Baker's Heart is a subsidiary of Touch A Heart Catering which is a non-profit organization. I love…read moreto support local and especially it's for a good cause. You can order the Baker's Heart cookies and desserts through the Touch A Heart website and can even order their Kapuna & Family Meal Program. Their weekly three meals pack for $25.50-$30.00 provides you meals especially during this COVID19 Pandemic. Every week there's new menu and it can be picked up on Wednesday between 11am -1pm at Kalihi Union Church. Sometimes they offer the meals and bake goods on a Saturday too. I've ordered once for my parents and I but a lot of my church friends who are Kapunas, have been buying every week and been enjoying the separately packed meals and one large salad for three meals. For the present time the pick up is at Kalihi Union Church on N King St near King/Umi Street since they use the Church's commercial kitchen. You can pay by Pay pal on line or by cash at the time of pick up. Pick up location is at the Kalihi Union Church Gym area in the back. No need to get off your car. Enter from the entrance near the First Hawaiian bank side and drive all the way in the back and as you turn right along the building is where the pick up spot. You can exit by the other entrance/exit by the traffic light near Jack in the box. You can read more about the organization through their article featured on Hawaii Business. Baker's Heart which I mainly doing the review for is only $5 for the cookie pack or 2-pack scones, loaf or individual dessert! The cookies especially is unique and not sold in stores so it makes people happy to receive them as gifts. I haven't tried them all but Baker's Heart have many variety of cookies made of quinoa and flax seeds and they even have a pack of individual desserts such as brownies, lemon bars, scones, Okinawan sweet potato, haupia, tiramisu and more. They make perfect gifts, omiyage, favors, office gifts and for events. It's only $5! Right now the hotels are closed and they are usually do business with them! You won't be disappointed with their bake goods! You will feel great supporting them knowing you are helping a good cause. Their mission is "to transform the lives of those who is facing barriers to employment by providing vocational training in a healing and nurturing environment creating pathways to job placements. " Proceeds will help expand their culinary training & apprenticeship program. I just love the espresso with white chocolate chips. The cookies are uniform in size and is pretty crispy since they are on the thinner side but the quinoa and flax seeds makes it so different and crunchy. The cranberry one is good and one with the ulu flour is great since it's gluten free. The peanut butter one was okay in my opinion. Scones was good and comes in a pair in a nice container. One day I need to try the individual desserts like tiramisu and brownies! Cookies make great gifts because of the shelf life. Cookies taste yummy cold when I keep them in the refrigerator :) They are still working out the catering side Touch A Heart but wanted to share mainly on the Baker's Heart side. See their website Or can email with questions to info@touchahearthawaii.org. Thanks for reading my review ! :)

Shopping at the Windward Mall Farmer's Market in Kaneohe, O'ahu, Hawai'i…read more.. I was walking along when I saw a long line for one of the vendors. It was a business called: Artisan Cottage Sourdough Bakers I quickly read some reviews and found out that they're quite popular and sell out at times, so I jumped in line. Service was very friendly and helpful! I got the last loaf of Spinach Garlic & Onion sourdough bread... and a Cinnamon Raisin loaf. Slicing the loaves up at home, I chomped on the Cinnamon Raisin sourdough first... delicious and chewy! There were so many raisins in the bread! The Spinach, Garlic & Onion sourdough had a more subtle flavor. I fried a slice in butter and made it crunchy and better! I heard the owner tell another customer that this bread makes great French Toast. He also recommended slicing up the loaves and freezing them so they're ready to eat! I'll go back on Sunday between 10am and 2pm for the sourdough bagels and the Honey & Molasses sourdough loaf!

Dear friends of mine planned a day for us with Lisa, who made everything look effortless! From the incredible setting in Lisa's spacious kitchen to the actual sit down meal served with a stunning view of Diamond Head, ocean and sky --- it was flawless! Our custom plant-based menu began with making dessert. Why you ask? A chef knows you start with the item that takes the longest to make. Everyone got to help make the strawberry peach fruit crisp, from slicing the fruit to making the crumble topping. The forbidden black rice with herbs, cashews and coconut was next, followed by green beans with a toasted sesame "dressing" and the ubiquitous miso soup with wakame, shimeji mushrooms and silken tofu. Meanwhile, Lisa also whipped up pan fried tofu with a scallion chili ponzu. Deeelicious!! Lisa patiently and eloquently explained the ingredients and where she sourced them. We tasted an amazing sesame seed found only in Kyoto and a flavorful soy sauce with a round mouthful that made all others pale in comparison. Needless to say we were awestruck and enlightened. Every bite was savored and every flavor stamped in memory! I'll not soon forget this amazing experience with a trained nutritionist who turned cooking into a culinary adventure! Even the pictures may not tell the whole story as all the ingredients held their own and shined in a way that turned the ordinary into extraordinary. Thank you to Lisa and my dear friends Tracy, Cheri, Laura, Susan and Velvet for the Best. Birthday. Surprise. Ever! Highly recommend!

Lisa was accommodating with a family member's allergies and helped us pick the perfect menu for my picky eaters. The kids had the best time making gyoza!

If you are visiting Oahu - this is one of the best experiences you can book. If you live here, the view alone is worth it! I will definitely be back with some friends to celebrate their retirements.

Don't know why my husband and I have been on a major Mexican food kick lately. Each week we have…read morebeen exploring different local eateries and sampling their take on Mexican cuisine. This week brought us to Freshoverflesh. Having settled on being full on flexitarian, I don't mind the use of meat substitutes such as soy or tempeh as in the case of today's giant order of tacos. Both the "chicken" tempeh and soy "steak" tacos were yummy and flavorful. They had a nice kick to them, but not overwhelmingly spicy. Since we brought the tacos home, my hubby added a little sour cream on his tacos, and I squeezed on lots of fresh lime to add even more freshness. I especially liked their tortillas. Would love to try out more of their menu options in the future.

The buffalo sauce and ranch dressing will satisfy your cravings without leaving you with the heavy feeling. Keep an eye out for an appearance at the Sunday vegan night market off Maunakea. You may even luck out and find desserts and fresh juices as a perfect complement.
