Tasting Kauai

Happy Aloha Friday! We had an exceptional week and hope you did too. Last Sunday, our article “Crunch time with carrots” ran in The Garden Island newspaper.  I hope you get a chance to try the recipe and if you can use Kauai Juice Company’s kiawe-aged balsamic vinegar, all the better.

We didn’t have a story in the Wednesday edition. TGI is going from two food writers to one and there was a miscommunication. Our last story will be in this Wednesday’s edition before our “Tastes of Kauai” column gets moved to Fridays TGIFriday pullout. We’ve cooked up some tasty stories and we appreciate you sticking with us! Continue Reading →

Ron Magrin, owner of the Koloa Deli, will be hand making meatballs with Kauai beef for his delicious Meatball Subs ($9.25). The meatballs will be folded into a 9-inch house made roll and topped with house-made marinara, provolone cheese and Parmesan cheese. You can get them this Monday, April 15. They’ll be available for as long as they last! Here’s my MidWeek Kauai story about Koloa Deli.

The Eastside is under new ownership and was closed for just over a week for remodeling. They are open now, and the menu is the same. The owners don’t have plans to make major changes.

Papalani Gelato has opened a new Anchor Cove location that features a full coffee bar. Each day a unique coffee grown, harvested, and roasted within the state of Hawaii is featured. The coffee is available by the cup or to purchase by the bag and there is a full range of espresso drinks, freshly brewed coffees, tropical teas, and frozen blended drinks. Freshly baked muffins, scones, cookies, and gluten-free coffee cakes from Passion Bakery in Kapaa are also available. Passion Bakery owner Michael Sterioff uses all natural and organic ingredients as well as local fruit. Papalani Gelato will also serve two types of oatmeal for a healthier breakfast option.
