Humuhumunukunukuapua'a Is Hawaii's State Fish. RA Sushi Spring Luau Is Easier To Say -- Even After A Few Bikini Martinis

We became a little tongue-tied studying Hawaiian words and phrases in preparation for RA Sushi Bar Restaurant's Spring Luau on March 22. Ended up bagging the vernacular -- turns out we really only need to know a few key phrases for the Midtown luau. Master the names of tropical drink specials ($8 each):  Bikini Martini, layering Blue Curaçao, Kai Young Coconut Shochu, vanilla vodka, pineapple juice and a splash of lemon-lime soda; Pineapple Express featuring Kai Young Coconut Shochu, St. Germain Elderflower Liqueur, pineapple juice, lemon juice and some bubbly prosecco; and Baby Umami Punch mixed with Southern Comfort, cold sake and tropical fruit juices. Memorize some of the menu specials:  the Tropical Roll with cucumber, mango and avocado ($8); spicy shrimp mixed with masago and mango salsa ($8); pineapple cheese wontons ($7); and spicy pineapple chicken with ramen noodles, bell peppers, spicy chili sesame sauce and black sesame seeds ($8). Tiki torches and a guest D.J. keep things fired up at the 8 p.m. until close party. Wear a Hawaiian shirt or lei and you'll fit right in as you hula away at this big beach bash. More on Facebook.

Lights, Cameras, Action (But No Dinner) As No.246 Closes For Five-Day Filming Then Cranks Up Live Music On Weekends

Dinner and a movie, hold the dinner until after the filming is finished. No. 246 in Decatur will be closed to the public from all day on Sunday, March 25 until 6 p.m. on Friday, March 30 as film crews shoot a movie called A.C.O.D. on the premises. No. 246 Owners Ford Fry and Drew Belline apologize to fans for the inconvenience, and they'd love for guests to come enjoy live music at the restaurant when it re-opens to the public. Music starts at 10 p.m. on Friday and Saturday nights. Be patient and plan your meal in anticipation; menus are on the web. The movie? Initials stand for "Adult Children of Divorce," a comedy starring Amy Poehler, Adam Scott, Jessica Alba, Mary Elizabeth Winstead and Jane Lynch. When it releases, dine at No. 246 then see the movie so you can say "been there, ate that."
