The papaya salad was so fresh and at ($9) for a whole quart so affordable and easy to share with friends. The papaya stand was my favorite one as she makes the salad fresh in front of you. The purple tapioca potato pudding was so dense and interesting, really rich and lovely to try. I was also blown away by the macadamia nut croissant ($6), the croissant itself was fine, flaky and well baked, but the macadamia nut butter frangipane filling for the croissant stole the show. It was so decadent and sweet I savored every bite of the croissant! The marinated goat cheeses from the goat cheese stand were the most delicious goat cheese I've had in my life. Super creamy, luscious, silky and with interesting flavors. I grabbed two spicy goat cheeses I was so obsessed. There is so much to see eat and try!

The prices were kinda pricey but competitive, they gotta make $ so you're paying for convenience after visiting the falls and wanting a fresh refreshment. $10 coconuts, that they open up after drinking so you can eat the meat. $8 for a bag of sugarcane but it had lime in it, which we didn't really care for. $8 bag of cut up pineapple, which was our favorite, nice and sweet and cold There was a nice sit down area to eat at multiple picnic areas and a spot to take silly photos. Parking was limited but there wasn't too much people there so we got a parking spot after someone left. I'd give it a 5-star review but I think they could've gave a small discount for buying more or if you're kama'aina..

Thery were all good. He even asked about our preferences, so as to narrow down his recommendations. I was particularly intrigued by one flavor that included whiskey. When all was said and done, we'd ordered a boxful of eight jars to be mailed to our home, which arrived just a couple days after we returned home. Great little business, great experience.
