I'm a surfer girl and freelance writer who can't seem to get enough out of life abroad. Despite my frequent travels, my life in Hawaii (namely, my six-year old pug Iris) keeps me grounded.  Here in Honolulu, buildings pop up like tourists...

Bubbies Homemade Ice Cream Parlor

No other ice cream parlor comes close to the yummy, homemade ice cream and desserts at Bubbies.  The original Bubbies in Moili’ili, across the street from the old Varsity Theater, has been serving gourmet ice cream with local flavors like azuki, lychee, and green tea as well as pies with enticingly sexual names like “Come Here Little Girl,” “Mr. Momentum,” and “Prisoner of My Mind.”  There are also a wide assortment of mochi ice cream, which are small couple-bite-sized globs of ice cream wrapped in a chewy and sweet rice flour dough.  Both stores provide a comfortable, old-fashioned atmosphere for customers to enjoy their tasty dessert or after-dinner coffee or tea.

Whatever hour you manage to make it to the store, you are bound to encounter a line that sometimes pours out the door and onto the street.  The one on University has an influx of customers after dinner, and the one in Koko Marina tends to have a decent crowd that likes to hang out at the tables outside.
