More Maui Food

We always need to do a separate post about Maui food! Mommy just needs an outlet for all the food photos she took. Most of the places we visited were the same as last time, but we also discovered a few new favorites.

Joey's Kitchen: A new find at Whaler's Village. After playing in the fountain, we didn't feel like waiting an hour for sit-down dining, so headed to the food court for a quick bite. While Colin and I ended up at the pizza stall, Mommy opted for the Filipino-influenced local cuisine, which also had rave reviews on Yelp. It did not disappoint - the braised beef short rib plate was amazing!

Paia Fish Market: An extension of the original Paia Fish Market in Paia (north end of Maui), which Mommy and Daddy visited long time ago (on their babymoon before they had me!). They were happy to see that a second location opened up in downtown Lahaina, much closer to where we were staying. It was dee-licious! Fast, casual, and so fresh. The fish tacos were awesome, and Colin and I inhaled the seafood pasta.

Joey's Kitchen Napili: Mommy and Daddy liked Joey's Kitchen at Whaler's Village so much, that they found another restaurant by the same owner, appropriately also named Joey's Kitchen. This one was in Napili, about ten minutes north of where we were staying. The food was made fresh to order, and it really felt like we were getting a home-cooked Filipino meal. From prawns to crispy pata (pork leg) to chicken chow fun and Filipino fried rice, everything had a unique flavor and we left stuffed.

Aloha Mixed Plate: Food with a view. It's not a trip to Maui without a visit to Aloha Mixed Plate!

Slappycakes: Oh yeah, and can't forget Slappycakes, the place where we create and cook our own pancakes. 

Heart of Te'fiti and Maui hook pancakes

Ululani's Shave Ice: Yet another visit.

Zippy's: Always our last stop before the airport.

Breakfast of champions

All these places were good and all, but nothing beats eating Lunchables in the comfort of our own kitchen!
