First time…read morecoming here and been wanting to try their rainbow popcorn since it had been a long time that I've eaten any. I was greeted by a nice lady, on the quiet side. The rainbow popcorn is already pre-bagged and comes in 3 sizes - small, medium, and large. I opted for medium for $5.69. I thought the price was fair and reasonable. Had some when I got home and it was just as how I remembered - ono! It was a little more on the sweet side than I had expected, but good. They also sell popcorn lei and cotton candy as well as different flavors to add to your popcorn. There's something for everyone.

I LOVE popcorn. I've always passed by and resisted the urge to buy a bag since I thought I could…read morejust make it at home. Eventually, I gave in and now it's my favorite treat! They're a small kiosk inside Pearlridge, right next to TJ Maxx. There's usually a few minute wait since the popcorn is made fresh to order and there's only one employee, but it's definitely worth the wait! So far I've only tried the volcano, which is a hurricane mix with kakimochi and furikake. The popcorn is always crisp and evenly buttered with the perfect kakimochi ratio. They have 3 size options - you'll want to get the large because they're so good you could finish half the bag in one sitting. I had a friend try some of my popcorn a few days later and was surprised with how fresh it still tasted! In his words he said it was "to die for" lol.

DANGEROUS! So dangerous... maybe it is from Kalihi... Anway, I was told Popcorn here is inspired by Chicago Style popcorn. They use mushroom style popcorn. While the Butterfly variation is good, this popcorn has more meat to it. Everything is good. I haven't had one bag or cup where I didn't finish it. I haven't had one bag where my dad didn't ask for more. He's like a popcorn junkie. They are always coming out with unique flavors. I was particularly surprised by the Okinawan ube flavor they made for Okinawan Festival. You can also ask for plain popcorn Go visit them, you will see!

Stopped by Aloha Creamery, and I haven't been here since it was still Samurai!…read more The staff was incredibly friendly and welcoming, which always makes a place stand out. Service was quick and easy, making it the perfect grab-and-go spot. The soft serve is my favorite, and it definitely did not disappoint. I got the swirl with vanilla and strawberry. It was just as good as I remember it. Creamy, smooth, and just the right amount of sweetness. The small size was still pretty generous. There are lots of local snacks and goodies available for purchase. I haven't tried it yet but the customizable popcorn is such a fun touch too. Overall, such a great spot with kind staff and delicious treats!

So on! They have so many choices for ice cakes and popcorn. They also have two soft serve machines…read more One with classic blue vanilla and strawberry.

When we walked in, we were greeted by the owner. He was very friendly and easy to talk to. He came out to explain the types of jerky and the "false crack" jerky was a silent spicy where it won't hit you till later. That was enough to scare me into not trying it lol. There was a wall of beef jerky chips. They also sell popcorn, local snacks, and shirts. There's a large selection of jerky and they have a new brisket jerky that looked really yummy. I went for safe options since I can't handle spicy. I got the paniolo ranch (he explained that his wife likes to crumble it and use it as a salad topping) and the garlic crunch (popular out of the non-spicy optionEach package of jerky is vacuumed sealed and comes with a huge piece of homemade jerky. Each beef jerky chip is $12.95. The brisket is $24 because it's double the weight of the chips. Buy 6 bags of jerky and get $1 off each bag.

After satisfying my smoothing cravings at Hang's French Cafe & Smoothies which is right next door you know I had to give them a visit and as I walked in I just didn't expect to see so many options to neatly displayed at this cool shop. One wall is filled the snacks the local love and the easy grab and go does take care of cravings instantly along with some Pop Mart items though isn't quite the snack we sure have been eathing up the rave that's been keeping us guessing ourselves. Many of their items are crafted like specialty popcorn, Hawaiian Frost Soft Serve, Shaved Ice, and even açaí bowls. Keeping the coolness after my smoothie I decided on some dipping' dots as I stared into the display case with the various flavor offerings it was the "Cool Mint Crunch" oh yeah the minty coolness really hit the spot and bits of Oreo was so yummy as it kept me still for a moment as I enjoyed my treat before I continued on my errands taking this me time was just right. Thank you!

I usually get the Volcano (butter, furikake, mochi crunch) or Japanese Matcha (kettle corn with butter, furikake, matcha powder, mochi crunch). Those two are my faves. Today, I got the small Volcano $6.59. I'm happy that they always pop fresh popcorn when you order it. I definitely notice the difference. I'm not sure what kind of kernels they use, but the popcorn is always huge and fluffy. The lady who helped me today was very nice and friendly.
