    The local mall if you feel like you need to shop
    Not a factory outlet but certainly all the labels you need to America. If it’s not a good day with the weather or you need some retail therapy, this mall is worth a visit. Barnes and Noble, my absolute highlight!

    enjoyable experience
    Everyone we interacted with was kind and helpful! Sometimes prices weren't easy to find but for the most part the vendors were easy to approach, without being aggressive. There did seem to be many booths set up by the same vendors, and popular items that many had available. There were hundreds of vendors, but only dozens of product types. Generally decent quality, and items for varying budgets.

    Our favorite things at International Market Place
    International Market Place is a great place to browse around the shops if you need a break from the sun. The staff at the information desk are very helpful and friendly. We love the restaurants there, especially for happy hour. Eating House, Moani and Herringbone. The Kona coffee shop has great coffee and amazing desserts and pastries but go early because the line gets super long. We wish that International Market Place had a playground for kids, on rainy days it would draw locals and visitors to spend time and shop there. We also miss the free hula show in the evenings….that was always a huge draw for us during the week after cocktails on the grand lanai.

    Local shopping in Honolulu
    This was a fun shopping area to explore. There are some chain stores, but also many local stores. We found lots of gems in this shopping center that we had been looking for.

    Fun Shop, Good Produce
    It is a supermarket, pharmacy, and department store all in one. I was told it was the "Japanese Walmart", but it is not. The layout is average, yet it had a very good produce department. Hawaiian souvenirs are relatively cheap here, and this is a great store to visit if you forgot something for your stay on the island. What ever item that you will need, "Donki" will have it. We noticed many toys for children, but were surprised that there were not more products from Japan. Prices are decent to low for items here, and are considered a bargain for Honolulu. Parking is very limited.

    All food and produce
    This was my Saturday morning plan while visiting Honolulu. It had tons of produce, which I wished I could take back home. It also had some excellent local food. I was saving my palate to try some of the local vendors and was not disappointed. The only negative was it was only food related. No local crafts.

    The best poke on Oahu
    We've tried poke all over the world and this has to be one of the best if not the best. All other Foodland stores have the same quality poke and price, so it doesn't have to be at the Ala Moana mall location. This mall location is bigger, newer and cleaner than other stores and it's also within walking distance therefore we come here often. This location also has more food choices and a nice area to eat your meal. Prices are higher than grocery stores in the mainland, but we try did see many sale items that are good priced. It is still cheaper than ABC so no complaints from us. Will come back for the poke...

    Nice shops
    We came here to go to the cinema and popped into the pub for lunch before we went in to the movie. Nice enough place with a lot of shops.

    Interesting and Very Worthwhile!
    The Japanese Cultural Center was easy to find, there is parking in their lot for a slight fee or plenty of street parking.
    FYI, it is located close to Wakiki hotels. They had 2 exhibits, one was free and had a movie which was about the intern ment of the Japanese during WW2, and the other was an exhibit about the ancestry and life of Japanese in Hawaii, there was a fee. This exhibit was very interesting and well done. What was especially nice was that the peaople at the center circulated in the area and answered questions and explained some of the exhibits.

    A local favorite
    In the industrial section of Kalihi, on a back road, is this Hawaiian Chip Co. On Saturday, there is a steady flow of locals, who place their order, and wait for a fresh batch of taro and purple sweet potato chips. The small factory store also sells bags of prepackaged chips. But, the best part of waiting for a fresh order, is that the chips come out in bags or boxes, and you can sprinkle your own flavorings. From Maui onion, Cajun, spicy garlic, sugar, cinnamon, furikake, one can sprinkle and create their own flavored chips. And each customer I talked to had their own favorite. The staff is very friendly and helpful. And the owner greets his customers. They are not shy about offering samples, allowing one to determine the best flavor for the chips. They also serve flavored teas on the weekends only. Once you’ve had these fresh chips, you will then understand the craze for these chips.

    Disparate offerings
    Describing this as a shopping centre is a little bit of marketing spin. It's actually five separate buildings of somewhat disparate quality in the same area. The Nordstrom Rack and TJ Maxx in one building are both great and there's an excellent Whole Foods Market a hundred yards or so up the road, but the other shopping precincts were either rather run down or of minimal interest given how much shopping there is to be done in Honolulu. One plus was that there is lots of parking.

    Ok, but not spectacular
    Do think it’s way too much for the average person. The prices were way higher than what we expected. The mall is gorgeous, though. Mostly catering to luxury goods. Definitely high quality!

    Nice quaint farmers market for the locals
    This is a smaller more quaint market as opposed to the one at the community college (which is huge and has tourist buses that bus the visitors in). If you just want to pick up some nice local vegetables, greens, fruit without the fuss, this is a good place to come to. They also serve food and there is a very large area where you can sit, listen to the music and have a very relaxing Saturday morning. It is located in the Ward Shopping area right across the park at Ala Moana.

    HAWAII 2020 ADVENTURES #12 - MONTGOMERY CLIFT INSPIRED SHIRT
    On the day before Thanksgiving after visiting the Halona Beach Cove I drove here to buy a Hawaiian shirt, which is very touristy. I came here because of the Hawaii episode of Anthony Bourdain's "No Reservation". He pointed to a shirt that Montgomery Clift wore in the movie "From Here To Eternity". When that episode originally aired I hadn't read the novel or watched the movie.

    When I came here I wasn't specifically looking for that shirt to buy. Entering the store I was intimidated by abundance of shirts from the racks and ceiling; there's so many shirts to choose from. Unlike in Kauai where at the last Hawaiian shirt store, which was Jacqueline on Kauai, I wasn't rushed by the manager of the store. I took my time looking at these shirts. The shirt displayed from the ceiling are the most expensive shirts in the store. One of those shirts was the Montgomery Clift shirt featured from the movie. That shirt costs over $2,000. In addition to the price I wasn't going to buy that shirt as it was a small size.

    From the Hawaii episode of Bourdain stated, "As with true love you don't pick your shirt it picks you." One of the shirts I was planning to buy was a white shirt with pineapples. The white texture had a similar appearance to a barong tagalog, which is a tradition Filipino shirt that men wear to church. I was going to buy that shirt until the manager showed me a retro Montgomery Clift shirt from one of the racks. Bourdain was right. This shirt was meant for me. Since it was not from the ceiling I didn't have to pay hundreds or thousands of dollars. I didn't care if that shirt was used not new. I am not a big collector of Hawaiian shirts as I own only 6 Hawaiian shirts (ok that seems a lot of Hawaiian shirts). At that time I bought them they were new. I have to say the used shirt I bought at this store is my favorite Hawaiian shirt.

    Due to the manager assisting me in buying the Hawaiian shirt I give this place a better rating than the store in Kauai. The best advice I would give is to not come here with the exact type of shirt that you are looking for. Since there are so many shirts go through the racks to find the shirt that picks you. If you're traveling to Honolulu and want a vintage Hawaiian shirt I recommend coming Bailey's Antiques and Aloha Shirts as they probably have shirts made from all the Hawaiian Islands.
