Taiyaki Soft Serve Round-up

Somisomi Ah-boong $5.95

This year probably sets the record for number of ice cream shops that opened in Hawaii.  Thank goodness a few of those were taikyaki ice cream shops!  I've tried all three and my favorite is Somisomi, located in Ala Moana Shopping Center.  I just love their light and crispy cone!  The ice cream is also super creamy.      

Gimme Chills Taiyaki Ice Cream $5.95

The taiyaki ice cream at Gimme Chills is also yummy, but the cone was more crunch like than chewy.  Located in the Samsung Plaza, they are open daily from 10:30am -10pm and until 11pm on the weekend.  Gimme Chills also serves up Bingsu, rice cake sticks, honey toast, and frozen smores!   

Kokoro Café Shaka Boom $6.50

While technically not a taiyaki cone, the shaka-boom is like a fun cousin.  Located in the Royal Hawaiian Shopping Center's food court, Kokoro Café fills their shaka shaped waffle cone with tropical flavors like dole whip, coconut, and acai berry.  While I enjoyed the shaka boom, I liked their Over the Rainbow mochi-pop so much more.
