Quotes:

“An hour later, if you’re weary of navigating curves and your blood sugar is crashing, pull into Halfway to Hana (marker 17). Nita Chong and Auntie Marilyn whip up these perennial favorites for tour vans, but don’t be put off if there’s a line (nor by the menagerie of stuffed wild animal heads in Nita’s carport) their bread is smooth like poundcake with just-right hints of apple banana—worth the wait.”

“You’re actually on the Hana Coast when you see Nita Chong’s “HALFWAY TO HANA” roadside stand, just above the scenic Keanae peninsula. Only 18
miles from Hana town, Chong’s stand isn’t really halfway. The flipside of her sign reminds Hana residents that this is the last stop before the long haul to Kahului. In a taste of the hospitality we’d experience all along the coast, Chong gifted us with loaves of her homemade banana bread.”
