This year we decided to travel to Maui to celebrate our wedding anniversary - ILYSM .cj.eats! She has been more behind the scenes but does SO much to drive everything we do here and I’m so grateful to be working with my partner and best friend. The team at helped us with our stay and made it such a wonderful experience, including a phenomenal Chef’s table experience at . We’re already dying to go back!
If you’re planning to head to Maui, here’s where we stayed and what we ate!
Stay:
- and (to see different parts of the island!)
Eat:
- for an epic breakfast spread and their special chef’s counter tasting (video coming soon!)
- for takeout sushi (eat it on Wailea beach for the perfect day) and dinner (get the ribs and the ube basque cheesecake!)
- for poke and coconut shrimp (get there 10-15 min before opening)
- and for two different styles of cinnamon rolls - try both and decide which one is your favorite!
- for dinner - we loved the pork adobo fried rice!
- .noodle - just as good as we remembered! Make a res before you go.
- - the best ice cream on the island! Make sure to try their Hawaiian Sweet Cream!
- - our favorite food truck on the island for Thai food (check out all of the food trucks at )
- - get the Hawaiian Honeymee latte - trust us!
- - get an acai bowl and eat it while watching the sunset at !
- - for all of the ARMYs, the main reason Kat wanted to eat here was because BTS ate here - it was solid!
- - perfect stop near the airport. they’re famous for their smoked meats but we loved the chicken katsu, mac salad, and loco moco!
- - we always stop by during their HH for their famous Mai Tais, which I actually have a copycat recipe video for!
