CRC blog post- Loco for Loco Moco

By Julie Cader

Julie is Finance & Administration Manager for the California Rice Commission.  This is the first in an occasional series of blog posts about California rice cuisine.  It’s her first trip to Hawaii in many years, where California rice is extremely popular.

Aloha from Maui!

On our list of things to do in Maui was to find the best Loco Moco on the island. Located along the shoreline near Mala Wharf, nestled between a grand assortment of Birds of Paradise, Red Ginger, Anthuriums, Orchids, Tuberose, Ti-leaves, and other majestic tropical foliage, is where we found Aloha Mixed Plate, voted Best Plate Lunch by readers of The Maui News.


Our server, Michele, provided the perfect fusion of natural beauty and great Hawaiian hospitality. The Bloody Mary's were awesome and the Loco Moco was incredibly delicious. Michele offered that the Calrose rice in the Loco Moco tasted extra special due to the high humidity, and we totally agreed.


The next time you are in Maui, try not to miss this unique and rewarding dining experience.

Mahalo.
