FUUD: Contemporary Cafe in Makiki Heights

By Catherine Toth Fox • April 29, 2011 • Food

The other day I was craving tomato soup.

But I didn’t feel like fighting the crowd — OK, the parking — at Ala Moana Center for my favorite bowl at Nordstrom Cafe. And we were in the Makiki area. So we took a right turn off Nehoa Avenue and headed to The Contemporary Museum Honolulu, where I knew tomato soup would be on the cafe menu.

Here’s what we ate:

The cafe, too, is worth the drive up to the museum. It's got healthier fare; you won't find a greasy hamburger or a platter of fried chicken here.

The Contemporary Museum Honolulu, 2411 Makiki Heights Dr. Hours: 11:30 a.m.-2:30 p.m. Tuesday through Saturday, noon to 2:30 p.m. Sunday. Phone: (808) 523-3362

Stop those hiccups!
