The 50 Best Things to Eat in Honolulu Before You Die
"Laie Subway offers dozens of attractively priced sandwich combinations, soft drinks, juices, chips, soup, and cookies for hungry eaters. A favorite whether you dine in or take out. Now serving breakfast!"
"There’s no corporate connection, but Zippy’s does for Hawaii what Denny’s does for the mainland: offers comfort foods at reasonable prices. Menu items, however, tend to be Hawaiian, Korean, Japanese and Chinese. You can get Spam, saimin and many of the other specialties that make Hawaii a smorgasbord of flavors."
"The exoctic beauty of the asian women is mind boggling but had gone there for chicken. I had hired a tour guide. Someone was born there to show me the sp..."
"Café Glacé prepares its thick Sambazon acai smoothie bowl with toppings like granola, banana, strawberry, blueberry, honey, and coconut. Not only is the bowl sweet, it is loaded with antioxidants and fiber, which help with heart health, digestion, and aging. Read on for more sweet treats from Café Glacé, including sweet crêpes and gelato."
"Cafe Glace Hawaii has over 30 different ice cream and artisan gelato flavors daily, along with made to order crepes, health bowls, handmade pastries, and coffee."
"It took them more than 20min to have ours ready, even if they were giving the açai bowls to other people."
"A post shared by CJ Weiss (@coryjweiss) on Jul 31, 2018 at 11:44am PDT. Over at the Ka'au Crater Trail, what most people do not know is that they are are only a comfortable drive of 15 minutes away from Waikiki. If you are looking for something challenging, this feels like a hike you should sign up for because, at the end of the hike, you will be greeted by views of the mountainous regions."
"No, I am not suggesting you take on Diamond Head with your little ones, but there are a lot of wonderful hiking opportunities that don’t cost you a thing!. There are also some that will require the use of a car or TheBus, but by stacking activities together, you will more than make up for any bus fare or gas you may have to spend in the experiences you get to have!"
"Kayaking to the Mokulua Islands is a fun adventure. To learn about the cultures of the Polynesian Islands, spend the day at the Polynesian Cultural Center. The island villages and presentations start at noon. You could stay through the day exploring the villages, enjoy a luau and then catch the excellent evening show Ha: Breath of Life."
"The Mokes, as the locals refer to it, is a phenomenal destination to visit. It is a mile and a half away from the Kailua Beach Park off the Oahu's shore. Na Mokulua, meaning, The Twin Islands are a pair of small islets - Moku Nui and Moku Iki."
"This 1.7-acre park is located on a peninsula just south of town and offers spectacular views of an iconic landmark- an offshore islet complete with a beautiful arch in the middle, as well as the Mokualai Islet Seabird Sanctuary. Take some time to marvel at the waves crashing against the rugged cliffs as you ponder the legend of “Laniloa the Mo’o” (giant lizard) and his role in the formation of the small islands in the area. (We’ll leave you with that teaser so you can read about the legend once you get there- it’s located on a granite plaque mounted on a 6-ton lava rock.) Simply put, the views here are phenomenal and not to be missed."
"Crashing surf, a lava arch and a slice of Hawaiian folk history await at Laʻie Point. The tiny offshore islands are said to be the surviving pieces of a moʻo (lizard spirit) slain by a legendary warrior. To get here from the highway, head seaward on Anemoku St, opposite Laʻie Shopping Center, then turn right onto dead-end Naupaka St."
"A post shared by Hawaii Forest & Trail (@hawaiiforest) on Feb 22, 2019 at 9:04am PST. Another challenging yet promising adventure is the Aihualama Trail, where once you reach the top, you will be rewarded with a picturesque and breathtaking view of the mountainous area against a blue sky. If you are lucky, the fog that appears from time to time makes it a picture-worthy spot and most importantly, makes the hike much more bearable and fruitful."
"I can literally spend hours in the Nohea Gallery, perusing the endless creations made by over 400 Hawaiian community artist being represented in this special Oahu shopping gallery. I’ve personally taken a liking to the Norfolk Pine wood bowls that illuminate beautifully in the light. I personally bought a few of these wooden bowls for my own home."
"4 km from city center 49 out of 58 places to visit in Honolulu. Sprawled over 5 acres on the Pali Highway of Honolulu, Queen Emma Summer Palace was built in 1848 and served Queen Emma of Hawaii as their summer retreat. Known as a historic landmark, Queen Emma Summer Palace is an aesthetic museum displaying the ancestral possessions of Queen Emma and the Hawaiian royal family."
"Built in 1847, the summer palace and home of Queen Emma and King Kamehameha IV has been restored and offers a glimpse into the lifestyle of the Hawaiian monarchy."
"Located in Makiki Heights, the second location of the museum is the Honolulu Museum of Art Spalding House, which is a true hidden gem. Visit Honolulu Museum of Art Spalding House is included in the ticket to a visit Honolulu Museum of Art the same day. Both the museums are quiet places, peaceful and beautiful but they are different in many other ways."
