Aloha all! I thought about putting this in the non classifieds, but decided to post here instead because it's more a review, rather than a classified [

I discovered a new place in Pahoa a couple of mornings ago called Milk and Honey Cafe (not to be confused with the milk and honey farm, nearby). It's inside the Pahoa Museum and they serve mostly local, organic fare. And here's the best part: It's CHEAP!! I had a nice sized cup of organic chai along with breakfast which consisted of two eggs a couple large scoops of brown rice, avocado, tomato, and some amazing raw cheese that they get from an Amish farm, all for $7.00, including tax.
The owners, Natasha and Mozy are super sweet and just delightful to talk to. So friendly! They've got the most adorable little baby who keeps them both company with big smiles and bright eyes, the cutest little gem!
Mozy is originally from Israel and the menu reflects that in such a good way. Everything is made from scratch right there in the kitchen, simple yet amazingly tasteful food. Hummus, eggplant salad, baked goods, organic coffees and teas. They even make their own pita bread. Mostly everything is vegetarian, with a Mediterranean flare. And they just got a juicer, so they're also going to have smoothies and fresh juices available very shortly!
Natasha is originally from the mainland, I want to say California, but don't hold me to that... She was just the nicest person to meet. She's really down to earth and wants to see Pahoa thrive.
Overall, I would say that this little place is a wonderful new edition to Pahoa! They even offer free wifi with your own laptop. So if you're sick of spending all your rainy days at home on the computer like I am, you can go down to Milk and Honey, sip on a cup of organic coffee or tea, order one of the delicious dishes from their small, but very well rounded (and inexpensive) menu and play around on the internet in the company of some super cool people. Not to mention taking in a little bit of art and history from the free museum....[

"The only people for me are the mad ones, the ones who are mad to live, mad to talk, mad to be saved, desirous of everything at the same time, the ones that never yawn or say a commonplace thing, but burn, burn, burn like fabulous yellow roman candles exploding like spiders across the stars."

"How do you know i am mad?" said Alice.
"You must be," said the cat "or you wouldnt have come here."
