and shelf upon shelf of medium to hot chili sauces. The chefs for most of Honolulu's Asian
and ethnic restaurants shop here. 1319 S. Beretania St. & 808/593-8440. www.asianfood.com .
Don Quijote Stands offering takeout sushi, Korean kal bi, pizza, Chinese food, flowers, Mrs.
Fields cookies, and other items for self and home surround this huge emporium. Inside, you'll
find household products, a pharmacy, and inexpensive clothing, but it's the prepared foods
and produce that excel. The fresh-seafood section is one of Honolulu's best, not far from
where regulars line up for the bento lunches and individually wrapped sushi. When Kau na-
vel oranges, macadamia nuts, Kona coffee, Chinese taro, and other Hawaii products are on
sale, savvy locals arrive in droves to take advantage of the high quality and good value. 801

Fujioka's Wine Merchants Oenophiles flock here for a mouthwatering selection of excellent
wines, single-malt Scotches, and affordable, farm-raised caviar—food and libations for all oc-
casions. Everyday wines, special-occasion wines, and esoteric wines are priced lower here
than at most places. The wine-tasting bar at the rear of the store is a new attraction. Market City
Shopping Center, 2919 Kapiolani Blvd., lower level. & 808/739-9463.
HonoluluChocolateCo. Life's greatest pleasures are dispensed here with abandon: expensive
gourmet chocolates made in Honolulu, Italian and Hawaiian biscotti, boulder-size turtles (car-
amel and pecans covered with chocolate), truffles, chocolate-covered coffee beans, and jumbo
apricots in white and dark chocolate, to name a few. You pay dearly for them, but the dark-
chocolate-dipped macadamia-nut clusters are beyond compare. Ward Centre, 1200 Ala Moana Blvd.
& 808/591-2997.
