So, on our first full day in Kauai, we did the Kauai Food Tour Northshore with Michelle. She is awesome.....We met at the Northshore General Store and enjoyed a sample of oven brick pizza and chili pepper chicken, WOW! Then, off to Tiki Iniki for a Mai Tai, fish and chips and pork ribs. Quality, fabulous, taste, again fabulous! And Michele Rundgren, the owner, was so much fun and so engaging! Not only is she a rock star, literally, and married to a rock star, she is also a dress designer, ask her about her gorgeous dresses 😃 (And we went back for breakfast the next day). Now to Kauai Grill at the St Regis, elegant and delicious. Hanalei Taro and Juice Company for a sample of poi with pork and salmon. Just so you know, I love poi and this was soooo good. They also make poi based smoothies, yum! We then walked up to another food truck, Trucking Delicious, for a handmade green tea ice cream and chocolate cookie sandwich, are ya kidding!? Have two!! Chloe is a delight and is passionate about her food. We will be back this week for the ahi lunch special. Our final stop was the Waipa Foundation Farmers Market. Besides amazing fruits and veggies, we also bought Sal's Salsa, Kauai Kunana Dairy marinated artichoke chèvre, Pono Taro Chips, Hawaiian Healing Arts Ylang Ylang Oil and spearmint and lavendar soap from Waiiti Soaps. Best way to start a trip for introduction to the local cuisine. Just do it!
