Ranging from reviews of fine dining establishments to shopping tips at City sponsored 'open markets,' anyone with an interest in exploring beyond the well known parameters of Roy's and L&L will surely discover a hidden gem or two that brings to life the remarkably diverse and colorful assortment of food options in Honolulu.

This review is from: Food Lover's Guide to Honolulu (Paperback)
Anyone visiting Honolulu for either the first time or a repeat trip has to take this book with them. The best foods in Hawaii are the local eats. Both home style or Hawaiin Style cuisine this book will lead you to all the best places. And if you have the luxury of your own kitchen you will also have the best places to buy fish, farmers markets and my favorite Plate lunch and Malassadas.
Informative and interesting to read with the bonus of a few choice recipes.
