AROUND TOWN EVENTS

Pua Jewelry Summer Show Local jewelry designer Lauren Hewett Caldiero (Pua Jewelry) will be having a Summer Show and Sale on Sunday, June 3 from 5:30 to 8:30 p.m. at Town in Kaimuki. The best thing about Pua Jewelry, besides the fact that every piece is beautiful, is that Lauren only uses 14K gold and silver. This stuff is the real deal, baby! SMART loves Pua’s jewelry - necklaces, earrings, bangles and rings—inspired by the sea, sand and sky of Hawaii. Think seabirds, puka shells and starfish, all delicately fashioned in gold and silver. The Pua Jewelry Summer Show and Sale will also feature gorgeous and functional handbags from Meleana, all made with vintage Hawaiian fabrics. Accessories, check. Pua Jewelry Summer Show

Sunday, June 3 5:30 to 8:30 p.m.

OUR FAVORITE THINGS

The Deli at Umeke Market (Molly)

I am completely addicted to the Deli at Umeke Market. I’m there at least once a week, which is a lot considering it isn’t even in my neighborhood. It’s just so darn good, I can’t stay away. I alternate between the turkey burger, the organic tofu stir-fry, the tofu poke, the chicken salad with almonds sandwich, and any of its amazing soups. My favorites are the Detox Cleanse Soup (good for your liver!), the Thai Coconut Chicken, and the broccoli with walnuts.

And I always, always get a side order of its great organic kale salad. It’s lemony and garlic-y and completely raw, which makes it not only delicious but super good for you. I’m hooked.
