Craving some live abalone?
How about fresh rambutan or lotus root?
Honolulu’s Chinatown may be small, but it makes up for its size with sheer diversity.
The pan-Asian microcosm is concentrated at markets like Kekaulike Mall and Maunakea Marketplace, where stall after stall offers exotic herbs, fruits, vegetables, fish and meat.
Proprietors from China, Vietnam, the Philippines, Korea and Laos tailor their goods for different cuisines.
Pick up some roast pork or noodle rolls if you’re hungry, check out Maunakea’s cafeteria-style food court, or pop into a hole-in-the-wall for some dim sum or pho.
