Ever since the original Agnes Portuguese Bake Shop closed down a few years ago in Kailua, I really thought the little malasadas with the hole in the middle were gone forever until...............
Da FAMOUS Auntie - Nadine C. started to go to this little food truck like every freaking day, & posting up her deeeeeeeeeeeeelious morsel of malasada from Agnes Bake Shop. Aiyah! Now I got da Agnes Malasada on da mind!!!!
Where was this food truck located?
But of course in Kailua!!!!
After seeing malasadas posted everyday from Nadine C., I started to have strong cravings for Agnes Malasadas again, so I figured the next time I'm in Kailua for work, I'd look for this food truck to get me my fix!
Unfortunately for me, the few times that I was in Kailua for work, either things didn't workout for me as I got called away, or another time where I just plain couldn't find this food truck!!! DARN IT!!!
Thanks to my foodie buddy - Nat N. who went to Agnes recently, after I saw her post, I had to ask her where this food truck was located?
She in turned told me the easiest way to find this food truck was to look for this clothing store called - Manuhealii Inc., and you will find the Malasada truck sitting inside of the private parking lot.
Sure enough, Nat N. was on da money!!! Like GOLD!!!
Made my way to Kailua yesterday, as I was doing a job in the area...........easy to find, again, look for the Manuhealii clothing store.
Upon walking up to the food truck, I placed my order with the friendly clerk, then I waited for a few minutes............ as the malasadas are made fresh to order.
What can I say about the Malasadas????
The malasadas tasted exactly like the ones you would get from the original Agnes Bake shop!!!
The Malasada had the hole in the middle, it had a slight crunch on the outside, and when you bite into it, the inside was soft & dense.
Yes, this malasada is waaaaaaaaaaaaaaay different from Leonards Bakery's malasada, but ya know what?
There are different types of malasadas (the way it's made), and my honest opinion about all of this???
It's all good baby! I wouldn't turn down any malasadas!
After all, you got all of this going for yourself when you eat a malasada -
1. Deep Frrrrrrried Goodness!
2. Sugar Galore!
3. Carbs up da Yin-Yang!
4. And probably a stern warning from my doc (after they pull my bloodwork), and she sees the high level of cholesterol & sugar in my blood! Buwahahahahaha!
Anyways............one should never deprive yourself on one of da 808's fine delicacies! It's all about moderation baby!!!
Remember now.............da Malasadas, you gotta eat 'em HOT!!!! Cold, da buggah not gonna taste as good.
Oh, and by the way............the Agnes Malasada Food Truck is not strictly in Kailua (for you folks that don't know this).
I was told by the friendly clerk that you must follow them on Instagram, as they will post where the truck will be located.
The friendly clerk told me next week, da truck will be cruisin' da Kapolei area (just any FYI).
Check 'em out gang! No can go wrong!!!!
