TOP 10 THINGS TO EAT ON OAHU’S NORTH SHORE

“Two words to describe Kono’s: good vibes. It’s such a chill-living, surfer dude-ing, yummy eating joint that everyone can love.

Initially we’d envisioned someplace in Europe—a coastal spot in Italy or perhaps the French countryside.

We decided on the North Shore in Oahu, which couldn’t have been more idyllic…”Read More..
