We had a chance to stop by the Hukilau Lanai for lunch, and I’m glad we did! We sat at the bar, next to the pool, with a view of the ocean, and enjoyed a ginormous meatball sub for $5.95. You can’t beat that price for well made food on Kauai! Imagine three tender meatballs nestled in chewy bread that is made in-house, and topped with a savory tomato sauce and mozzarella cheese. The lunch special changes every day. Tomorrow, starting at 11:30 they’ll have Teriyaki Burgers for $5.95. Follow the Hukilau Lanai Facebook page to keep up with specials.

Unfortunately, we had to cancel our inaugural culinary tour. Our deadline to register was June 12, which enabled everyone to gather the necessary ingredients for our guests. When the deadline came, we had one person. Over the next two days we got enough calls to do the tour, but it had already been cancelled.

We are not giving up easily! As my husband reminded me, Thomas Edison tried over 9,000 times before he invented the lightbulb. Our next tour is July 13, and will feature the same line up. For a refresher, check out our culinary tour page.

We are also working on a new north shore tour, and sumptuous details will be forthcoming. Continue Reading →

Kauai Pau Hana for March 23

Happy Aloha Friday everyone! I’m happy to say that all the farmers markets have recovered from the rain that pounded Kauai earlier this month. The markets aren’t as abundant as they usually are because most farmers watched their entire gardens wash away. It will be another three to four weeks before things are back to normal, but in the mean time, I hope you can support them by shopping at their markets before you hit the grocery store. You can read our article in this week’s MidWeek Kauai, where the farmers share how the storm affected their gardens.

I like to add links to articles we’ve done, or websites for the businesses that are listed. In some cases people only have a Facebook page, so I’ll link to that. That way, if you are interested in something, you can learn more about it. For some reason, every time I type the word “Kauai”, WordPress links it to our Farmers Market page. While we are trying to figure out why, don’t click on the link. (Post script: Dan fixed it!) Continue Reading →
