First of all, it's a charming plantation cottage ... what a delight to dine in it's wonderful atmosphere. Postcards has the BEST SEAFOOD in all the Islands, hands down. It also has veggie meals (but that's not for me) ... I started with the homemade warm crusty bread with homemade hummas ... that, along with the good wine was perfect in and of itself. However, there was more .... the Monchong (sp) fish so light and delicate and yummy, that words fail me. The flavor of the vegetables could not compare with anything ... why? Because they are almost entirely organic and are grown right there, on the grounds, along with the herbs used in the preparation of the meals. Amazing, really. Desert just lite up my eyes and, had my sweet-tooth craving more and more. So I had two! I'd recommend the fantastic chocolate, "The Volcano" or, the "Vegan Chocolate Pie" ... hey, then there's the homemade banana ice cream made from Postcard's own bananas. IT DOESN'T GET ANY BETTER THAN THIS!!! POSTCARDS CAFE went above and beyond my greatest expectations!!!

Postcards Cafe in Hanalei is one of my dinner favorites and happens to be owned by my parents, so I will forever brag about it. They have a new vegan enchilada and also homemade hummus served with bread. Tropical Taco in Hanalei still makes a mean veggie taco.<br />Somehow in years of visiting Kauai I never came across Healthy Hut, a small natural foods store in Kilauea with bulk items, produce, vitamins, etc. It is diagonally across from the Historic Kong Lung Center which houses the beloved Kilauea Bakery. Last I checked the bakery had vegan stromboli, salads, pizza and more. Nearby is Kilauea Town Market and Deli that sells some healthy foods and general grocery items. You can get something from the deli to bring to the lighthouse a few minutes away.<br />Kapaa has a new place called Hoku Foods Natural Market at 4585 Lehua St. that is known to be cheaper than other such stores on the island and takes special orders. Get your cookies, get your kombucha! Then, if you are into natural healing, see Dr. Chad Bennis. He's a chiropractor (and a friend of mine) with an office on the main street of Kapaa near the ABC Discount store. Look for a bakery and a green street sign with Dr. Bennis' name.

The Lotus Root also closed. There are a few Mexican places doing veggie stuff: Verde in Kapa’a, Monico’s, also in Kapa’a, and Kauai Pasta, in both Lihue and Kapa’a. Kauai Pasta does an amazing portobello mushroom sandwich or salad, and the Lihue one is open from lunch through dinner. Found out some more news on Kauai veggie places from a local.
