MoDo Hawaii

This Hawaiian import launched a Mitsuwa pop-up a few years ago, and to the relief of many a mochi-donut lover, it’s now a permanent fixture. Best eaten straight away while still warm, their freshly fried treats are glazed in four daily flavors (black sesame, cookies and cream, strawberry, and pandan) and two rotating flavors (anything from milk tea to tiramisu). Plus, the small, snack-worthy MoDo Bites in maple bacon or strawberry funnel cake are only available at this location! Where your regular donut is airy or flurry, the use of stretchy glutinous rice affords MoDo’s donuts more bite and a superior springy texture. Pre-pandemic, customers were willing to wait in long lines, but MoDo now offers online pre-orders as well.
