Cafe Prana Nui

Back on May 31, I took this pic of a curiously painted student transport vessel in the parking lot of the Haiku Marketplace:

"What the hell is this?" I thought to myself.  This was right before I posted my series of pics on Maui cruisers and abandoned vehicles on June 1.  Naturally, I thought someone abandoned their mobile home and some inspired locals felt like expressing themselves after visiting the paint section at Home Depot.

In all seriousness, the purpose of this bus was revealed today in the form of the "soft opening" and Hawaiian blessing of Cafe Prana Nui in Haiku.

It's a short bus restaurant!  Why didn't I think of that?

To quote the giant banner, with a focus on "organic, local, vegetarian, macrobiotic, ayurvedic, aloha" inspired cuisine, I'm anxious to try their offerings.

Note: the "TACO" sign in the below image actually belongs to the food stand NEXT to Cafe Prana Nui.  Also really tasty IMO!
