The risk of fine dining is that sometimes it isn’t fine and not worth the $. In The Wooden Crate’s case, even the drive from Wailea to the restaurant is absolutely not worth it. Driving to the restaurant, being at the restaurant, leaving the restaurant, everything felt like I’m living the Get Out experience. As…
