Honolulu, Hawaii | KCC Farmers Market – Grilled Abalone is a YES! 🙌

If you're on Oahu, don't miss the KCC Farmers Market every Saturday! 📍 Hours: Saturdays, 7–11 AM I arrived at 9:30 AM — it was crowded and lively! 🤣 After scoping out the scene, I jumped into line for these highlights: 1️⃣ Kona Abalone 🐚 Highly recommended! Freshly grilled live abalone — 3 flavors available. I tried garlic butter — tender, juicy, and super fragrant 😋 Also ordered the abalone salad with seaweed and fish roe — refreshing and delicious! 2️⃣ Fresh Sugarcane & Passionfruit Juice 🧃 Sweet and energizing — loved it! 3️⃣ Japanese Musubi 🍙 Tuna and veggie options — both solid choices! 4️⃣ Strawberry Daifuku 🍓 Okay if you like mochi, but nothing special. 5️⃣ Takoyaki 🐙 Got the cheese flavor — decent, but a bit too much batter 😉 6️⃣ Mangosteen Pricey 💸 and not very fleshy — skip unless you’re curious. 7️⃣ Seafood Soup 🍲 Only $5 and packed with ingredients! Great value. The market is big and full of produce, local products, and ready-to-eat foods. It’s not the cheapest, but it’s all about the vibe and experience! 🥥🌽🫐 ⚠️ Note: There aren’t many proper seats — the benches across the street near the school are blocked off, but you can sit on ledges or grassy edges. Perfect for a casual picnic vibe! 😂 🚻 Restrooms are available at the school and are pretty clean. 💎 And right next to it — Diamond Head! Hike it off after eating! 🏔️🍃 #Hawaii #KCCFarmersMarket #HonoluluEats #LocalFood #FoodMarket #Oahu #TravelHawaii 🌺
