The Curb Kaimuki

The 38 Best Restaurants in Honolulu, Hawai‘i | Eater

"What started out as a coffee truck parked at the University of Hawaiʻi is now (after a change in owners) one of Honolulu’s most beloved cafes. You’ll find a noteworthy coffee program, as well as specialty drinks like a pandan matcha latte. And while it was once lacking in the food department, Curb now serves sandwiches and sweets by pastry chef Hana Quon. The ever-changing options have included hojicha cinnamon rolls, lychee and cherry tarts, and not-to-be-missed caneles. The Curb also doubles as a natural wine bar Thursday to Sunday, when you can bring your own food. Know before you go: The pastries come out randomly during the day and sell out quickly, so it’s best not to have your heart set on anything in particular." - Martha Cheng
