I absolutely love Waiahole Poi Factory it's one of those true local gems that feels like home the…read moremoment you arrive. Everything tastes authentic and full of aloha, but my favorite has to be the poi ice cream with warm poi at the bottom. That mix of warm, earthy poi with cold, creamy ice cream is something so unique and unforgettable. It's the kind of dessert you can't really find anywhere else, and it really shows the beauty of traditional Hawaiian food with a modern twist. The whole experience feels special, from the food to the laid-back, old-style atmosphere. Please open more locations in Honolulu town we need this kind of local flavor closer to the city!

Yesterday, my boyfriend and I ate at Waiahole Poi Factory in Windward Mall. We both ordered the…read morecombo plate with laulau and kalua pig. Unfortunately, we were very disappointed with the food. The kalua pig was dry, and the laulau lacked flavor, rice was hard like it was sitting in the pot all day. The poi was white with chunks throughout it and did not have the fresh taste we were expecting. Overall, the entire plate tasted like it wasn't fresh, and the poi was especially disappointing. We had heard good things about this place from friends and were excited to try it, but our experience did not live up to the recommendations. Sadly, we will not be returning.

This is a very interesting ice cream/boba spot…read more It's actually a pretty small shop, but there are a few bar stools and bar table (6 in total, I believe). Upon entering, there is a table with an ordering menu that you fill out for the ice cream. There are no cones and no "parlor" for ice cream- only written options. The standard flavors of vanilla, creamy strawberry and chocolate are available as base choices. There were two "special" flavors of the day that was kona mud pie and another unique option. You can check off on the menu PER item how you want your ice cream in regards to toppings, syrups, in a cup or bubble waffle, single scoop or multiple scoops, etc. Hubby ordered a boba tea that you don't need to fill out on the menu sheet. I'm personally not a huge fan of boba, but he enjoyed it. The lime grape boba tea was what he ordered. As for ice cream, we ordered the following combinations: -Red velvet bubble waffle "cone" with kona mud pie ice cream and chocolate syrup - Classic bubble waffle cone with vanilla ice cream, strawberries and rainbow sprinkles - chocolate bubble waffle cone with creamy strawberry, oreo cookie crumbs and chocolate syrup The red velvet and classic bubble waffle were my favorite. The creamy strawberry ice cream was really good but the other flavors were on the sweet side- no additional toppings were necessary- in fact, I think it was overkill (though beautiful in presentation. I would probably come here again with the kids, but these are a little challenging to eat, in all honesty. The bubble waffle as a cone is nice, but not sturdy. The ice cream is nice, though options of flavor are limited. The ordering process is a little tedious when ordering multiple items, but it's understandable in order to get each one right. Cool stop if you're in the area. We walked there from Whole Foods Kailua main road (back) entrance.

I was crazing something sweet so stopped for some bubble waffle. They also have bubble tea. We…read moreordered the chocolate bubble waffle with ice cream, almond slices, Reese's and condensed milk. Toppings were included in the price. There were plenty of other toppings to choose for free and others with a fee. The waffle came out soft and warm and was tasty. It only came with a small piece of Reese's and we didn't taste the condensed milk until we got to the bottom. The portion is big and very sweet so it's perfect for sharing. The place is small but has some seats inside. There was only a couple in front of us and service was quick. I'll have to try the bubble tea next time.

I originally was drawn to the Sucre because of the amazing artwork I've seen on Cristi's website…read more So we ordered a sample box, which was not only beautifully packaged but packed with flavor. We tried lilikoi cream, guava cream, Madagascar vanilla, and chocolate hazelnut. Let me say, it was a hard choice to make but we ended up picking chocolate hazelnut and lilikoi cream. Both flavors were a hit at the party. Cristi was just amazing to work with. Being able to make a full sheet with 2 flavors and the most beautiful cake decorations inspired by just the invitation. Thank you Cristi!

Birthday treats in Kaneohe, Oahu, Hawaii…read more.. Today (August 8th) is Brown's birthday. He's the bear and main character in the Korean version of Sanrio, called Line Friends. To celebrate Brown's birthday, I searched my Yelp app and found Napoleon's Bakery. Located inside of Zippy's, this bakery is convenient, has free parking, lots of variety, and has friendly service. We chose a Pianomo Roll, a chocolate-filled donut, and a famous Apple Napple. The Pianomo Roll is great for simple palates because it's a soft cake, rolled in butter and granulated sugar! For chocolate lovers, the chocolate-filled donut is just right because the fluffy yeast donut surrounds the rich center to balance it. Rounding out our sugar rush, we got the flakey Apple Napple. The crunchy exterior and fruity filling helped to satisfy our sweet tooths! If you haven't had anything from Napoleon's Bakery, other recommended items are the Long Johns, Chantilly cake, and Dobash cake. If you're celebrating a special occasion, they can write a greeting with icing on the cake! They also have mixes such as cornbread, pancake, and mochiko chicken batter mix so you can enjoy fresh goodness at home or send/bring to friends/family on the mainland. Just browse and you'll find something for anyone!

Cashier was friendly and took my order quick. There were lots of people waiting for their orders, but the other worker making them was making them quickly.

I'm basically a purist and am detoxing from too much sugary drinks so with a simple order thought it'd be fast...Taiwan Soring Tea no sugar no toppings...just tea he says...yup! Gave him $6.30 since it was $6.28 and next thing I know he was checking on what seems like a new staff and didn't give my change lol! It's two cents and not a big deal but just was watching it all was exhausting though it took longer than expected I got my drink and though they do have some seating in this cozy shop I had more errands to do. Great to see this Kaneohe location since the one in town has closed sadly but love to enjoy a simple tea without any sugar is refreshing. Thank you!
