Overview

This walking food tour on Oahu lasts about three hours and covers less than half a mile, focusing on off-the-beaten-path locations. The tour includes six to eight stops with 13 to 16 tastings of local and ethnic foods. It begins with a visit to a 125-year-old active Japanese Shinto temple next to Nuuanu stream, where guests spend about fifteen minutes. The group then moves to downtown Honolulu for manapua, which are sweet buns filled with savory pork, followed by turon, a Filipino fried banana dessert. Next is chicken adobo, a Filipino braised chicken dish, and then Kauai wild-caught deep water prawns. The tour continues with a stop featuring five or more tastings of fresh, locally grown exotic fruits, depending on seasonal availability. At the Oahu Fish Market, guests sample fresh Japanese-style seafood, including chutoro sashimi (fatty big eye tuna served raw Japanese style) and Japanese octopus cooked in Korean dressing, with offerings subject to availability. The route proceeds to Chinatown for roast meats such as Chinese-style duck and roast pork belly with crispy skin, also depending on availability. The final stops include Vietnamese green pandan cake and Hawaiian-style poke, which is seasoned raw big eye tuna served cubed. Local juices such as lilikoi, lychee, guava, or pineapple, or bottled water, are included throughout the tour. Private transportation is provided for the group. Most of the tour involves standing, although seating is arranged when possible. Guests with serious food allergies should contact the operator before booking. Gratuities are not included.
