Takeout lunch from Kahala, Honolulu, Hawaii...
I've passed by this business many times and thought it was just a bread shop.
Gosh... it's not!
When my friends, Deborah and Gabriel, got sandwiches the other day, I made it a point to visit Great Harvest Bread and get a sandwich, too!
I told my sister where I was going and asked her if she wanted something. She chose Pastrami and said that her daughter likes ham and cheese.
Okay!
My sister also said that there was a location in downtown that she used to patronize.
Ahhh... that one is no longer there. I saw that there is a second location in Kailua.
This Kahala location is for takeout only. The free shared parking is much appreciated!
Inside the cozy shop, there were two efficient, friendly, hardworking staff. They took turns manning the cash register and assembling the sandwiches.
I got the ham sandwich with cheddar cheese on wheat for my niece and a hummus veggie sandwich on sourdough bread for me.
I didn't see Pastrami on the menu, so I asked for it. The gal asked if I wanted a Ruben and I said, "Yes!"
The Reuben sandwich might be a special order because my sister and I didn't see it on the menu. It was really good with sauerkraut filling and toasted rosemary garlic bread!
My sister encouraged my niece to try the Reuben because she likes tart flavors and our dad liked sauerkraut, too!
Of course, my niece liked it!
The ham and cheese and Hummus sandwiches were excellent also! The colorful ingredients were fresh, and the bread was amazing!
I'll be back! read more
