North Shore Dining
When your ready to venture away from the Beach Villas at Ko Olina head to the North Shore or Haleiwa, my home town. Here, stop at Kua Aina's for a Mahi Mahi burger, my wife loves their burgers. They also have hamburgers but we never order them. I get mine with Ortega Chilies on it. Delish! Kua Aina Burgers

For desert, stop at Matsumoto's for a Shaved Ice. I have great childhood memories of my mom rewarding me with a shave ice after my haircut across the street, the barber shop is now a dress shop. My favorite flavors are li hing mui, lychee & lilikoi (passionfruit). Matsumoto's Shave Ice

The best Mexican Restaurant on the Island is also in Haleiwa,  they have good margaritas also. Good local vibe. After lunch, continue on around and stop at Waimea Bay, Sunset Beach, Pipeline, all at the Northern tip of the Island. Great waves, great surfing, check the water and see what everyone is doing before swimming. In the summer, Waimea is as flat as glass, in the winter up to 40 foot waves. Cholo's Mexican Restaurant

Further around in Kahuku are the famous shrimp trucks, on one of your treks out, you have to stop here for lunch. The shrimp are grown in ponds right outside the shanty's or trucks. Giovanni's is the original. There are many more since then. The Polynesian Cultural Center is also over here in Laie. Think Epcot of the Pacific Island Nations. Good visit and a good show to end your day. The shrimp trucks have also expanded into Haleiwa.
