Any actual good gas station food near Aulani? (NOT the ABC Store)

[WinterSolider]

Super random question, but when we were on the Big Island in February there was a gas station with a kitchen attached that made all sorts of prepared foods. Stir-fry, musubi, baked goods, rice dishes, etc. We ended up eating there often because it was super high quality and affordable, the kind of place where the locals would go for takeout on their lunch breaks. Is there anything similar anyone has discovered around Aulani?

I enjoy watching a few Hawaiian food vloggers, such as Amanda & Felix Eats, Sean Kaleponi, and Bill & Lisa Food Travel. They remind me of Guy Fieri's DDD show. I don't recall if they ate at any gas station food spots in Oahu, but they love to show mom-and-pop, hole-in-the-wall type places throughout Oahu with fantastic food.

If you’re willing to drive to Kamōkila Blvd to the east of Aulani you’ll find…

7-11 Hawai’i… we’re coming through for you!

It does have tons of locally exclusive items that you won’t find at the mainland 7-11s.

Nothing close by, but they do exist as mentioned above.
Best way to find them is to ask the locals.
We have a few favorites we stop at on the way to the North Shore as well.

Not right near Aulani, but the Foodland deli/hot food bar has similar items for reasonable prices. I grabbed things there a lot on my trip.

Funny enough we were just talking with a friend thats been living on Oahu for decades. They say 7-11 is the local secret, most mainlanders wont set foot in one but they said the food is fantastic and worth the trip for. So yea 7-11 in Hawaii.
