This morning after Dropping off Jo at work Alex returned with some amazing goodies for breakfast from a spot called Zippys, which is a Hawaiian 24hour fast food joint. The above lovely pastries are called Malasadas, and they're originally a Portuguese dish. These ones however, had a Hawaiian twist! The far right was plain and was very similar to fried dough you get at a carnival. The middle was filled with a custard creme, and the left was filled with a haupia creme. Haupia is made from coconuts and has a sweet tangy flavor. These are definitely not something to miss out on!
Later on that day Alex and I went out to grab some lunch at one of my favorite spots I have ever come into contact with, The Geste Shrimp Truck. They have the recipe on lock! Every style they do is awesome, but hands down my favorite is the Spicy Pineapple! Its sweet and spicy, and it will leave you licking your fingers clean. The macaroni crab salad that's served up along side it is pretty damn good too! For anyone that's thinking about coming to visit Maui the Geste Shrimp truck is a mandatory stop.
