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…

Maui Brewing Co.
605 Līpoa Pkwy Kihei, HI 96753808-201-2237Hours: Monday – Sunday 11:00 am – 11:00 pm After a day of traveling, Autumn and I met up with Kellyne, my sister who lives in Oahu. 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…

Campo at Los Poblanos
August 15th is Autumn and my anniversary. This year Autumn asked me out a week in advance and usually it’d drive me crazy to try and figure out what we were going to do, she’s really sneaky and good at keeping secrets, but this year I just let it play out. All I knew was that I had to be home from work by 4:45 pm, not a minute later. I was home at 4:45 on the dot, though she claims I came through the door at 4:46. I rushed and changed clothes and we were on our way. I wasn’t allowed to look at the GPS or get any…

This restaurant states it’s New York style pizza and is highly reviewed on yelp. Since I was in the area for a while waiting for Autumn to wrap up an event that evening, I decided to give them a try. When I was growing up, I never wanted pizza. If my mom was out of town and my dad was in charge of…

Many people love sushi and there are so many different sushi restaurants in most cities. In the year that we have been in Albuquerque/Rio Rancho, we’ve tried many of those sushi restaurants in this area. We’ve tried many recommendations from friends, yelp, the popular voting site “Best of Burque,” and so on. We found this restaurant when we came up to ABQ to look for housing when…

The counter is surrounded by the restaurant favorites for purchase, which also flows into the dining areas with more shelves of books and selected items. The location has indoor and semi outdoor seating that are very clean, warm, and perfect for either a quick sit down meal or time spent working/reading with a snack and delicious drink. We arrived at 10:30 am on a Friday morning. We’d heard there’s usually a…
