FOR THE TASTE BUDS

While in Maui we ate at some pretty marvelous places, but I really wanted to share with you two unique places that I enjoy the most.

First off is Choice Health Bar. Choice only uses the finest hand-selected organic produce grown on Maui’s family farms. The menu caters to vegetarians and vegans alike, and makes some of the most amazing tasting juices and acai berry bowls I have ever tasted. It’s comforting knowing that everything on the menu at Choice is organic, home-grown and packed full of healthy goodness.

Second is Coconut Glens, a rickety little shack located at a pit stop on the Road to Hana. They sell amazing tasting and locally grown coconuts, but that’s not even the best bit. Coconut Glen’s also makes some of the greatest vegan ice-cream to walk the planet. Really. If you spot the little shack on your way to Hana, pull off the road immediately! You won’t regret it, I promise.
