Mary’s Maui Real Estate

I love Mexican food.  I have my old favorites and my new favorites…they all serve a purpose.  The favorites have to have good fresh food…..and I can have more than one because of the many distinct areas here on Maui.

Another “favorite” reason is ”that one dish” that I can’t live without.  For the freshest of the fresh in Kihei and the largest portions, the best Salsa bar….and my favorite taco salad ever!  Piled high with fresh cabbage, lettuce and more….. YOU HAVE got to go to JawZ.  I am telling you…you will not be able to compare “the others” in town once you have eatin’ whatever you order with the huge amount of stuff from the large salsa bar that you can pile on high—including the avocado sour cream!  They are on South Kihei Road.  1279 S Kihei Road to be exact.  AND if you are on the go you can hit up one of the lunch trucks on the side of the road in Makena.  MMMM good.  Open 11-9pm daily. 

We have to support our local spots.  And the ones we don’t want to see get eatin by the big sharks (no pun intended) we need to speak up for.  WE ALL KNOW that if we stop going to our favorite spots….they will not be there for long.  So as I look around at store fronts closing left and right in small towns like Paia I have to stop and wonder if I had ever gone in there and how much of their business was tourism.  If they are closing or have closed you know that they have not catered to the “locals”, as well as,the tourists.    Our regular slow time here (off-season) has been multiplied by the over all economic slow down and if you have a choice of going to a chain restaurant  or a local favorite  please do the latter. 

So the next time you are craving something really good, go to Jawz or some place like it that is your favorite…by doing this you will help our small businesses here on the island stay in business….
