial to the developer community and the Web as a whole. While we are evaluating OpenSocial as an emerging standard, we do not comment on speculation or rumors.
The New York Times, however, says otherwise. An article yesterday states that "Yahoo intends to join OpenSocial." Interestingly, the Times says that this isn't an act of defeat for Yahoo, as most of us would assume when Yahoo signs on to a Google effort five months later.
Instead, Yahoo's participation would be a boost for OpenSocial by adding the largest user base to date. That's right, more than MySpace's 100+ million—Yahoo's Wikipedia article (citing Alexa stats; and how's that for reliable data?) says they have 130 million unique users each month.
Maybe today's the day to buy a lottery ticket if Yahoo following in Google's footsteps is a good sign for Google's project .

"Just received the cards; they were better than expected. Thick, quality paper. I splurged for the iridescent paper but due to the background color of the card, the pearlescent quality does not show up, so I wouldn't spring for that for this particular card. The regular card stock will do. Overall, happy with the card."
"I loved tiny prints designs and the choices they allowed for editing your personalized invites. The quality of the product was excellent and it was delivered in a timely manner. I definitely will be using them again!"

Xtensive new language features
Eclipse's JVM language Xtend reaches 2.3 M7
Set to make its big splash in the Juno release train, the team behind Xtend have revealed just some of what is new to the JVM statically typed language ahead of the big day in June.
Xtend, for those unaware, is quite proud of its Java heritage compiling to readable code, but intends to put its own spin on things by cutting out a lot of the noise (boilerplate code) that can often be infuriating with Java. It also brings in features made famous by the likes of Groovy, Scala and Smalltalk to provide a comprehensive Java experience, crucially without having to leave Java behind.
Xtend 2.3 M7 outlines just some of what is new for the language as it prepares to debut as part of the release train. Aside from around 150 bug fixes, there's a variety of new annotations at your disposal. The new annotation @Property brings forth a Java-Bean-style getter and setter (if the field is not final) for an annotated field.
class Person { @Property String firstName @Property String lastName }
Another annotation @Data turns an annotated class into a value object class, which means all fields are flagged as final and that getter methods will be generated (if not existent). Plans are also afoot to include project-specific annotations like @Delegate but this won't make into the release in time.
@Data class Person { String firstName String lastName }
There's a raft of compiler improvements as well. You can find more information in the New and Noteworthy section, which runs through all the M6 enhancements too, with basic functions such as debugging, type and call hierarchies, refactoring. The path is set for the final release then as Xtend looks like it will fit like a glove seamlessly into Eclipse's JDT.

How long does it take to walk your dog? Fifteen, twenty, maybe even thirty minutes? That's more than enough time to squeeze a small work out in. Walk your dog more than once a day? Even better! You may have never thought about it but walking a dog is already great exercise. You're outside. You're moving. Enjoying the scenery. On it's own it's not a strenuous workout out by any means, it's simply a walk. What if you could change that. Do something that turns said workout into something more. Guess, what? You can! Just follow these steps and turn your typical dog walk into a Spartan inspired dog walk! As we reported once before, dog walking is actually very good for you!
Step 1: Purchase a hands free leash, there are many out there that allow you to fasten the leash to your waist as opposed to holding it in your hand. Here's a few "Best Seller" options on Amazon.com (If you don't want to purchase a hands free leash, another option is to wear a weight vest in Step 4).
Step 2: Fasten the leash to yourself and your dog.
Step 3 (Optional): If you can, find a partner, friend, or someone else to tag along to make it more fun.
Step 4: Grab a sandbag, log, kettlebell, or any other heavy/awkward object. Fill milk jugs with concrete or grab a bucket or two filled with gravel or sand. You'll figure something out. You're a Spartan!
Step 5: Take your dog for a long walk around your favorite neighborhood, park, or wherever you'd like to go. Make sure you and your dog are well hydrated and go for as long as you both can handle.
Step 6: When the going gets tough use teamwork to pass the sandbag (or whatever you brought with you) to your partner. If you don't have a partner…suck it up buttercup.
Step 7: Make this part of your dog walking routine. Whenever it's time to walk the dog, grab an object and get moving. You'll be amazed at how much your core is getting worked. As things get easier, up the weight.
It's that simple to turn your typical dog walk into a Spartan style dog walk! Now what are you waiting for get out there and give your pooch some exercise! As always, we'll see you at the finish line.

Garth Lagerwey has read all the draft projections saying Real Salt Lake has needs here or there.
But it sure doesn't look like RSL has many, if any, ahead of Thursday's Major League Soccer SuperDraft in Philadelphia. The defending Western Conference champs, who came within a penalty kick of the 2013 MLS Cup crown, enter this year's draft with 26 players already on the books.

That's a number which is unprecedented in the club's previous nine seasons.
So what should the No. 18 pick in Thursday's first round of the SuperDraft expect should he have a Claret-and-Cobalt scarf draped around his neck? Simple: The kid's a long shot.
"I don't think we've ever cut a first-round pick," said Lagerwey, RSL's general manager, "but I would say that that could be in play."
RSL is in a position most clubs would like to be in, having sustained significant success in 2013 — albeit coming up a bit short — and having been able to retain the majority of its roster that qualified for two Cup finals and won the West.
However, attacking this draft will be different for Lagerwey and the front office. This will be the club's first SuperDraft without Jason Kreis as coach since 2007. Former first-assistant Jeff Cassar will experience his first draft as coach, which Lagerwey said played a large role in retaining much of the last year's club.
"We wanted to try to preserve as many options as possible for Jeff, so he can go into preseason and make his decisions and we can react off of those," he said.
But that doesn't mean RSL isn't searching for a diamond in the rough at No. 18.
"We won't have a choice but to take the best player available and hope they'll make our team better," Lagerwey said.
In a sense, RSL already has its star draft pick in Jordan Allen, a product of the team's Arizona academy who signed a contract with the club Dec. 31. Allen, who starred with the University of Virginia last fall, is considered one of the best up-and-coming U.S. prospects and can be developed as a defender, midfielder or forward.
"We would have had no chance of getting [Allen] at 18," Lagerwey said. "We got our pick already."
Which will make the task for the 18th pick — and whomever RSL picks with their third- and fourth-round selections next Tuesday — that much more difficult to crack the squad. Lagerwey said the club will enter its preseason two-deep at every position later this month in Casa Grande, Ariz.

- A top peer on the A2 sceneA2fanVIPDined on 9/19/2014In an increasingly outstanding and competitive restaurant scene in Ann Arbor, Vellum continues to keep apace. This was another return visit to Vellum and the food and service remain excellent. Tuna lovers should NOT pass on the starter and the risotto was top notch. I love the flexibility Vellum provides like corkage fee if you want to bring your own wine for special occasions (as we did) and splitting entrees.Special Features:
- Bad service, poor executionA2foodloverDined on 9/19/2014We had high hopes for Vellum, but having been three times now and experienced the reality we won't be back. Service was, at best, indifferent. We were consistently hurried along, with our main course being served well before we had even finished our salads. We had to send back a water glass and a bread plate for being dirty - then had to remind the server to bring replacements. Worst of all was the food: the kale salad was nothing more than poorly chopped kale leaves drenched in chili oil. Over spiced and bland at the same time - not a winning combination! With so many good places to eat in Ann Arbor there is no reason to settle for over priced and mediocre.
- Delicious mealCindyDFDined on 9/19/2014Great night. Excellent food. Great selection!!! Delicious cocktails.Special Features:I would recommend this to a friend.
- come back, peterTrinaDined on 9/14/2014after several months of fudging -- "Peter is in Greece! Peter is traveling the world for even lovelier foods!" -- Vellum finally admits that he's left. Sadly, it shows. The food is a bit worse, the fabulous deserts are gone altogether, and the place is emptying out.... it's a shame, I loved Vellum.
- VellumNeighDined on 9/7/2014I was really excited to dine at Vellum. I heard great things and decided to go for a special occasion. Unfortunately things were not what we expected. The service was incredibly slow. The waitress didn't take our entree order until after we got our appetizers, and it took a very long time for the entrees to come. There was a hair on the appetizer and they gave cold bread on butcher paper after the appetizers were eaten as well. The poor service kind of hung over the whole meal. The food was cooked well with generous portions, but nothing special or unique. We were ready to run out before dessert, feeling pretty bummed out about the whole experience. There was nothing that made us excited about our experience there. Live and learn!
- Exceptional!WalkerGirlDined on 9/6/2014From presentation to the satisfaction your taste buds thank you for! Vellum is a one of a kind gem. The food is exceptional and thoughtfully prepared for a very enjoyable dining experience. When you can take a bite of food and your eyes pop open and your jaw about drops and you get this "Wow" affect, you know you are being blessed with an uncomparable treat!Special Features:
- Not what it wasa2bcdDined on 9/6/2014Originally this was the destination place for that special occasion. Extra-ordinary and creative menu and outstanding classy service. Menu is now much more informal and pedestrian. Very nice place, but not what I would recommend to people looking for a place to celebrate .Special Features:
- hijackDined on 8/31/2014We sat in the front, taking advantage of the happy hour. Beautiful windows with streeet scene. Great happy hour wines. Food was outstanding, especially the beets, brussel sprouts and spicy sausage pasta. Blue berry pie was nice though we found the crust a bit dense, not flaky enough. Service was extremely attentive and helpful.Special Features:I would recommend this to a friend.
- Terrible, Never AgainJohnZDined on 8/29/2014I was hoping for a great experience after reading a lot of reviews. Unfortunately, the overall experience was horrible, and I will not be going back. Notes from my evening: 1. It took the waitress nearly 20 minutes to serve a glass of wine. When the pour came back, it was a ridiculously small amount. 2. We ordered a cheese plate, a slim selection of only two cheeses. 3. After waiting nearly 30 mintues for my food, it came out cold. The chef reheated it for me , but likely in the microwave, since it very quickly lost its heat again. 4. The original bill was apparently not correct. The waitress "corrected" the amount for me, adding another $15 to my bill without first telling me. She ran my card and did not bring back a new itemized receipt.
- keithandrebeccaDined on 8/27/2014Incredibly mediocre food. Pork in the pork confit tacos was so SALTY.The crab cakes so forgettable.The bartender had the most idiotic answer for an ingredient in a cocktail but then they have an interesting cocktail menu trying to keep up with the current interest in mixologist-type cocktails. The answer to "what is fenugreek glom me syrup like" was "sweet." It's like she didn't even KNOW what it's like. And the cocktail was overwhelming lemony-I couldn't finish it. And they were out of three of five beers on tap. The two white wines I tried were awful. Sauvignon Blanc is usually a safe wine to order. It was AWFUL. It must be bottle that would go for $8, and they are selling it for 11/glass. They have no local or any kind of food claims.
- OpenTable Diner Since 2011Dined on 8/26/2014Continue to go back and glad to continue to be a patron!
- GreatMJCASRomaDined on 8/26/2014The service was great. I requested the chefs table or a table upstairs looking out to State Street. Since we went on a Tuesday, the upstairs was closed, and there was no chefs table. The FOH manager greeted us (as well as a hostess) at the front door and addressed the issue for us immediately. Service was pretty good and the food was excellent. I have no issue with the pricing at all, it was great. The Sea Bass was the best thing on the menu that I had, and we had a bunch. The carrot cake for dessert was very good as well. We drank and ate pretty heavily and walked out with a tab under $300.Special Features:
- Ann Arbor AmbiencekerncampDined on 8/25/2014Lovely exposed brick restaurant with good continental menu options and outdoor seating.Special Features:I would recommend this to a friend.
- Vellum - Ann ArborFoodieDined on 8/22/2014I had the risotto and my husband had the pork sandwich with triple cooked fries...the couple sitting next to us recommended them both. We weren't disappointed. DeliciousSpecial Features:
- Excellent mealAmi22Dined on 8/20/2014We had an excellent meal, the menu has a nice variety of small plates as well as entrees. Our cocktails were absolutely delicious with wonderful presentation. Our service was also outstanding with very nice suggestions from our waiter as well as being very attentive. Highly recommend Vellum.Special Features:
- Wonderful mealHelenVIPDined on 8/16/2014We had a fabulous meal. This was our second visit. I love the Brussels Sprouts. They are delicious!!!!Special Features:
- Never better ahi tunaHelenVIPDined on 8/2/2014The ahi tuna was like butter. It was amazing. I loved the kale salad and the Brussels sprouts. The silverware thing is a little wierd along with the bread on the paper. But I would definitely go back agsin!!Special Features:I would recommend this to a friend.
- Mediocre service, mediocre foodOakheartDined on 8/2/2014I generally avoid eating on Main since they tend to be overpriced. Vellum came with a good rec, so I made a reservation on OpenTable. When we got there, it was slammed and guess what... they lost our reservation. Although I had the confirmation email, hostess told us it would be a 1 Hr wait. After making a fuss the hostess begrudgingly sat us. Ok, these things happen, but your first response should be to seat a customer who had a reservation. Our waiter was polite, but not very helpful. Clearly knew nothing about wine and just offered that we could taste whatever glass we wanted before getting a pour. The small plates we ordered were quite good, but the entrees were meh. And the bill was 10% more than far better restaurants in the area.
- Best burger in Ann ArborLondonycVIPDined on 7/24/2014Do not miss the bacon jam!!!!! Brussels sprouts are divine.Special Features:I would recommend this to a friend.
- good service&ambiance, okay valuegoinoutDined on 7/24/2014The ambiance of the restaurant is great. We had a group of seven and Vellum accommodated this well, including very attentive service. Overall everyone seemed pleased with the drinks but disappointed in the food. The prices were steep for what you get and it wasn't anything spectacular. The fried brussel sprouts were tasty.Special Features:
- Great place to sit and chat.new2A2Dined on 7/22/2014Many places in A2 are too noisy to have a reasonable conversation. Not Vellum. Wonderful atmosphere and not too loud. Food was very good and service was quite attentive (maybe slightly too attentive but it's hard to complain about great service). One person in our party of 3 thought the prices were high but the other two thought they were as expected for downtown A2. It would be nice to see food deals included in the happy hour.Special Features:
- Good food but...RobertoDined on 7/12/2014The food was quite tasty and well portioned. The service was a bit odd…apparently they don't give out silverware until the dishes arrive. But if not everyone ordered salad or appetizer and we wanted to share, there were no forks, etc. Bread and butter delivered but again no knives, and a sparse portion of butter. The wine was poured for me (male) to taste, and it was quite good but the server poured me a glass and set the bottle down without pouring any for the remaining guests (two women).Special Features:I would recommend this to a friend.
- Deliciously prepared foodA2DinerDined on 7/12/2014Positives: The food. Mac 'n cheese with good balance of cheeses and just enough to be delicious without overwhelming. Best salmon I have tried in this town--crusty on the outside, perfectly (but not overly!) done on the inside. Interesting twist on the Risotto without deadly bland seasoning that sometimes characterizes it. The dessert I'd skip in the future--strawberry shortcake--just okay which was a disappointment given the quality of the other menu items. Negatives: The presentation. Examples: the bread comes in a tiny paper that looks cheap, the Mac 'n Cheese came in a ramekin with no plate under it so if something toppled, it went directly onto the tableSpecial Features:I would recommend this to a friend.
- Glad we tried it!de45nDined on 7/10/2014We had never heard of this restaurant until I looked on Open Table. All of the reviews looked good and so we booked a table. The décor was charming and staff was friendly. They had a good size wine and beer list, which was nice. We tried a few of the small plates and were not disappointed. I will definitely dine here again.I would recommend this to a friend.
- Vellum - excellentOpenTable Diner Since 2014Dined on 7/9/2014First time Vellum diner - the restaurant was excellent in every way. My wife and I thoroughly enjoyed the atmosphere, service and ambiance. The food was fantastic and the short rib to die for. There was a nice selection of wines and great beer selection. The menu was varied and we both liked the small plate selection which would be great for late night dining and drinks. Being on Main Street adds to the energetic atmosphere and we both are looking forward to our next visit.Special Features:I would recommend this to a friend.
- Great meals, but lackluster dessertOpenTable Diner Since 2013Dined on 6/27/2014I have dined here 3 times now - first meal was blah, 2nd meal was AMAZING, 3rd meal was really good. But for all 3, the desserts were so-so, to downright inedible.Special Features:
- restaurant weekyup13Dined on 6/27/2014enjoyed sitting outdoors for a restaurant week dinner for two. the waiter appeared flustered and busy but did his best to visit our table several times. he did neglect to mention that dessert was not include in the prix fixe and was an extra charge (and we missed the fine print on the menu) so it was a bit of a surprise when the bill came. He comped one of the two desserts, which was convenient because the brownie i received was so dry and crumbly that i would not have paid for it anyway. kale salad and brussels sprouts were delicious. pork was too salty. overall a positive experience, and i imagine it would be even better outside of restaurant week.Special Features:
- OpenTable Diner Since 2010VIPDined on 6/27/2014Way too much chile in the Kale salad. I think it is a bit too hot if a bite of Kale salad causes throat to close up. When this was mentioned to the waitress, the response was that the description of the salad included the word chile. The pork tenderloin was great; however, many of the other sides and main courses were average.
- Well executed menuSassafrasDined on 6/26/2014During restaurant week: Pea-mint soup absolutely incredible! Fried beets still managed to seem healthy...highly reco for an appetizer to share. Mushroom tart delish, but the crust was a bit crackerlike. Black garlic gnocchi were the best gnocchi I've ever had!!! I hope that's always on the menu. Caesar salad was good but not great.....we're always searching for a great caesar and this one was about 3/4 there, just needs some addit tweaking.Special Features:I would recommend this to a friend.
- Great food, service not up to parmimia2VIPDined on 6/25/2014We were a group of 6 and all of our dinners were superb. The service did not match the food. When I arrived, I was told by the hostess that I was the first of our group of 6 and I waited for others to arrive. With 4, we asked to be seated and another hostess checked and could not find our reservation (although the first had found it easily) and they hurried to set up a table for us. We waited some time for the rest of our party, only to discover with a call that they were waiting for us at a table upstairs, and had been there since before I arrived. Our server was lovely but could not make wine recommendations, didn't bring bread, served some in a course while others waited, was not in sight for long periods of time.Special Features:
- MushroomsOldManDined on 6/24/2014The regular dinner menu is by far better than the restaurant week menu. A little heavy on the Kale but the mushrooms on all of our dishes were amazing. We tried a simple Riesling that wowed us all. Georg Albrect Schneier 2012 Niersteiner HippingSpecial Features:I would recommend this to a friend.
- Highs and lowsOpenTable Diner Since 2009Dined on 6/24/2014Dined here during Restaurant Week. The kale salad and the gnocchi were very good. The bar dessert might have been good if the brownie hadn't been so dry. Service was spotty - we had a long wait before our waitress came to get our order, but after that the food came out at a reasonable pace. It felt like they may have been understaffed. The most annoying thing about the whole experience was the noise level - my dinner companion and I had to shout at each other in order to have a conversation. Most unpleasant.
- Food and wine was greatYukkoDined on 6/23/2014I went there for dinner with my friends. Food was very impressive great. If you loves European food difinetely I will recomend you. There is one thing disappointed me was service. She seems like not polite and knowledge is not enough to recommend wine.Special Features:I would recommend this to a friend.
- Nice "restaurant week" menuike2389Dined on 6/23/2014Went for dinner during restaurant week. Nice selection. Parsnip cakes were very good, as was the mushroom tart and salad.Special Features:
- Good food, bad serviceOpenTable Diner Since 2012Dined on 6/23/2014The food was very good, not the best I've had, but very good. The service was pretty terrible. We were ordering off the restaurant week menu, and they were clearly unhappy about that. At one point they tried to clear my wife's plate while she was still eating to bring out the next course. Things got a bit better when we ordered dessert and coffee, but overall we were really unimpressed with the service - probably some of the worst I've had anywhere.
- Terrific mealTomHDined on 6/23/2014Wonderful service and a wonderful meal. Highly recommend Vellum.
- goodeatsDined on 6/23/2014This was my groups first dining experience at vellum's. The food was imaginative and very good, the wait staff were knowledgeable and helpful, the noise level for our table upstairs in an alcove area was moderate.Special Features:I would recommend this to a friend.
- Excellent food location and servicefoodlover123Dined on 6/23/2014Many people I know still haven't tried Vellum yet (despite it being conveniently located on Main Street!) Their happy hour specials are amazing and the food, wine/cocktails, and service are consistently excellent.Special Features:
- Restaurant Week tryoutBethVIPDined on 6/22/2014Tables are small and the dining space is very open. Greeting and service was friendly and eager to serve. I ordered the RW menu. Food was very hot and fresh, with good timing on service. We were unimpressed with tastes of most of the dishes. Individually, the flavors were good, but I would have ordered differently if the descriptions on the menu didn't leave out that the gnocchi is FRIED. When I see gnocchi on a menu, and it doesn't mention that it's prepared any other way, I would expect to be safe to assume the dumplings are steamed or boiled. Ruined my meal with heavy greasy brussel sprouts first, then fried gnocchi for main dish and dessert was macerated strawberries. It was all just too heavy. I will give it a second try, later.Special Features:
- VellumKateDined on 6/21/2014Vellum has really come along since it opened, the service has improved and the food is very reliable- I am hooked on the Tagliatelle with bay scallops. My only complaint would be that on almost every visit they have been out of at least one wine we tried to order. This really isn't a big deal unless you have your heart set on something specific. They do have a fair wine menu and it would be nice if they began offering wine flights with their meals. My other complaint is that drinks come very very slowly, not the wine but any mixed cocktail. It really is a great place to taste new dishes, and if you want something familiar, the burgers and fries are absolutely wonderful. We are looking forward to trying brunch!Special Features:I would recommend this to a friend.

Before & After: A Kitchen Overhaul Complete with Painted Cabinets
The Color Cure
Having recently moved into a house that was covered in various shades of yellow-based tan complete with brass fixtures and yellow oak trim, a kitchen overhaul was the first to-do on the homeowners' list. What the room had in store for them: A standard builder chandelier hanging where the homeowners imagined something more their style and a kitchen's worth of cabinetry needing to be painted along with the taupe-colored walls.
Painting the cabinetry white, the walls a cooler white, replacing the light fixtures and adding dramatic drapery did the trick! Read on for the details of this overhaul, including what advice Laura, the homeowner, is sharing with The Color Cure!
The Color Cure: How long have you lived in your home?
Laura: Almost 3 months (this is our first house).
The Color Cure: When did you overhaul the space?
Laura: IMMEDIATELY! We had the cabinets painted the day after we closed on the house. The house is only 4 yrs old, so we didn't feel the need to do any major renovations right away. However, the entire interior of the house was painted various shades of a yellow based tan. The wall color along with very warm cabinetry and a lot of gold/brass hardware gave a very monochromatic feel to the kitchen. And not in a good way. So, that needed to go. Immediately.
The Color Cure: How long did it take?
Laura: We decided that painting our kitchen cabinets ourselves would be taking a risk. Neither of us know what we're doing and it would be an expensive project to mess up. So we found a company on Angie's List to come paint the kitchen cabinets the day after we closed on the house. It took them about 2 days. Once those were finished we painted the walls in one evening, after our daughter went to bed. So, really just a couple of days.
The Color Cure: Where did you find your color and design inspiration?
Laura: These were actually the same colors we used in our wedding! I love the look of a white kitchen. And I love pops of color and bold prints. Green is my favorite color, and I never tire of black and white. The contrast is just so striking. Seeing before/after shots of other people's homes and projects on Apartment Therapy aways gives me endless ideas, as well!
Having the kitchen white will allow me to change the accents in the future, when we tire of what we currently have. As far as what we have now, I found the light fixture at CB2 and knew it needed a place in our home. The fabric on the window and door wall are from Ikea, the kitchen table and chairs are from Crate and Barrel. I just kept stumbling onto things that I loved, that I was pretty sure could work together. The inside of the window sill is painted the same grass green as the chairs. That was something we figured could either look awesome or be a total mess.
The Color Cure: How much planning did you put into the project?
Laura: I don't spend a lot of time second guessing my choices. I find something I like, and I go with it. And thankfully my husband is usually willing to go along with whatever I have in mind. So this was a project that was put together and finished within the first weeks of moving into our new home. The kitchen is a place where people inevitably end up gathering. I knew I wouldn't be happy unit it was a room that reflected our style and personality. So it was the first room we took on when we moved in. And now it makes me happy when I walk in everyday!
The Color Cure: What was the most challenging part of the project?
Laura: Painting is one of the easiest ways to make a dramatic change in a room. This project was fairly easy because changing the color of the kitchen made a huge impact on the space. So for us, I think the biggest challenge was not getting paint everywhere!
The Color Cure: Did you learn a new skill during your home improvement project?
Laura: We learned that we get a much cleaner line when we just free hand around the edges instead of using paint. Plus it sure saves a lot of time. Taping takes forever!
The Color Cure: Are you happy with the outcome?
Laura: Very. We will eventually change the countertops, flooring and add subway tile. But we are very happy with how quickly the kitchen could be changed and made clean, fresh and current.
The Color Cure: What, if anything, would you do differently next time around?
Laura: I would have looked at our different shades of white in different kinds of lighting. In the late afternoon one of them looks much warmer than the other.
The Color Cure: If you had one piece of advice for Apartment Therapy readers, what would it be?
Laura: Choose what you like. Don't second guess all your decisions. It is your home, and if you love it, then it is never wrong.
Do you have a Before & After or a Color Inspiration Story to share with The Color Cure? Go ahead and get your entries in soon. We can't wait to hear from you!

Looks great. Love the pop of green again the black and white.
It looks beautiful. good job!
Love it!!
wowza! nice.
The new lights really sell it. I would have preferred just a wee bit more of the green though.
Quite a dramatic change --- for the better. I wonder how it would have looked with cabinets painted a bit more of an ivory or warmer white? Right now, the cool white kind of fights with the warm countertops, although I understand the owner intends to change those out.
The project really looks good. Painting dated cabinets can be such a time consuming project if you do it yourself. But the end result is usually great and has a lot of impact. When we bought our house and had no money to spend on renovations, this was a quick and easy way to make a splash without spending a lot.
Well done!
Absolutely in love with the uneven light fixtures.
Nice! I would consider painting the appliances white too, so they don't stand out as much and replacing the mini backsplash with a proper backsplash, but it already looks a lot better!
I was praying you didn't do anything "creatively stupid" as some bathroom i saw some weeks ago.
You had some great stuff to start with and you did!!!!, this looks, fresh, amazing, young, and for what i can see... a budget well under control!!!
Amazing job!
I'm all for keeping the natural wood but when you do something so well, like this, it just trumps all preconceptions.
I'd like to see more, do you have a flickr page or anything?
HOORAY!!!!!!!! The wonders of white paint and good taste. Makes me wanna weep, it's so refreshing.
Wow. My first thought was that the before wasn't too terrible but the after is fantastic! Great job!
The curtain ties together the black and white, of course, but allows the counter top to become benign, receding into the background. Those three colors provide the perfect support for that pop of green. Delicious.
It looks fantastic! I love that light fixture, too. You've done an amazing job and should be very proud!!
Looks great. What paint color did you choose for the cabinets?
How much does it cost to hire someone just to paint cabinets...anyone have a ballpark?
It is something I would like to do in my own kitchen but am terrified of messing up myself...
I totally needed to see a transformation like this! I am moving into an apartment riddeled with 1960's "baby-green" and brown. The kitchen is the first on my agenda. Now I feel confident in my attack on olive cabinets!
WOW! I mean that is a WOW makeover. This gives me hope that I won't have to totally renovate a kitchen.
soo much better
I had a very similar blah tan kitchen and did something similar - I had those awful honey colored cabinets and black appliances, but a decent granite countertop with browns/grays. I had the lower cabinets painted a charcoal gray, to blend with the dark range and dishwasher, and had the upper cabinets painted a creamy white. We also had the little stumpy (2-3") granite backsplash removed, and beveled subway tile installed, plus new pendant lights, cabinet hardware, and a work table. It's like I have a totally new kitchen. It wasn't inexpensive, but it was much cheaper than a full kitchen renovation would have been (and only took a week!).
Painting cabinets is by far the easiest way to update a kitchen! We took this project on right when we moved into our house (built in 1912!) and although it was pretty time consuming, it was the most affordable way to get this done! You can see that massive transformation at http://twosixe.blogspot.com/2011/01/house-tour-first-floor.html
Love, love, love the new ceiling lamp.
Where did you get your drapes? They're awesome!
where are you chairs from? i love 'em!
Looks great. I love the light fixture. CB2's Firefly is one of my favorites.
I think the only other thing I would have done is get rid of the cabinet to the right of the window. I don't like isolated cabinets. This one at least has the bulkhead above to tie it into the kitchen. Nice job!
I love the new light fixtures! Gorgeous table and chair set as well. Though I feel that something else could have been done with the cabinets. The white paint makes them look old an cheap, as well as eccentuates the inlaid design on the cabinets that does not go with the rest of the decor.
Looks great! I used to dislike white kitchens, but now after seeing all these before & afters on A.P., I'm loving them! That light fixture is awesome and I love the pop of green in the black and white color scheme. The only thing I would do differently is add some cool hardware to the cabinets. Cabinets without hardware always look unfinished to me.
I just bought a house and am trying to figure out how to update the 80s kitchen quickly and cheaply. This is good inspiration! It's amazing what a 2-day refresh can do for a kitchen. I'd love to see what it looks like once the countertops and the floors are done. I'd probably replace the light above the sink too.
PS… Anyone have any good solution for covering or updating nine recessed can lights? They went a little crazy with those things back in '82.
This is one of the best kitchens I've ever seen! Love it!
Wow, it's amazing what some paint can do!!
Major improvement!
this room looks so much better in white. I'll have to do the same in my own kitchen!! thanks for the idea.
I have those same cupboards and counters! Wish I could get the landlord to agree to painting them white. Your kitchen looks so much better! Love the light fixture. Great job!
INCREDIBLE transformation. Bravo!
I love it! I love a black & white theme with pops of color!
WOW! This house has the same layout as my first home, and it makes me wish I'd put more effort into my ugly-but-solid cabinets. And the black & white looks SO good!
Amazing tranformation!!
Those disgusting cabinets are standard in so many places all over the states. I wish I owned that company that makes them. Of course it looks great. Maybe just adding a little bit more color in a few places in the kitchen would be good.
Looks great! Good job!
Ah-mazing. Love it. It looks so much better I cannot even express it. The light fixture is awesome. All that yellowish brown was gross.
awesome. just awesome!
love it. i am in search of a calendar like in the photo, anyone know where to source it?
I love this!
I'd like to know how much the cabinet painting can cost, maybe AT could ask some money questions in the Before/After, especially in budget-friendly projects
The white makes such a difference!
Thanks for the inspiration.
That dreary kitchen became so light and airy - a wonderful transformation!
Although it sounds like the owner is planning to change the countertops, I really like the contrast of the granite (or faux granite) with the white walls. This was a nice makeover; am surprised at how much more contemporary the white looks considering that the kitchen was very new (4 years old) when they started.
Just love those light over the table!
All it needs now are handles!
It was by no means ugly before, just cookie-cutter.
Great job! Terrific transformation.
I wouldn't change anything else - the countertops and floor look fine now. However it's your home, so best of luck with it.
*swoon!* I love it!
Lamp is from cb2:
Very nice! Still a bit monochromatic, but that's ok. I've been thinking of helping my mom redo her kitchen, which looks a lot like the before. This might just be e kicker that gets that done!
Bee-flower, have you considered painting everything white and leaving the olive? What type of hardware is on there? Are they laminate?
What I like is that you did such a stunning job with the existing cabinets and counters. Less (perfectly good) stuff in the landfill. I'm curious about those magnificent glass lights, and how they're configured on the ceiling – did you take several lights and hang them separately, or is that one unit?
The black accents work beautifully with the black appliances... bravo!
wow- insane what a bit of paint can do!
awesome how you've made a dramatic look change, whilst only actually changing the simplest and cheapest elements. Love how you've made a tired looking granite bench top actually look quite funky with the new B & W colour scheme - well done!
Beauty is in the eye of the beholder. For every person who hated the before, there's somebody out there who loves the look. No matter what you do, someone else will want to change it..and our own tastes may change too. It looks nice, but I didn't hate the before.
Somebody should start a cabinet exchange service -- somebody out there probably has white cabinets they hate and would have gladly traded for your before.
okay. i'm so excited and inspired! our kitchen has the exact same blah colored cabinets, brass light fixtures, etc. thanks for this post and giving me hope! :)
I did this as well. It's completely worth the time and really inexpensive.
Posts like this frustrate me SO much! I see a room I LOVE with perfect details and colors...and then I have to stop and remind myself that I ALSO love my OWN room with the perfect colors and details and I can't have both!
I painted my ugly laminate cabinets with spray paint by Krylon. It provides extremely even coverage. Just make sure to cover everything and take cabinet lids outside to a terrace/balcony if possible.
Thank you for the feedback everyone! I was happy to share what we did with our kitchen, because I think it was a situation everyone can relate to. We needed a change but didn't want to do anything huge or expensive. There are plenty of things to be done as time goes on (hardware, tile, floor, counters, etc), but we are happy with the start we got.
That said, the total cost (labor, supplies, etc) for having the cabinets painted was around $1500. We were afraid of messing them up ourselves, as we have no experience in home improvements. At all.
The chairs are from Crate & Barrel (Felix chairs) the light is from CB2 (Firefly light), the curtains were made with fabric from Ikea (GUNVOR and only $6.99/yd!), the cabinets were painted with Cabinet Coat, in True White. Thanks again for your time and comments!
This is perfect. My kitchen is exactly the before. Copying this with pops of color like this. Our home is brand new, and JUST like each of our neighbours.
For the CB2 Firefly, can you tell me the height of the longest hanging globe? I have seen 26 on CB2 and others have said 39 including the bulb. I have been trying to gauge if it will look ok over our peninsula.
Your transformation rocks. Congrats.
thanks! h

So originally I made a video reply to "how i got through darksouls" on YouTube of me spamming arrows into the zombie dragon in darksouls as a joke. I then thought. Hmm this might transition to flash?
This flash gave me a lot of room to experiment with artstyle and some techniques. such as lighting and the bounce effect.
hopefully this isn't the worst movie of the day.

Common Core Must Be Eliminated
October 4, 2013
To The Reader's Forum: Taxpayers spend billions of dollars on K-12 education, most of it going for teacher and administrative salaries....
I don't see where 50s is playing the race card. If Trayvon was a white boy, would our president still refer to him as "If I had a son he'd be like him?" I know it's a hypothetical question, but in all sincerity, would he? So with that in mind, who REALLY started playing the race card in this murder trial? And furthermore, what business did the president have making a public comment on this anyway? Remember the outcry when Nixon made a public comment on the Manson murders?

threestrikes, did you read what was posted? I'm talking about his "Trayvon" comment. He knew it was racist. Why do you think he added "How does that bite you?".Eagles, what does Travon have to do with hating Obama? 50s4ever constantly makes racist remarks and then claims that he is the victim of liberal racism for being called out on them. Look up some of the statements he has made about Hispanics.

Monkeyboy, are you talking about his statement "the pot calling the kettle black?" Is that the racial statement you are referring to? If you are, that's a wild shot in the dark. P.S: Don't accuse me of bringing gun rights into the conversation.

I didn't see any indication of a racial or prejudicial statement. Color does not matter, at least not to me. What is nauseating is the accusations directed toward conservatives of racism because they are anti-Obama. Nonsense. All of it.

If he was not referring to race then what? His job on a security watch? His haircut? Don't be deliberately obtuse.

madman said,"I hear no mentionof blame on parents now a days. There are a small percentage of bad teachers, but a larger percentage of bad parents. Teachers now a days not only have to teach, but also be the parents, the disciplinarians, the guidance counselor, etc. Their job should be to teach. These kids are so screwed uo when they get to school, the job of teaching is almost impossible. Blame the parents for not parenting. And by the way, I am totally against tenure. And instigator, how would you like to take a 25% paycut? Do you have 4 YR DEGREE WITH A MASTERS?..." I agree with you 100%. I have several relatives and friends that are GREAT teachers and have been forced by society to raise the children now a days rather than do what they have been trained to do...teach. Parents, I think it's about time you start acting like your title and raise your own children!

That's the pot calling the kettle black. If you don't know anything (obviously)about Chicago schools, you're an idiot for saying I'm lying about them. I have a son. He doesn't look like Trayvon. How's that bite you.

Emelye, it's more about assuming responsibility and control over important issues not killing them. I like Bryan and his merry band of patriots. Sorry you do not, but that's why you are Emelye and I'm Carla. It makes life more interesting. :)

Bryan Thomas' blog, "The Bad of Patriots," which was established to (among other things), "combat the parasitic spread of liberalism," is hardly an unbiased and credible source of facts, carlaw. While there are definitely problems with our educational system today I cannot imagine how eliminating the Dept of Education and its funding of schools on a national basis would help. Why is it that so many right wing ideas are about killing programs and systems they don't like instead of reasonably attempting to fix them?
2 Agrees | 3 Disagrees | Report Abuse »
I have to disagree. Read this post: "Of all the departments of our federal government, the most pointless and unconstitutional is the Department of Education. Since it was created back in 1976, test scores have shown no substantial improvements compared to all the money we are spending. If we are looking for ways to cut back our debt, one of the first places we should look is the Department of Education. The Department of Education's budget has increased over 300% from when it was first established. Are test scores higher? No! Even if we go back to when the Department of Education was started in 1979, we still don't see any significant increase in test scores in the US, let alone compared to the rest of the world. It's sad that so much taxpayer dollars is going into a system that really isn't making our children more educated to compete in a world market." B. Thockey

50s, Credence made those silly statements so he should defend them. I am tired of looking up things to disprove the lies that some of you post here. If you think any of it is true, YOU look it up. You can start with YOUR lies about the Chicago School System.

I voted. Six times! AHAHAHAHA!!! But seriously, 3 strikes, I agree that we should give it time. If it's as bad as the conservatives say then let it fail and end it. If it works, then hurray, but leave it alone and see if it's going to work. I think conservatives are more afraid that it will work than that it will fail.

President Obama's health law and the "individual mandate" requiring residents to have health insurance, more than 160,000 others who use health-sharing ministries will be exempt. They're one of nine exemptions built into the health care law, covering everyone from ILLEGAL immigrants to PRISONERS; those who have religious conscience objections.

- Sushi with a vieworegonVIPDined on 9/18/2014Great outside dining along with very good selection of fresh fish.Special Features:
- Top notchOnvacationDined on 9/16/2014Everything from the moment we walked in was perfect. We were celebrating our 25th anniversary and were sat a one of the best tables for the sunset and told to feel free to walk around for pictures. We were never rushed. Our server, Wayne, was excellent. He had a sense of humor and personality yet was professional. He recommended out appetizer and both of our entrees. They were excellent (as I am sure everything else is as well). We both only ate half of our meals and took the rest for the next night (prices were up there, but they didn't skimp on portions-well worth every penny).Special Features:I would recommend this to a friend.
- Amazing sunset viewPowayL4Dined on 9/9/2014The view was great. The service was good. The food was ok. We have eaten here in the past and the food was much better then. The ribs didn't have much flavor. The salad was good. The tengu was good, not great. For the price of the food we expect much better food.Special Features:I would recommend this to a friend.
- NinailicDined on 9/7/2014My husband and I loved it and went back the evening after. Great food, fresh and light, unique wonderful flavors. Beautiful views and modern design. Highly recommend!Special Features:I would recommend this to a friend.
- Good food and great viewalkoiv24VIPDined on 9/1/2014Dinner here was very good and the sunset from the table was excellent.Special Features:
- Good Sushi and entreesCostaDined on 8/30/2014We enjoyed fresh sushi along with drinks at the bar one night - delicious. Another visit we did the pre - fixed 4 course dinner. Great value and perfect portions. Not bad for a restaurant in the Hyatt. We tend to prefer locally owned restaurants and unique menus, but this did not disappoint. It does not stay open later either, like most restaurants in Maui.Special Features:I would recommend this to a friend.
- Loved it!SukiDined on 8/27/2014Great food, setting & service. Will go back again!Special Features:I would recommend this to a friend.
- Great view, good service, meh sushiBrianSDined on 8/27/2014The view is breathtaking and the service is very good. My fiancé and I were celebrating our honeymoon. Thus, we wanted a romantic table at sunset. The Japengo staff did an awesome job of finding us a great table. We wanted to love Japengo; however, the sushi list lacked variety. Also, the choices included a lot of fried seafood. We would possibly go again, but only for the view and service.Special Features:I would recommend this to a friend.
- MauiIibbyVIPDined on 8/24/2014Always a pleasure, Japango is one of the best dining spots in Maui...service is superb, the food is excellent with many items offered with a lesser price on smaller portions that are ideal for sharing. High five to Japengo!Special Features:I would recommend this to a friend.
- Rolls are perfectShadowDined on 8/15/2014The California roll and spicy tuna roll are on par to any of the best Japanese restaurants in Seattle. I hope Japengo opens a restaurant in Bellevue WA. Thanks for the perfect evening and dinner.Special Features:I would recommend this to a friend.
- Overlooked Sushi BarDenverTravelerVIPDined on 8/12/2014While the crowds go up the road to Sansei, treat yourself to this super friendly sushi bar. The Itamae here can serve up the traditional sashimi or nigiri with the best, or make something very tasty and unusual for the more adventurous. Just say "Omakase" and enjoy the ride!Special Features:
- Japengo Funluvfood22Dined on 8/8/2014First time here an was already stunned by the amazing view from the table. The service was decent, water was always filled. In regards to the sushi, the rolls were pretty good. Shrimp tempura was fine had plenty of that in California. The dragon roll was very filling and tasty. Spicy tuna roll was the star because it ha enough heat that didnt overpower the taste of the tuna. Sashimi was amazing. The salmon and ahi ahi were fresh and melts in your mouth. For dessert we got the malasadas. It was ok. Denser than the ones you would get from Yipee's but the yuzu sauce and the Kona chocolate sauce were tasty. Overall it was a great meal!Special Features:I would recommend this to a friend.
- Experience lost with H'cane IselleRodneyfromNJDined on 8/7/2014Meal may have been better if not for storm closing in, so restaurant that is normally an open space was closed off, that is half the experience. Food was okay - short rib was somewhat over cooked and dry.Special Features:
- Wonderful dining experiencevisitorDined on 8/6/2014What a find! The atmosphere, the service and the food is all top notch. We enjoyed the assorted sushi rolls,with great suggestions from our server. We are going back.Special Features:
- Best sushi everZeusylocks11Dined on 8/5/2014Definitely the best sushi we have ever had. It literally melts in your mouth. We both agreed that we would come back on our next trip even if we were staying an hour away. Highly recommend!!Special Features:I would recommend this to a friend.

- Good menuOpenTable Diner Since 2013Dined on 8/2/2014There is a wide variety of Asian dishes offered here. The staff is very friendly. The bar is lively and friendly too. This is a very popular restaurant and is located in the Hyatt hotel. Definitely make a reservation before you go.Special Features:I would recommend this to a friend.
- Great service, quality presentationAlwayshungryDined on 8/1/2014Awesome staff! The fantastic, elevated beach scenery for sunset viewing (while having a glass of wine) was amazing. The pork was a little too salty so that's why 4 stars but still edible.Special Features:I would recommend this to a friend.
- Fantastic experienceMauidiningDined on 7/31/2014Great food, the sushi roll was delicious and our server was very friendly and knowledgable. Would definitely go againSpecial Features:I would recommend this to a friend.
- Highly Recommend JapengoCelesteDined on 7/20/2014My family & I were in Maui for almost 2 weeks. Since we stayed at the Mariott along the boardwalk we enjoyed walking to dinner every night. Early on in the trip we heard that Japengo was the top rated restaurant for sushi. We were not disappointed. We enjoyed the food so much that we went back 2 more times. Twice we had Dave as our server and he was efficient and knew about everything on the menu. I highly recommend this place.Special Features:
- Hands down, best dinner in Maui.JennyDVIPDined on 7/20/2014We tried Japengo after reading the OT reviews, all positive and decided to give it a try even though we weren't sure about a hotel restaurant. We need not have been concerned, Japengo is gorgeous. The decor and views are spectacular, particurlarly at sunset and the entire staff so friendly. Live music and cocktails were amazing and the sushi could not have been more fresh. My husband had the Manilla Clams to start and the broth was so good we wanted to drink it. The Pho was some of the best we have had and our server, Bobby was impeccable. We loved our dinner so much we are going back tonight, which we almost never do when on vacation. Best dinner we had in Maui, by far and happy to enjoy our last dinner on the island there again.Special Features:I would recommend this to a friend.
- Awesome food! Joey is the manDakineRaulDined on 7/19/2014If you love sushi, this place is awesome. It's got an open view to the ocean and beautiful Maui sunsets. Joey was our server and was able to provide exceptional service. He was also able to make great recommendations. The Alaskan Cod appetizer was to die for. There was also an appetizer with hamachi, watermelon and lychee fruit pearls that was super tasty. Presentation was fantastic, I had to take pictures. We loved it! Thanks Joey!!Special Features:I would recommend this to a friend.
- Just Another Day in ParadiseOpenTable Diner Since 2014Dined on 7/16/2014Having always been a major sushi fan, I was hoping that the offerings would not disappoint. They didn't. As fabulous as the sushi (and presentation) was, the icing on the cake was the beautiful oceanside view and the exceptional, friendly service. Fine dining al fresco, beachside in Maui at sunset. All-in-all, this was an exceptional dining experience on all levels.Special Features:I would recommend this to a friend.
- Great sushi restaurantCaliforniaof5Dined on 7/14/2014Looking for a great sushi restaurant in the area of our resort and we were pointed in this direction. We were not disappointed and will return during our next visit to maui.Special Features:I would recommend this to a friend.

- OpenTable Diner Since 2005VIPDined on 7/8/2014This is a fantastic restaurant if you are in the mood for sushi. The sushi is one of the best I've had. Great view of the sunset and excellent service.Special Features:
- Gorgeous views!GoToMauiVIPDined on 7/6/2014If you're staying in Kaanapali, take the time to enjoy the walk down to the Hyatt. Begin by having a cocktail and enjoying the view. That alone is enough for 5 stars. The service is excellent-- friendly and attentive. My husband had the filet which he liked a lot, and my son and I had sushi (dragon, rainbow and tengu rolls and eel sushi). The soft shell crab inside the dragon roll was burnt, so that ruined that roll for me, but the other rolls were good. We finished with a choc chip martini for my husband (delicious!) and Kaanapali pie. The dining experience was wonderful.Special Features:I would recommend this to a friend.
- Japengo disappointingMauiFoodLoverDined on 6/30/2014First let me say that the restaurant was very attractive with terrific views of the ocean. The service was good. The problem was the food was overpriced and left a lot to be desired. For the price and view I would go to Mama's Fish House. The food there doesn't fall short of expectations.
- Great food & sushi!011411VIPDined on 6/29/2014We came here twice during our stay, we tried the Blackened Ahi roll, Lahaina roll, Spicy tuna roll, & we were addicted to the Maguro(thick slices of Ahi) We also ordered the Korean Seafood Pancake, Ribeye & the surf & turf was a special for one of the nights, NO complaints on the food, everything was delicious!!! Strawberry Shortcake & malasadas were good desserts too! Service was great!!! We will def. be back!Special Features:I would recommend this to a friend.

- Perfect dinnerLuvMauiDined on 6/29/2014Best dinner, ambiance and service. We dined outdoors with a breathtaking view of the sunset. Had the 1/2 portion of Miso Glazed New Zealand Salmon with stir fry vegetables and white rice. Every bite was moist and rich in flavor. Also had a 1/2 portion of the Japengo fried rice with pork, shrimp, egg and veggies which was delicious. Had the Tengu Ka'anapali Pie which was amazing for chocolate lovers with a brownie crust, brownie crust, banana, macadamia nut ice cream, whipped cream, caramel and chocolate. The service was excellent and our waiter very attentive which made for a wonderful experience.Special Features:I would recommend this to a friend.
- expected so much moreWGfoodieVIPDined on 6/28/2014Based on the reviews fom other diners I expected a phenomenal dinner. Great view although a bit of noise from the hotel pool below. The miso soup was subpar, ribs were solid and the sushi good. I am from California so the standards for sushi are high. But for the price, even for Maui I thought it wasn't worth it. Service was very good.Special Features:
- Just WonderfulMargieDined on 6/26/2014We never tire of Japengo when we come to the island. This time we apparently weren't starving because we ordered a starter, Korean Seafood Pancakes, and were almost full when we were done. It was delicious and filling. I ordered dinner, but some dinners come in full and half orders and I asked for a half order of China Town Chow Fun, ate half of it and took the rest home for a great lunch the next day. We left completely satiated and the tab was less than $50, including something from the bar. Incredible. All the while the view is incredible, no matter the location of the table and our waiter, Bobby, was great.Special Features:
- Great choiceGreenchefDined on 6/19/2014This time we didn't go for the sushi. We ate the clams (delicious!) and then shared the seafood curry dish... Outstanding!Special Features:
- Ecletic FoodHighwaymanVIPDined on 6/18/2014The ambiance of the location was great! The Korean Seafood Pancake was truly outstanding! We had various types of rolled sushi, which were all excellent. I'll be back again!Special Features:I would recommend this to a friend.
- Just as we remembered, maybe betterVIP1000dinesVIPDined on 6/18/2014We dined last night at Japengo Maui Hyatt in a romantic table on the patio. So beautiful the 180 degree view for sunset. Sashimi devine, ribs and seafood noodles delicious. My Husband loves the malsades with dipping sauces because they are amazing. Service was great by Bobby and crew. Another evening to remember in Maui.Special Features:
- Success!CorkedVIPDined on 6/17/2014We had the Hamachi Kama, Hamachi and watermelon, mango shrimp salad, clams, dragon roll, and char su fried rice. All were great.Special Features:I would recommend this to a friend.
- Disappointed with the qualityFoodieonislandDined on 6/14/2014The view was beautiful but other than that we won't be going back to Japengo. We live on Maui and were staying at the Hyatt for a getaway weekend. We wanted a nice, romantic dinner with different flavors of food-since Maui doesn't have a whole lot to offer in this department. After being seated we weren't greeted by the server for probably 10 mins and the food was very mediocre. $39 for chow fun that was greasy, over cooked fried rice-we felt like we could have gone to any Chinese restaurant for this quality of food but for a 1/4 of the price. What a shame. Next time we will stick to Merrimans!Special Features:
- Fantastic restaurantBeachinDined on 6/5/2014Japengo offers excellent food in a relaxed, romantic atmosphere. It is located near the pool and the ocean so in addition to music (sometimes live), the sounds of waterfalls and the surf rolling up on the beach will add to the ambience. The restaurant is laid out very well and can accommodate whatever type of dining experience you are looking for whether it's drinks and snacks, full meal, social interaction or quiet romance. The service staff are friendly and take good care of you. The food and drinks are excellent and offer both unique and traditional fare.Special Features:I would recommend this to a friend.
