There's something to be said about tradition.
The first family's annual holiday vacation has once again included, morning workouts at Marine Corps Base Hawaii, shave ice at Island Snow, snorkeling at Hanauma Bay, golf at Mid-Pacific Country Club and Wednesday night, dinner at Alan Wong's.
The popular restaurant is a favorite of President Obama and the first lady.
The couple arrived just after 7 p.m.
Eager onlookers were scanned by Secret Service while the Obamas dined.
It was nearly a year ago to the day when the Obamas last ate here.
You may recall Alan Wong created a menu for the White House luau last June.
