The corner of Beretania and Piikoi has always been a high profile corner with motorist as it is on the main thoroughfare entering to the H-1 freeway going east or west. The local neighborhood mom and pops "Piikoi Food Center" has given way to a variety of business such as Church's Chicken to the current GMC car sales lot.
In contrast, on the makai/daimond side of Beretania, The Garden House has retained the same status quo for many a decade catering to the local green thumb enthusiast. DY Small kid time, on da weekends, my cousin "T" and I, would ride our goose-neck bikes down from Punchbowl to Scotties for 5 for a dolla tacos (with hot sauce). We'd grind a couple dere, den head home and grind rest in da backyard wid the water hose running. On da way home, guarantee we stop by da Piikoi store fo cool our mouths with one creamsicle or popsicle. Nevah had traffic den. DY 8 |
