Guidebook for Ewa Beach
Essentials
Located in the deli section of a local Hawaiian chain of grocery stores, Foodland boasts some of the best poke (raw marinated seafood) the island has to offer. Don't let this grocery chain fool you, real locals know this poke is legit. My favorite is the mussel poke because the marinade is full of umami, budget friendly and sustainable.
