mescat4 Posted October 29, 2013 #1 Share Posted October 29, 2013 Is there still a Puka Dog in Honolulu at International Marketplace? Recent check of their website only shows a store in Kauai. cruise will stop in Nawilli too, but I think that may be too far from the Kauai store.

Rare Lionesss Posted October 30, 2013 #3 Share Posted October 30, 2013 Dont know the date but the International Market Place is closing. Maybe they moved out already. No more over-priced touristy trap stuff. I will miss it, I bought that junk. It was a nice evening outing to see the entertainers at night.

dfb Posted October 30, 2013 #4 Share Posted October 30, 2013 As I recall, Hula Dog appeared in Honolulu as the result of the Puka Dog's owners divorce. Is this it? http://huladoghawaii.com/locations/ Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

mufc99 Posted October 30, 2013 #6 Share Posted October 30, 2013 (edited) Well it was there 3 weeks ago. We got one, plus a tshirt :-) Shame the market place is going. Some bargain stuff there compared with the surrounding shops! Edited October 30, 2013 by mufc99 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
agabbymama Posted October 30, 2013 #7 Share Posted October 30, 2013 On my visits to Oahu, I've always found the Aloha Stadium Swap Meet to have better prices than the International Marketplace. Of course they don't have the restaurants (?) that you find at the Marketplace. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Midnight Blue Posted October 30, 2013 #8 Share Posted October 30, 2013 I believe the International Marketplace is closing at the beginning of the year (2014). Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Iwannabeatraveler Posted November 10, 2013 #9 Share Posted November 10, 2013 We visited Pukadog after seeing it on an Anthony Bourdain episode a couple of years ago. I don't recall it being IN the marketplace, but rather in one of the many strips of shops in Waikiki. Will for sure have to check it out when we are out over Thanksgiving!! It was a fun box to check on the list! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
We Go Cruise Brah Posted November 14, 2013 #10 Share Posted November 14, 2013 Puka Dog as it was on tv is no longer there. You didnt miss much however as I have eaten there in the past and it really is just a hot dog. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ladykiane Posted November 17, 2013 #11 Share Posted November 17, 2013 Puka Dog is still open in the International Market Place, I walked by it today. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
We Go Cruise Brah Posted November 17, 2013 #12 Share Posted November 17, 2013 Puka Dog is still open in the International Market Place, I walked by it today. It is no longer Puka Dog, it was bought out and is now called Hula Dog. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
slidergirl Posted November 17, 2013 #13 Share Posted November 17, 2013 It is no longer Puka Dog, it was bought out and is now called Hula Dog. Hula Dog is the result of the divorce between the owners of Puka Dog. They could both have stands, but couldn't both use the name... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ladykiane Posted November 18, 2013 #14 Share Posted November 18, 2013 At the International Market Place the sign still says Puka Dog. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
mescat4 Posted November 18, 2013 Author #15 Share Posted November 18, 2013 Our cruise will not port in Honolulu until mid-January. I understand that International Marketplace will close after first of the year. Will the Aloha Dog stand close as well? Also will Hank's Dog be affected by the closing?
