Go for the pupus! So unsuspecting from the outside, but the ambiance inside is modern and chic, yet laid back. Get a bunch of pupus to share and you won't be disappointed. The clams are a must!!

Hawai'i is deep into the acai trend, and if you're looking to try an acai bowl, this is the place. Get the mana cove bowl, it's the best on the island. The veggie wrap is amazing. Live music at night

They're famous for their cream puffs, but I love them for their 24hr old-school diner. Aunties that have been there forever serving up delicious and inexpensive late-night grub. Closed Mondays.

Again, don't believe the hype! Pretty much anything you read will tell you Giovanni's is the best shrimp truck on North Shore. Nope. THIS is the truck. Cash only, coconut and spicy garlic are my faves

The go-to beach for something local and not swarming in tourists. In the beautiful shadow of Diamond Head, it's right across the street from Kapiolani park and never as crowded as Waikiki.

The trail head to this hike is at the end of my street. Make it as long or as short as you like - all the way to the crater for insane views, or just enjoy any of the 3 beautiful waterfalls on the way

Shopping
Corner store/best shave ice on island. I know all the rage is about Matsumoto's on North Shore, but I'm a firm believe that it doesn't get better than this. Be sure to go to the original on Waiola St.
