Well, so far it's been really nice here. For the most part, I've acclimated to the warmer temps and lack of A/C. The high temps are always in the upper 80s which isn't too bad, certainly better than my August in Japan back in 2003, and the evenings and mornings are quite pleasant.

I'm pleased to report that we have managed to avoid chain restaurants so far (unless you count Safeway where we picked up groceries for breakfast). The interesting thing is that you can't always tell which places are tourist traps and which ones are real local jewels. The ads and articles in the magazines are obviously skewed and we've had to reconcile three different maps to determine which places to go to.

As a result, we've also had some good driving adventures exploring strange roads in a search for obscure attractions, many of which we've enjoyed, despite being off the beaten path. Unfortunately, I had to work for an hour this morning so I won't be able to go into detail right now.

5-hit combo (er... chain)
Well, if you need something off the beaten road (or right on the roadside), perhaps you can give Roadfood's reviews a try. Here are the five they've got for the state of Hawaii: http://www.roadfood.com/Restaurants/SearchResults.aspx?st=restaurants&ps=1&s=HI&c=&kw=&pkw=&ob=restaurantname

Unfortunately, none of those are on Maui.

true, true...
Yeah, I just noticed that after commenting. Is Chowhound next? (Or the Hawaiian equivalent of LTHForum?) Blah -- even without the recs, I wish you luck on your asphault adventures.
