Food Scene

Best Thai food in Kailua. Nothing fancy, but delicious, tasty, and plenty of healthy options. I recommend the Tom Kha soup (with fish or tofu).

I don't drink coffee, but they have great iced chai lattes. Their Breakfast Burrito Panini Style is also great, or for lunch try their Curry Chicken Wrap. It's a nice local coffee shop.

A great typical 'plate lunch' place. If you are looking for a normal Hawaiian meal, this is the place to come. Descent prices, and won't leave you feeling heavy (but will leave you feeling full).

Amazing local BBQ place. The pork is to die for (get it with the Bok Choy slaw, and the Okinawan sweet potatoes with mango chutney). You won't regret this side-of-the-road stop.

Obama's favorite place to pick-up a Hawaiian style 'shave ice' in Kailua. Make sure you get a scoop of vanilla ice cream on the bottom and a 'snow cap' (condensed milk) on top for the full experience.

Nice cheap vietnamese sandwiches for lunch. The Furikake tofu sandwich, and the Kalua pork sandwiches are both winner for a quick easy bite. For dinner try the Tempeh Curry!

Great sushi. Not cheap, but not too expensive. Call ahead for a reservation cause they can get pretty busy. Also call for specials, since they have them some days a week and a certain times.

Great Japanese family-style hibachi. Order the meats/fish/vegetables in marinades and they bring them to your table for you to cook to your liking. Miso Tare Harami is the best thing on the menu.

A nice dinner establishment. Lunch is a bit pricey and not as great value (usually the other way around). The mezzalunas at dinner and the meyer lemon risotto fish are to die for.

Great place to get your morning juice/smooth/bowl. Try any of the varieties of Acai bowl for a filling but healthy morning boost, or just get a juice/smoothie to cool off on hot days.

Simple, delicious, convenient. Short walk from the house. Lilikoi sauce on the pancakes is great. Typical diner style breakfast plates, and not too hard on the wallet.

Sightseeing

1 of the most beautiful beaches. Can get windy in winter, and busy on weekends, but if you go further up to any of the public beach accesses and stay away form the beach park itself, you'll be good.

Small parking lot, but you can park on the streets (Kapaa / Hauoli) outside of a house (don't block mailbox or driveway and park in direction of traffic) nearby and walk. Less busy and just as pretty.
