Food

Hawaii is a melting pot, of food that is. With influences from the Chinese, Filipino, Hawaiian, Japanese, Korean, Portuguese, Puerto Rican, Samoan, Thai, Vietnamese and others, visitors will enjoy this fusion of flavors from around the world. Favorite meals are generally accompanied by rice, a simplified version of American macaroni salad, a fried egg, and gravy of a Loco Moco. Japanese style Tonkatsu and the lu'au favorite Kalua Pig will melt in your mouth. Other Pacific Rim cuisine include dishes such as Lobster Springrolls, Vietnamese Chile-Lime Marinade Chicken Salad, Garlic and Chile-Baked Dungeness Crabs, Teriyaki Salmon and Black Sticky Rice Pudding.

At nearby Kailua Kona, visitors can experience one of the finest markets in Hawaii, the South Kona Fruit Stand. Juicy tangelos, breadfruit, Tahitian limes, cherimoya and guanabana are only a few of the island fruits you will enjoy on a warm, lazy day.
