Back in the day and even today we call this place Doe Fang even though the new name is Uncle Clay's House of Pure Aloha. I had heard that it now serves ono-kine shave ice, so me and Geri went to check it out the other week. It's in the Aina Haina Shopping Center.
Here's Uncle Clay. The place is totally refurbished and does not look anything like the Doe Fang of old. But Uncle Clay? He's still the same . . . oozing Aloha.
Sorry . . . blurry . . .
I had a small strawberry/li hing shave ice with vanilla ice cream. It was super good . . . especially DA ICE CREAM!! Da ice cream was so so so so ono. I might even say the best in the history of mankind.
Uncle Clay only has vanilla and chocolate ice cream, but you can click here to find out more about the Hawaii-made Tropical Dreams Ice Cream and where you can find them.

I don't think I've ever seen Li hing flavor on my island yet, I might be wrong though...we have a place here called Mt Lam Lam...they have shaved ice surprise, the surprise is the soft serve vanilla ice cream that they hide in the middle : )
Susan, I just googled Mt Lam Lam. The halo halo looks good!
I see "Dream Sauce" on the menu. What is that?
This is totally a guess, Anon . . . but I think it's like condensed milk.
so ono looking! gotta go here next time I'm home.
Anon, I neva like say but . . . . aaaa yah . . .
No forget da ice cream, Kat.
Pure ALOHA! We always get a kick out of visiting Uncle Clay!
He sure can jaw yah, Dean!
Yum, looks ono. Have to try it.
Mmmm... This sounds great!
It's better now, he talks less. When it was Doe Fang, i would ask myself 'do we have the time to listen to Uncle Clay?' if not we shoot it to 7-11 instead. It was impossible to get an Icee and run, we would have to share our Pure Aloha to everyone in the store. Hahaha!
You really should drop by next time you're in the area, Erick.
It's so refreshing, Kay.
That is soooo funny, Dean!
