Visit Big Island: Sweet Indulgence Hawaii

On the way to Mauna Lani one morning, we knew we had to get some food ahead of time since there may not be a chance to eat until late at night.  I researched to find what would be open for breakfast options, and found Sweet Indulgence Hawaii, which offered both sweet and savories.

Braised Short Rib Banh Mi

Bacon and Eggs Sandwich

The sandwiches were huge and stuffed!  The short rib was so tender, and I loved the pickled veggies. 

The Bacon and Eggs Sandwich included tender braised pork belly and a delightful sweet chili aioli.  Both sandwiches were made with housemade ciabatta.

Quiche

We picked up some quiche for our teammates - they looked so delish!

Lilikoi Crunch Cake, Lilikoi Cheesecake, Caramel Mac Nut Cheesecake

And let's not forget the desserts!  I loved they had so many varieties of cheesecake.  They are my weakness.

The cheesecake was creamy and rich, just the way I like it.

But surprisingly, it was the Lilikoi Crunch Cake that really won me over.

I wasn't planning on getting it because I'm not much of a crunch cake (or cake in general) fan, but my friend insisted.

I'm so glad he did, because it was the best crunch cake I ever had (and he enjoyed it was well).  The cake was so moist, and the lilikoi was just so pleasant without being overpowering.

Chef Leah was so sweet and gave us some homemade Vanilla Ice Cream, and it paired perfectly with the crunch cake. 

I am excited to try more cheesecake flavors, and I definitely will be order the Lilikoi Crunch Cake again!
