Fujiya Hawaii

Fujiya Hawaii is a confectionery known for their mochi, manju, and senbei. Some of their products are available in the supermarket but I recommend coming here for the best selection. If you're planning to get mochi, it is best to pre-order 2 days in advance on their website. This will guarantee you'll get what you want. You can walk in but some items might be sold out because of its popularity. Today (8/8/2021) is also the inaugural National Mochi Day. If you grew up on the islands, you'll know that mochi platters are at potlucks and holiday lunches/dinners so this is loved by the locals. My favorites are the strawberry mochi and chichi dango. The prices for mochi and snacks start from $4.

They are located in the McCully area. When you see Sanoya Ramen on S. King Street, make a right turn and Fujiya will be in the next parking lot. The parking lot is shared with Minato Japanese Restaurant and a few other businesses. Since we are still in a pandemic, I suggest paying with a card. Their terminal accepts contactless payment.

Island Popper

Island Popper is open and you can pick up some gourmet popcorn to snack on as you continue to work from home. My favorite flavor is the Oahu Mix, it's half butter popcorn and half furikake popcorn. If you've never had their popcorn before, I suggest the 4-cup pack for $10. Once you figure out your favorite flavor, move up to a bigger size. You can also have mochi crunch added to your popcorn for an additional fee. 

They are located in Kalihi. If you live on the island, you can purchase online and get curbside pick. They have parking spaces in front of the shop. If you are on the neighbor island or the U.S. mainland, they can ship to you. They have 2 different websites so make sure you are using the correct one before placing your order. You can follow them on instagram, @islandpopper for special flavors and special pricing.
