I also love their Korean side dishes (banchan), especially the daikon, which is so fresh and delicious. I find myself coming back at least once a week because everything is just that good. That said, I did have one experience where I found a hair in my marinated kalbi, which was disappointing. Since then, I've been more careful to double check before cooking. I'd really recommend having staff wear hair nets to help prevent this in the future. Overall though, still one of my favorite spots for kalbi and sides!

A variety of unique drinks such as a zero sugar watermelon and strawberry flavored sparkling seltzer water. Thanks Donna O.! Interesting items you won't find in a Safeway. Similar to 1-2 Buy, but on a much smaller scale. Service was 4/5 stars. Nice lady said she will contact me when the ginger plum candy comes into the store! Free parking is limited here. Careful as you enter and exit the parking lot. Big dip. Prices appear reasonable here. Check expiration dates before buying. Ambiance: 2/5 stars. Food: Drinks were refreshing and hydrating. 4/5 stars

Shopping in Kalihi, Honolulu, Hawaii…read more.. Donna O. raved about Provinces Snacks on School Street. I read her review and knew that the shop had some free parking spaces next to the snack/convenience store. One thing that could be improved in the shop is the air-conditioning... I think there was none. Service was very pleasant! The cashier knew Donna when I mentioned her name. Shop keepers usually want to know how you found out about them. Merchandise was plentiful and had much variety. Basic groceries, cookies, candies, chips, etc. were neatly arranged on the shelves. Sanrio character plushies, keychains, and other items were either by the cashier or behind her. I looked at the Sale Items and got the Roasted garlic-flavored peanuts. They were good, but didn't have much garlic essence. LOL! I'll return and try something else like Spiced Braised Beef Flavor Lay's potato chips!

They truly offer just about everything: prepared foods, fresh items, Japanese snacks, desserts, drinks, unique groceries, and so many products you won't find in a typical store. Every aisle felt like a new discovery, and I found myself picking up things I had never seen before. Whether you're looking for a quick meal, souvenirs, specialty snacks, or just want to browse, this place is absolutely worth a visit. The selection is unmatched, the prices are reasonable, and the whole experience is fun and memorable. I could easily spend hours exploring all the different foods, snacks, and drinks they have to offer. A must-visit while in Oahu!

I Heart Marukai…read more Going to Marukai is like being in a candy store for me. Entering the store, my senses are barraged with upteen choices, starting with snacks. Really have to hold myself back as I could subsist on Japanese snacks alone lol. Love that freshly milled rice is available here, amongst the myriad of bagged rice choices. Hot and cold food available here, along with poke bar and food items of regional fairs regularly held here. Getting here may pose a challenge with lane closures due to rail construction. Once you get here, finding parking is usually not an issue (save special holidays). Perhaps tonight I will be dreaming of having a shopping spree at Marukai where I get to consume what I wish to my hearts delight!

There's also recyclable bags available for purchase.
