Cereal Remix Reviewed
While the Froyo Wars is in full effect, the battleground over the Hawaii cereal market is only starting out. There’s Scrambled in Windward Mall and now on the Leeward side, there’s Cereal Remix.
To give these cereal cafes a fair shot, I had to try it out, hitting up the recently opened Cereal Remix. I opted for the steel cut oatmeal for a heartier meal instead of the sugary breakfast cereals. The 16-oz Mini goes for $4.25 and is filling enough after adding the toppings. For my hot oats, I sowed honey, azuki beans, strawberries, blueberries, mango, brownie bits, Reese’s peanut butter cups, and some brown sugar. The azuki beans were a winner along with the fruit. The Reese’s and brownie bits somehow didn’t match thought I hoped they would. The mango was kinda funky tasting, what a bummer. I also tried a sprinkle of li hing powder, but that combination is definitely not for me.
So overall, Cereal Remix was a worthy experience that you have to try for yourself. Honestly, I’m not sold on this cereal cafe concept especially during these tough economic times, but I do wish Cereal Remix future success.
Oh yeah, what I didn’t like was paying for parking in the Newtown Square. Since I ate in the store (with its 3 seating capacity), I took awhile longer and paid $1.50 for parking. $1.50 along with a $4.25 bowl of oatmeal? That’s a turnoff.
