Joy’s serves high quality sandwiches, salads, and soups to go. The ingredients are invariably fresh and local and whether your thing is nut burgers or free range turkey (roasted inhouse), you’ll find excellent choices. Sandwiches are generally filled to bursting, and they use sprouted breads or locally-made herb breads. Among our favorite lunches is a […]

Well off the beaten path, this one-room kitchen belongs to a bygone era. The word “okazuya” is Japanese for “side dish shop” and refers to the days when bachelors left for work on the sugar plantations with rice in tow and in need of tasty sides to spice it up. They picked from piles of […]
