Visit Maui: Hāliʻimaile General Store

For a taste of the 1990s Hawaii Regional Cuisine Era, make a visit to Hāliʻimaile General Store.

Chef / Owner Bev Gannon is one of the founding chefs of the Hawaii Regional Cuisine movement. 
Crab Pizza
The Crab Pizza incorporates imitation crab on stone fired flat bread.  It was really good!

Kalua Pork Wonton
The wontons were stuffed with kalua pork and goat cheese.  The pork was a little too much on the dry side for me. 
HGS Cobb Salad
I really enjoyed the HGS Cobb Salad, which had baby romaine, mayak egg, SPAM Katsu, gorgonzola, avocado, cherry tomatoes, and a ranch dressing.  I thought the SPAM Katsu was an interesting choice for the salad, but I liked it on its own, and would have preferred bacon on the salad instead.  
Sashimi Napoleon

The Sashimi Napoleon is a signature dish, with ahi sashimi, ahi tartare, smoked salmon, crispy won ton, and a wasabi vinaigrette.
Fresh Banana Cheesecake
The Fresh Banana Cheesecakes was amazing.  I love cheesecake, and I thought this dessert had a nice balance of textures and the flavor was so pleasant.  

Service was excellent.
