We will be staying at Maura Lani Point by Hyatt. Is that same as Mauna Lani Resort?
@lifeofsup 3 жыл бұрын
I believe it’s in the same area, but different resort entirely. I believe the Mauna Lani Point is more condo style rentals and the decor is different for each unit, but they have a kitchen and even washer / dryers in each unit. Mauna Lani Resort is run by Auberge and is more of a high end resort.

When I lived on the big island, we used to go to the canoe House and stay at Mauna lani, that’s when Alan Wong was head chef… opaka’paka pasta with asparagus and Chinese black beans. That was 28 years ago….

Don't forget Managos! For Hilo side, I'd recommend tex drive in malasadas, Hilo lunch shop or Kawamotos (take out lunch cause no seating, and always long line), cafe 100 for loco mocos only, Le umu in Keaau if you like try something different (samoan food), mt view bakery (sometimes they close so call before hand), and KMC bowling alley for cheap eats in volcano national park for the little one to unwind in the gameroom.
@Komainu959 Жыл бұрын
What do you like about Ken's Pancake House? I mean it's nice that they're the only game in town late at night and I have lots of fond memories eating there after last call at the bars but the food is just average. I mean pancakes are good and I always thought their real crab meat omelet was great but Hawaiian Style basically beats them out for just about everything other than hours open.
@Komainu959 Жыл бұрын
@@skynsidhawaii Some nice suggestions. I'm a little surprised about Cafe 100. I mean since I grew up in Hilo I'm pretty proud of it being the home of the loco moco but I always thought theirs was stuck in the past and very average. Other side of the island but Big Island Grill had awesome ones. I remember I liked Hawaiian Style Cafe as well and I believe it was Kuhio Grill with the fried rice version. But to each their own and I know I'm in the minority when it comes to Cafe 100.
