Kailua

This is an ube ice cream cookie sandwich, and yes, that purple is completely natural in color. Ube originated in the Philippines and is a form of purple sweet potato. Chadlou's uses Dave's Ice Cream (a local company based in Waimanalo with several locations over the island of O'ahu). You can select whichever type of cookie you'd like from what they have available (we chose chocolate chip) and they make your very own custom ice cream cookie sandwich. Brilliant! For more of my foodie recommendations on the island of O'ahu where I live, you can subscribe to or stay tuned to my blog www.culturalfoodies.com to be updated when I post a new article. This photo is also featured along with all of my favorite eats all over the island of Oahu on my ULTIMATE FOODIE GUIDE TO OAHU blog post, which can be found here: https://culturalfoodies.com/2018/07/15/the-ultimate-oahu-foodie-guide/ #hawaii #icecream #ube #lifeatexpedia #purple #foodculture #foodie #localeats #likealocal #sweet #sweettreat #goodeats
