Kanaka Kava Asian

To Cure All That Ails

Kava is a drink made from the Hawaiian Awa root, and is reputed to be a natural antidepressant and relaxant. It encourages sound sleep, vivid dreams, and its use dates back to ancient Hawaiian times. Enjoy a cup of kava here while sampling traditional Hawaiian pupus (appetizers) including poi, Kailua pork, ulu, and poke, among others not commonly found in Kona restaurants. All ingredients are organic and locally grown or produced. The scene here is super-trendy, and you can easily spend an afternoon enjoying the vibe. Located across from the ocean in Coconut Grove Marketplace. Parking available at rear. - Nora Dunn
