Broth Cafe at Alive and Well Market – Kahului

This is the kind of place that, if you blink, you’ll miss it. It’s just down the street from Tight Tacos at the corner of Hana Highway, located in a health food store. It’s worth finding.

Broth Cafe does, like the store around it, basically serve health food. It’s not vegan – it’s not even vegetarian – but it does try to pack a lot of healthy, local veggies into each item on its menu. And they also pack those items with some good flavor.

Broth offers take-out (which is how I generally use it) or you can eat there at their small counter, which is pleasant enough too.

They serve a huge variety of fruit and veg smoothies, but also more traditional fare like breakfast burritos, rice bowls, and ramen. I personally think their take on tofu poke is the best around (although Foodland in Pukalani comes in as a close second).

And if you’re looking for a really easy lunch to eat on the go, check out their banh mi sandwiches. All the flavor you’d expect from a Vietnamese restaurant but packed with veggies and overall, probably a little healthier given their great quality meats and mostly organic produce.

Don’t forget to grab a kombucha on tap!
