Macky's

Of all the shrimp trucks, or even all the food trucks, this is the best. Macky is a genius. The shrimp is perfectly good, perfectly flavored, and Macky is just so nice. Oh and the shrimp is raised/farmed just up the road on the north shore - minutes from my parents house. You can't get much fresher than that!
This is Macky - he stands outside and welcomes everyone, "Hello, welcome to Macky's!" (say with an Asian accent)
While you wait for your food - enjoy the local fauna - chickens, they're everywhere!
This is the lemon pepper shrimp, my mom's favorite.

Oh beautiful coconut shrimp, thank you for being so delicious!

Look at that coconut in the batter. That sauce on top is a perfect compliment.

Macky's is located on the south end of Haleiwa. If you are in Hawaii it is worth the drive from Honolulu. And while your there - have a Matsumoto Shave Ice, the first ever Shave Ice.

Oh boy. This is on the top of my list of what to try when we land in Oahu! I LOVE coconut shrimp. Thanks for featuring these great restaurants... we'll have to give them a try!
