Big Island

Kilauea Hits Pause Again

March 9, 2023 by Island Miler

Kilauea Hits Pause Again

After erupting for 61 days this year, Kilauea hits pause again. Yup, if you're headed to the Big Island, I'm sorry to say that there is no volcanic activity on the island at all right now. But there's still a lot to do, see, and taste!  … [Read more...] about Kilauea Hits Pause Again

Kilauea January 2023 Eruption

January 6, 2023 by Island Miler

Kilauea January 2023 Eruption

2022 ended with zero volcanic activity on the Big Island. Both Mauna Loan and Kilauea stopped erupting almost simultaneously. Naturally, the big question at the time was if and when Kilauea would begin erupting again. The answer to that question is now, as the Kilauea January 2023 eruption begins.  … [Read more...] about Kilauea January 2023 Eruption

Mauna Loa Eruption 2022

November 29, 2022 by Island Miler

Mauna Loa Eruption 2022

At long last, the largest volcano on the planet has awakened from its slumber. Yup, that's right, for the first time in 38 years, there is an active Mauna Loa eruption. Even better, it doesn't look like it'll impact any populated areas, at least for now.  … [Read more...] about Mauna Loa Eruption 2022

Visiting the Puna Chocolate Hilo Store

November 25, 2022 by Island Miler

Puna Chocolate

I've been buying Puna Chocolate for a couple of years now but have never been able to visit one of their physical locations until now. In the waning moments of our time on the Big Island, Mrs. Island Miler and I decided to pay the Puna Chocolate Hilo store a visit.  … [Read more...] about Visiting the Puna Chocolate Hilo Store

The Incredible FoodxJitsu Omakase Set

November 17, 2022 by Island Miler

FoodxJitsu

Hilo is Hawaii's hidden foodie secret. While there are more obvious choices, such as Moon & Turtle - I really gotta get there one of these days - there are other, hidden options. The one I wanted to try the most and got to try this past September is the FoodxJitsu omakase set.  … [Read more...] about The Incredible FoodxJitsu Omakase Set

Na’au Hilo – A Fantastic and Unique Dining Experience

November 10, 2022 by Island Miler

Na'au Hilo

It's no secret that I've been a big fan of Na'au Hilo since its inception. I've been to most of their Oahu pop-ups at PAI Honolulu (also a favorite) but never attended a stand-alone dinner. At least, not until recently.  … [Read more...] about Na’au Hilo – A Fantastic and Unique Dining Experience

The Incredible Mr. Ed’s Bakery

November 4, 2022 by Island Miler

I've touched on Mr. Ed's Bakery before, but given our recent visit, I think this gem deserves a post of its own. Make no mistake, there will be no baked goods discussed here: just a passionate man and his huge collection of preserves. … [Read more...] about The Incredible Mr. Ed’s Bakery

Trying Suisan Poke Bowls

October 20, 2022 by Island Miler

Our first stop in Hilo was Two Ladies Kitchen, and while we bought a ton of mochi, that isn't a meal. So, we decided to get some lunch before heading over to Waikoloa. This time around, we decided to check out the Suisan poke bowls.  … [Read more...] about Trying Suisan Poke Bowls

United is Ending Its Hilo Service

October 19, 2022 by Island Miler

United is Ending Its Hilo Service

The diversity of destinations served by Hilo International Airport is about to get much smaller as United is ending its Hilo service. With the loss of this route, Hilo will no longer have any flights that go outside of Hawaii.  … [Read more...] about United is Ending Its Hilo Service

Two Ladies Kitchen 2022

October 6, 2022 by Island Miler

Two Ladies Kitchen 2022

For years now, there's always been one place I absolutely must visit when I'm on the Big Island. However, much has changed since 2020. So, even though I last visited them in 2019, I think it's worth writing a Two Ladies Kitchen 2022 post.  … [Read more...] about Two Ladies Kitchen 2022
