A couple weeks ago we were able to go to one of my favorite restaurants for dinner, Hiroshi Eurasion Tapas! I love this place, the sauces are so good, I’ve always enjoyed every appetizer, entree, and dessert that I’ve had here. First up were two things to start off with. In the top photo is [...]

Kailua Farmer’s Market

For the past couple of months we’ve been going to the Kailua Farmer’s Market on Thursday afternoons. I love the KCC Farmer’s Market…it’s just that it’s really hard for me to wake up early on Saturdays! So this Kailua one is perfect. Lots of ono food, and at the very comfortable hour of 5:00 pm. [...]

Noboru Japanese Restaurant, Kailua

After going to watch a concert on the Windward side a while back, we went with my mom for a drive around Kailua looking for a restaurant that was still open for a late lunch. Craving Japanese food we decided on Noboru near Down to Earth in Kailua. Since it was after the time that [...]

Hi guys! I’m still alive, just super busy starting a new job this year. I have photos from back in May just waiting on my camera…but until I have time to get those together, here’s a little something to tide you over. This weekend we went out to celebrate my mom’s birthday at one of [...]

Down to Earth Hawaii – Vegetarian Eats

Lori — Mon, 27 Jul 2009 06:26:34 +0000

Finding vegetarian places to eat out here in Hawaii isn’t always easy. But we’ve found Down to Earth to be a great place to pick up lunch while grocery shopping! On this day we had a couple burgers and a bowl of chili. Everything was delicious! And the really good part is now that Circuit [...]

Our new favorite place to eat when in the Ward area is Mocha Java Cafe in Ward Centre. We are trying to eat vegetarian these days and this place has a very nice selection of vegetarian dishes to try! Up at the top is the Vegetarian Szechuan Stir Fry – Tofu, peppers, and onions in [...]

Off the Wall, Pearl Kai

Lori — Mon, 16 Mar 2009 01:56:57 +0000

Back in June of 2008 I did a post about Off the Wall’s restaurant opening in Pearl Kai Shopping Center. Time sure does fly and I felt it was a good time to do a little update to see how they are doing now. New hours of operation are located at the bottom of this [...]

Legend’s Vegetarian Restaurant

Lori — Sat, 07 Mar 2009 18:42:39 +0000

Specializing in vegetarian dim sum and Buddhist cuisine, this vegetarian version of the popular Legend’s Restaurant was such a great find! If you know where the regular Legend’s dim sum restaurant is, this location is situated just across the walkway. It’s much smaller than the original restaurant which makes it much easier to get a [...]

Big City Diner, Kaimuki

Lori — Sun, 08 Feb 2009 20:38:11 +0000

This weekend we were hanging out in a picture frame shop where we ran into one of my dad’s friends, a local photography teacher. We had a good time at the shop looking at oil paintings, watercolors, and some interesting chalk landscapes done by the owner of the frame shop. After this my dad’s friend [...]

India Cafe, Honolulu

When you have a birthday coming up, how far ahead to you start thinking about where you want to have your birthday dinner? For me, I start thinking about it maybe 3 to 4 weeks prior to the day. And in the case of my younger brother, he also had his sights set for quite [...]

Giovanni’s Shrimp Truck, Oahu

Lori — Fri, 16 Jan 2009 23:27:43 +0000

Last week we went riding around the North Shore with our friends. What did they want? To see waves and eat garlic shrimp! The waves were kind of flat that day (considering it was winter on the North Shore), but we were successful with the second item of business! We were driving around Oahu counter-clockwise, [...]

Here is a round up of my favorite eating out dishes experienced here at Made Healthier this year! 1. Highway Inn – Beef Stew Combo Whenever I get that craving for beef stew, I have to go to Highway Inn in Waipahu! The beef stew is more on the soupy/tangy side, just how I like [...]

Le Bistro, Honolulu: A lovely birthday dinner in Niu Valley

Lori — Mon, 22 Dec 2008 04:29:13 +0000

My friend at work has been enjoying dinners at Le Bistro in Niu Valley this past year and it has been killing me! I’m not a breakfast person so imagine coming in to work and getting the latest report on an empty stomach…we had escargot, and beef samplers, and lamb, and…. I’d be drooling with [...]

Imperial Chinese Restaurant in Aiea

Lori — Tue, 09 Dec 2008 03:12:55 +0000

I really like dim sum. And for those like me, there are two new places to go to in Aiea. The first is Golden Lion in Waimalu (by City Mill and Safeway). I went here once for dinner several weeks after they hired their new dim sum chef. It was pretty good, but a bit [...]

Dim Sum at Legends in Honolulu

Lori — Sat, 08 Nov 2008 06:26:15 +0000

Since we were both off this Election Day, we decided to go out for dim sum for lunch! I was being indecisive so I called up my mom for her recommendation. She named a couple of her favorites and I finally decided on Legend Seafood Restaurant. It was a late lunch so luckily we got [...]
