| - I'm very happy to see more and more of our Island based ethnicity flavored drinks and speciality popping up in the continent area!
Not many in the continent know of the varieties of acai bowls and walking in to be greeted with "ALOHA" greeting - it's a sign of welcoming and yet, filled with a humility of respect. The word Aloha is usually recognized by its general meaning of love and greeting/farewell.. but, reality "ALO" means presence of looking someone in the eye - you are present with the individual and "HA" is breath of life!
So for me walking in and being greeted as just that is music to my ears. The welcoming feeling of having our island music playing throughout and seeing their menu filled with our local slang pidgin - just makes me not want to look outside and imagine I'm in North Shore - Haleiwa getting out of the ocean and ready for some refreshing acai bowls and delicious mixture of lemonade. I love the video playing on the big screen and seeing our ocean and salt water, wishing every moment I was home on da beach!
Their acai bowls we enjoyed today was their Da Kine Bowl - acai, banana, strawberry, coconut milk, granola, cacao scoop, coconut shavings, and I had extra raw honey all over and my kane had his Haupia Ono Bowl - Organic Acai, Banana, Organic Strawberry & Blueberry, Coconut Milk, Organic Granola, Banana, Blueberry, Strawberry, Macaroon, Organic Coconut, Local Honey, Haupia Custard
This for us is our kind Hawaiian acai Bowl! Everytime we go back home to visit our ohana these are one of our cravings we miss sooo much having on hand!
To the owners - mahalo Piha in bringing this to Scottsdale, AZ. I cannot wait to advertise your shop to our Hawaiian civic club here in AZ and Support you/wife/ohana in what you are all doing! Please dont change anything - the greetings, music, and your love!
This is a one of a kind place and blessed to have you here! Chhheeehhheeeeee - Living Pono! Meaai
\m/ - ALOHA
