Oahu Food and Travel Guide
Oahu always rewarded me for wandering beyond the Waikiki strip. Around Honolulu, the North Shore and the Windward Coast, I found neighbourhood restaurants, highway stops, shave ice and local dishes that made the island feel bigger and more generous with every drive.
No trip to O'ahu is complete without a visit to the stunning North Shore. The atmosphere is completely chilled, surfers worship the famous waves and all along the scenic stretch there are 51(yes!) beaches, art galleries as well as food trucks selling incredible garlic butter shrimp, shave ice and other must-have treats like chocolate haupia (coconut pudding) pie and snow puffy pastries wedged thick with creamy custard and dusted with powdered sugar. It is a feast for all of the senses with a sense of calm and relaxation.
