This rendering shows the plans for a Makers & Tasters Kewalo food truck development at the former site of the Fisherman's Wharf restaurant.

The temporary Street Grindz Kewalo operation will officially be replaced when Makers & Tasters Kewalo marks its grand opening August 28.

Makers & Tasters’ debut will coincide with the monthly Eat the Street event at 1011 Ala Moana Blvd., at the corner of Ward Avenue.

To prepare for the Makers & Tasters opening, the current Street Grindz operation will close August 17.

WCIT Architecture "transformed our vision into reality," said Poni Askew, Owner and CEO of Street Grindz, in a statement. "They really understood what we wanted to accomplish and led us through the design process seamlessly.”

The venue’s features will include green spaces, a wooden deck, and ample seating, organizers say.

For the debut Eat the Street event, more than 70 vendors will offer food items reflecting the top four themes from past events: chocolate, bacon, spicy, and garlic.

Makers & Tasters Kewalo officially will open twice daily Aug. 29, from 10 a.m. to 3 p.m. and again from 5 p.m. to 10 p.m., with a rotating group of as many as 15 vendors per shift.
