Cruises From Honolulu: Best Honolulu Cruises

The cuisine in Honolulu blends Polynesian, Japanese, and American influences to create delicious dishes that have a focus on seafood and local produce. Poke bowls combine chunks of raw tuna with other ingredients, like rice, seaweed, and pineapple. Lomi-lomi is a popular fish dish comprised of salmon served in chopped-up, raw pieces atop a side salad with tomatoes and onions. Another side dish you’ll commonly see in Honolulu and the rest of Hawaii is poi, which is made from fermented taro root that has been baked and turned into a paste.

For some delicious Chinese food, head to Honolulu’s energetic Chinatown. Hawaiians are big fans of spam, and you can try a traditional way of eating it in Honolulu with the spam musubi, a slice of grilled spam placed on top of rice and wrapped with nori. For a deliciously sweet dessert, try haupia, a custard made with coconut milk, or a Hawaiian shaved ice topped with tropical fruit syrup. Be sure to order a cup of coffee using locally grown Kona beans, and try some local craft beer or a tropical cocktail at one of the many bars in Waikiki.
