Merienda Maui

Small food truck situated in a parking lot near the Lahaina cannery. There's a few picnic tables set up in the center of the trucks with a few more off to the side under a tree for shade. Just remember that you're in Hawaii and things are a bit laid back. Don't rush and have dinner patience. It's worth it. Having said that the truck opened a little late but not too bad. The first and best was the Taiwanese salt and pepper chicken. It was so tasty, crispy and juicy. Definitely worth the wait. The mayo on top with the green onions was the icing on the cake. Definitely in for the win! The lumpia was also a winner. The crispy exterior have it great texture and the filling was very tasty. The dipping sauce added another dimension to the item making this a must try and a great sharing item. The pork tocilog was pretty good but not in the same category as the other two. The pork belly was a bit tough to chew and the flavors seemed a bit tame as compared to the other dishes. The picked vegetables (namasu) definitely added a need punch to the dish and did elevate it. The ube horchata was a nice sweet finish to the meal. It was make with coconut milk and some condensed milk per the owner. I didn't ask if it was rice based like traditional horchata but it didn't matter to me. Delicious!
