Julia’s Best Banana Bread
At a bright green, wooden roadside stand outside the small former-missionary village of Kahakuloa, family members sell Julia's banana bread, a famously moist treat made daily from organic local bananas. Reaching the stand requires persistance and nerves of steel to naviagate the costal highway and its hairpin curves along towering cliffs overlooking Maui's North Shore. Along with the eponymous banana bread, the stand sells coconut candy, taro chips, and roasted macademia nuts. Customers should gas up before venturing out and bring cash.
Insider Tip:
The bread is usually sold out for the day by 2pm, so plan your visit accordingly.
