I hate myself now, I should have purchased it when I was thinking of it, because now I have to drive back to Waikiki to get one! I was thinking $32.00 was a lot for a candle, but technically now it's going to cost more because I have to drive back there and spend more gas money and time...next time, if you want something here, you should just BUY IT! I also wanted to try the ice creams but we were walking around Waikiki and it would have melted. Looking back, I should have just bought it and ate it right there, doh!!! I did not leave empty-handed, however, I did purchase the lavender honey which was INCREDIBLE as I love flower-scented and flower-flavored items, and that's why I know in my past life I must have been an insect of some sort. The service was also very friendly and she was a very sweet girl! RETURN FACTOR: I have to drive back to get the Waffle candle, and the ice cream!

Bee Kind! Love the…read morestory behind the locally sourced honey. So interesting to learn about how the seasonal flowers change the flavors from spring to summer to fall. Samples are available.

There was one employee working at the register and another in the back. The service was attentive and efficient although there was only one person on the floor. They carry a great assortment of mochi and manju, including some varieties that need to be refrigerated. In addition, they offer local favorites like li-hing gummy bears and assorted flavored sembei, giving you plenty of sweet and savory options to choose from. The employee at the register was incredibly friendly and knowledgeable, happily sharing information about the different mochi flavors and offerings. Most importantly, the mochi here is absolutely delicious. During this visit, we ordered a Girls' Day pack and tried the chocolate ganache Oreo flavor which was amazing. The mochi was perfectly soft and paired beautifully with the rich chocolate ganache filling. My friend loved it so much that she went back the very next day to order more! If you love mochi, you really need to stop by. I highly recommended this shop.

I'm so glad I found All Hawaiian Honey on Yelp! I contacted the owner, Linda, and she responded…read moreimmediately. We communicated via text and I placed an order for several items (see the photos). Being that I'm in Kaneohe, we met at Burger King (super convenient). She allowed me to test taste 4 of the honeys, which was very helpful to compare the uniqueness of each. The prices are very reasonable being it's all local honey! The 3 pack of 2 oz. bottles are $9 each pack, 1 pack is $10. Very nicely packaged and makes wonderful gifts! You get the Macadamia, Christmas Berry and Ōhi'a Lehua honeys! I definitely support AHH! Mahalo, Linda!

I currently have 8 different honey jars open in my pantry because I use them every day for various things, but my all time favorite is the All Hawaiian Honey. If they could market the Macadamia Honey into coffee shops it would sell so well. It has a full, rich flavor with no bite or tang and therefore it can go into any drink, tea, or coffee, because it doesn't compete with the flavor notes. It's just delicious!

Street parking is limited and there could be a lineup outside the small but efficient shop. My favorites are the baked manapua, shrimp dumpling and pork hash.

While the steamed ones are great too, there are still other contenders for that. The baked ones truly have no rival though! There other pastries are great too like the custard buns and the custard tarts, although I recently tried their layered rice cake and while huge, they were a but underwhelming. I think that's because I remember the ones my dad used to bring home that had the super thin layers that you could peel off layer by layer and enjoy them for what seemed to be an eternity.

There is a little mix of shade and direct sun so it is enjoyable to go for a leisurely stroll, look at the vendor offerings and get food or snacks.

So many great vendors on both sides of the street. I always go get the green juice, the handmade Chinese noodles are great, and I love the Almond tree toffee. This time I did try the loaded hash browns from a certain stand where I can't remember the name, but it was in the middle. They were amazing and probably the best hash browns I've ever had - crispy on the outside and hot on the inside. My son ended up eating the whole thing! Vermilli is a small booth that sells clothing and I always end up buying something from there. The woman who owns it has been there every time, and I love her designs. Such a great place to shop local and they always have someone playing music!

From the moment I spoke with Peter on the phone to meeting Jason, who came by to assess and take care of the bee situation, they were nothing less than awesome. Jason was personable, respectful, knowledgable and clearly focused on great customer service. He quickly identified what the situation was, where the bees were coming in to our house, gently took care of the existing bees, and gave us recommendations on how we can prevent the situation from recurring. We learned a lot about bees too! We felt like we had a small part in helping out the bee community, even if we had to let them know that we would prefer that they set up house elsewhere...LOL.
