spelling problems aside - View this location on map The olfactory tour of Chinatown kicks up a notch near the Red Elephant Café (808-545-2468; www.rredelephant.com), a short two blocks from Little Village. Coffee beans rule here, and the java is outstanding. Sink into the sofa and amuse your bouche with raspberry-cabernet sorbet. And there may be live music, a poetry reading or a slack-key-guitar virtuoso in the cafe s adjoining theater. New York Times 1144 Bethel Street, Honolulu, HI Shopping
