Maui Bread
2395 S Kihei Rd St 117, Kihei, HI 96753808-757-8740Hours: Monday- Sunday 7:00 am to 7:00 pm I love bakeries. LOVE them. This bakery was in the same plaza as where we ate breakfast, Cafe at La Plage. We ordered breakfast sandwiches at the cafe and I went over to the bakery with Kellyne and we picked up a few items we just had to try. Everything in this bakery was made without preservatives, lots of gluten free options, and lots of unique flavors you’ll only find on a tropical island. They had a LOT of choices. I wanted to try them all. Sadly, we decided on a few items for…

Cafe at La Plage
2395 S Kihei Rd St 115, Kihei, HI 96753808-875-7668Hours: Monday – Friday 6:30 am to 4:00 pmSaturday- Sunday 6:30 am to 3:00 pm This breakfast place was quiet and had a small group of what appeared to be regulars that had their dogs with them as they ate out on the patio. After we ordered, a large flux of people filed in and the place became quite busy and a bit crowded. This cafe was right near Maui Bakery, so I left while Kellyne and Autumn awaited for our order and I went to explore the bakery. I love bakeries, it’s a weakness. Our food was ready and we met…

Maui Pineapple Tours: Maui Gold and Haliimaile Distilling Company
883 Haliimaile Rd Makawao, Maui, HI 96768808-665-5491 I’ve done the pineapple tour with this company now 3 times. Each time has been very different and I still would do this tour again in the future. It was a must do when we decided we were going to Maui. The tour has add on options. One add on is lunch at the General Store, which is actually a restaurant now. My family and I have done this option in the past and it was a neat experience and the food was good. The second add on, which is newer, is to the distillery that was built to capture the overripe pineapples…

Maui, Hawaii Day 1 & 2
The Hawaiian islands have been a popular vacation spot in my family since we first started going over a decade ago. It was so enjoyed, my youngest sister, Kellyne, decided to go to college in Oahu. After Kellyne graduated, she decided to stay in Oahu and become a teacher at a local middle school. Which just means, perfect vacation spot that also includes family! Autumn hadn’t ever been to a beach and this was just her second set of plane rides, so it was quite a trip to take on. Never the less, it was also the end of Autumn’s school semester, our anniversary, and her birthday, so there were…

It was late when we arrived and were seated. As we walked in I saw several tables had bread and oil of some sort. I at least was looking forward to that as it’s one of my favorite accompaniments to a meal. We were seated and handed menus. We reviewed the appetizers and decided on the Poke nachos as our waitress highly recommended it and it was unique to this place. It was fairly decent and the fish was very…

There are multiple locations Fudge making class! That’s what we signed up for. I shouldn’t have been surprised to find it was a 30-60 min class which wasn’t about making fudge, it was about flavoring fudge to different types based on personal preference. It was pretty neat and a very smart business model. The class was tucked in a room behind the front of the shop, which had some neat stuff in that little…

We sat at the sushi bar since it was quite a small space inside the restaurant. They were having happy hour, however, it was only $1 -$2 off. We decided to try the Rainbow roll and the Philadelphia roll…

Peace Love Shave Ice
1280 S Kihei Rd Kihei, HI 96753808-264-9090Hours: Monday – Saturday 12:00 pm – 8:00 pm Sunday: 3:00 pm – 8:00 pmAll hours are “ish” per the owner’s signs Hawaii is the best place to get shaved ice. It’s not a snow cone, it’s not a slurpee, it’s something unique. The ice is so delicate and snow like and the flavorings or purées are also unique to this area. Especially if the place is making their own flavorings/purées. You can also get ice cream in the bottom of your cup, usually in several different flavors like macadamia nut, coconut, and vanilla. We checked out Peace Love Shave Ice on Sunday and…

We caught our last flight over to Maui and after we picked up our rental car, we stumbled upon one of the few open late at night restaurants on our way to our resort. When we pulled up to the parking lot where the signs led us, we were uncertain how to enter the actual restaurant. We followed a dimly lit pathway up to where we found the entrance. In New Mexico we have lots of breweries and…

Kihei Caffe
1945 S Kihei Rd Kihei, HI 96753808- 879- 2230Hours: Monday – Sunday 5:00 am to 3:00 pm CASH ONLY My Aunt Cindy suggested we try Kihei Caffe, which was just down the street from her hotel. She said it’s one of the highly recommended places in the area, especially if you’re a foodie. We drove past the building to find a parking spot in the small and packed parking lot next the restaurant and we saw a big line at 9:15 am. Key thing to note here, it’s cash only, so come prepared. The line moves quickly and once you get to outside of the entrance you’re able to grab…
